US Patent 10008544 Image sensor and electronic device including the same

An image sensor includes at least one first pixel configured to sense light in a visible light wavelength spectrum and a second pixel configured to sense light in an infrared light wavelength spectrum. The second pixel includes a first photoelectric device defined in the second pixel. The first photoelectric device includes an infrared light absorption layer between a first electrode and a second electrode and configured to selectively absorb light in an infrared spectrum. The second pixel may be configured to compensate the luminance sensitivity of the image sensor. The first and second pixels may be included in a unit pixel group. The image sensor may include an array of multiple unit pixel groups arranged in one or more rows and one or more columns.
