Abstract
An exemplary embodiment of the present invention provides an infrared image sensor including: a sensor pixel connected with a data lead-out line and a scan line disposed on a surface of a substrate; a wavelength converter positioned in the sensor pixel and disposed in an internal movement path of infrared rays, including an anti-Stokes material that absorbs infrared rays and converts them into visible rays to emit them; and a photosensor part positioned in the sensor pixel to sense the visible rays converted by the wavelength converter.
