ABSTRACT:
In one aspect, an image sensor is provided which includes an active pixel array and a control circuit connected to the active pixel array. The active pixel array of this aspect includes a plurality of first gate dielectric layers, and the control circuit includes a plurality of second gate dielectric layers, where the first gate dielectric layers are plasma nitrided silicon oxide layers.
