Abstract

An image sensing device is provided to include: a substrate including a photoelectric conversion layer configured to generate photocharges corresponding to the intensity of incident light; a plurality of doping regions disposed along a migration path of the photocharges and doped with dopants in different doping concentrations; and a gate dielectric layer disposed over the substrate and having a gate dielectric layer portion overlapping the plurality of doping regions, the gate dielectric layer portion having a varying thickness that increases along the migration path of the photocharges.
