Abstract
An integrated circuit for an imaging device including an array of photo-sensitive areas is disclosed. In one aspect the integrated circuit includes a first multi-layer structure and a second multi-layer structure arranged over a first and a second photo-sensitive area, respectively. The second multi-layer structures each have a bottom and a top reflective structure and a spacer layer arranged therebetween. The spacer layer has a thickness such that the multi-layer structure selectively transmits a narrow range of wavelengths of electro-magnetic radiation. The bottom and top reflective structures include a stack of alternating layers of a first and a second material. Thickness and/or material of the alternating layers of the first multi-layer structure differ from thickness and/or material of the alternating layers of the second multi-layer structure.
