Samsung Announces 8.4MP Sensor with 1.4um Pixels

Digitimes: "Highlight at the forum was the unveiling of an 8.4 megapixel CMOS image sensor with a 1.4-micron pixel design, highlighting that this CMOS image sensor delivers the same quality as charge-coupled device (CCD) image sensors by implementing light sensing features and minimized noise levels. Samsung also makes the device with an extended photo diode technology that enhances higher light sensitivity and saturation levels, resulting in an enhanced fill factor. No production schedule of this CMOS image sensor has been announced yet."

The article looks like automatic translation to me.

Same wording appears in Samsung PR on Yahoo: "The new CIS chip provides a high signal to noise ratio (SNR), a key measure of overall image quality. Samsung achieved the high-resolution level by implementing advanced light sensing features and minimized noise levels. Notably, an extended photo diode technology was implemented to achieve higher light sensitivity and saturation levels, resulting in an enhanced fill factor."
