Zusammenfassung:An active pixel sensor includes at least one pixel, including: a photoactive area, and at least one polysilicon component arranged over the photoactive area such that a photon may pass the polysilicon component prior to entering the photoactive area, wherein the polysilicon component includes a diffraction structure configured to diffract incoming photons and thereby extend the light path of the incoming photons within the photoactive area.
