Semiconductor device

Abstract

A semiconductor device includes a substrate, a gate pattern, and a conductive line pattern. The substrate has a first surface and a second surface and includes an isolation pattern that defines plural pixel regions, and a photoelectric conversion region in each pixel region and a transistor for each of the pixel regions. The gate pattern of the transistor is disposed on the first surface of the substrate. The conductive line pattern is disposed on the first surface of the substrate and vertically overlaps the isolation pattern in plan view. A top surface of the conductive line pattern is located at the same level as a top surface of the gate pattern, a width of the conductive line pattern is less than a width of the isolation pattern, and the isolation pattern comprises a conducive isolation pattern and a dielectric isolation pattern.
