US Patent 8466040 Method of manufacturing semiconductor device

The method may include providing a first substrate, the first substrate including a sacrificial layer, an active layer having an image sensor circuit portion and an interconnection layer electrically connected to the image sensor circuit portion sequentially stacked; performing an edge-trimming process with respect to the first substrate to form an interconnection layer pattern, an active layer pattern and a sacrificial layer pattern; adhering the first substrate to a second substrate; removing the sacrificial layer pattern to expose the active layer pattern; and forming a transillumination layer to provide light to an image sensor portion on the active layer pattern.
