Abstract

An infrared image sensor component includes at least one III-V compound layer on the semiconductor substrate, in which the portion of the III-V compound layer(s) uncovered by the patterns is utilized as active pixel region for detecting the incident infrared ray. The infrared image sensor component includes at least one transistor coupled to the active pixel region, and charge generated by the active pixel region is transmitted to the transistor.
