IMAGE SENSOR INCLUDING COLOR SEPARATING LENS ARRAY AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS INCLUDING THE IMAGE SENSOR: abstract simplified (18208566)

• This abstract for appeared for patent application number 18208566 Titled 'IMAGE SENSOR INCLUDING COLOR SEPARATING LENS ARRAY AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS INCLUDING THE IMAGE SENSOR'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an image sensor that uses a color separating lens array. The image sensor has a sensor substrate with two pixels, one for sensing first wavelength light and the other for sensing second wavelength light. The color separating lens array has a region that condenses the first wavelength light onto the first pixel. The area of this condensing region is larger than the area of the first pixel, and the distance between the sensor substrate and the lens array is shorter than the focal distance of the condensing region for the first wavelength light.

Original Abstract Submitted

Provided is an image sensor including a color separating lens array. The image sensor includes a sensor substrate including a first pixel configured to sense first wavelength light, and a second pixel configured to sense second wavelength light; and a color separating lens array including a first wavelength light condensing region in which the first wavelength light is condensed onto the first pixel, wherein an area of the first wavelength light condensing region is greater than an area of the first pixel, and a distance between the sensor substrate and the color separating lens array is less than a focal distance of the first wavelength light condensing region with respect to the first wavelength light.
