Abstract

Pixel electrodes have end portions inclined at inclination angles α, where 30°≦α≦85°, relative to a substrate surface of a substrate. An organic layer disposed on the pixel electrodes is formed by vapor deposition using deposition beams that enter the substrate surface at incident angles θ smaller than 90°−α max , where α max is the maximum inclination angle among the inclination angles of the end portions of the pixel electrodes, under a deposition substrate temperature condition lower than the glass transition temperature of the organic layer.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. An organic image sensor having a plurality of pixel portions on a substrate, the organic image sensor comprising:
a plurality of pixel electrodes arranged apart from one another on the substrate and corresponding in number to the number of the pixel portions;
an organic layer disposed in the form of a continuous film on and between the pixel electrodes, the organic layer including a photoelectric conversion layer shared by the plurality of pixel portions;…
