Abstract

A substrate for a front-side-type image sensor includes, successively, a supporting semiconductor substrate, an electrically insulating layer, and a semiconductor layer, known as the active layer. The active layer is an epitaxial layer of silicon-germanium having a germanium content of less than 10%. The disclosure also relates to a method for the production of such a substrate.
