Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of semiconductor manufacturing, in particular to an image sensor and a preparation method thereof.
Background
As CMOS Image Sensor (CIS) Photodiodes (PD) are increasingly reduced in size, charges more easily escape the interface to generate dark current, which generates white pixels (white pixels), affecting imaging quality.

But because diffusion and escape of P-type ions (such as boron ions) are accelerated in the subsequent RTA process, the isolation effect is affected, and white pixels are generated when photoelectrons escape from the silicon surface in the PD. Therefore, a new process is needed to solve the charge leakage problem of the CMOS image sensor.
