Abstract

Example embodiments disclose an image sensor and a fabricating method thereof. An image sensor may include a semiconductor layer with a light-receiving region and a light-blocking region, the semiconductor layer including photoelectric conversion devices, a light-blocking layer on a surface of the semiconductor layer, color filters on the semiconductor layer and the light-blocking layer, and micro lenses on the color filters. The color filters are absent from an interface region between the light-receiving region and the light-blocking region.
