Abstract

An image includes a semiconductor substrate having a first surface and a second surface that face each other; a first photoelectric conversion region and a second photoelectric conversion region provided in the semiconductor substrate; a gapfill pattern that is interposed between the first and second photoelectric conversion regions and extends from the second surface toward the first surface, wherein a first side surface of the gapfill pattern faces the first photoelectric conversion region and a second side surface of the gapfill pattern faces the second photoelectric conversion region; and a conductive pattern disposed on the gapfill pattern. The conductive pattern includes a first portion disposed on the first side surface, a second portion disposed on the second side surface, and a connecting portion that is disposed on a top surface of the gapfill pattern and electrically connects the first portion to the second portion.
