Abstract
A method of fabricating a semiconductor image sensor device is disclosed. A plurality of radiation-sensing regions is formed in a substrate. The radiation-sensing regions are formed in a non-scribe-line region of the image sensor device. An opening is formed in a scribe-line region of the image sensor device by etching the substrate in the scribe-line region. A portion of the substrate remains in the scribe-line region after the etching. The opening is then filled with an organic material.
