First, we used optical ray tracing software, ZEMAX, to simulate a smartphone with FoD and a touching finger. We then further discussed how the aperture and microlens influence the fingerprint image in this design. Through numerical analysis and process constraint adjustment to optimize the structural design, we determined that a modulation transfer function (MTF) of 60.8% can be obtained when the thickness of the black matrix is 4 \u03bcm, allowing successful manufacturing using photolithography process technology. Finally, we used this filter element to take fingerprint images. After image processing, a clearly visible fingerprint pattern was successfully captured.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s23218731","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,26]],"date-time":"2023-10-26T07:22:15Z","timestamp":1698304935000},"page":"8731","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["The Design and Fabrication of Large-Area Under-Screen Fingerprint Sensors with Optimized Aperture and Microlens Structures"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Chih-Chieh","family":"Yeh","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate Institute of Photonics and Optoelectronics, National Taiwan University, Taipei 10617, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Teng-Wei","family":"Huang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate Institute of Photonics and Optoelectronics, National Taiwan University, Taipei 10617, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"You-Ren","family":"Lin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate Institute of Photonics and Optoelectronics, National Taiwan University, Taipei 10617, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Guo-Dung","family":"Su","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate Institute of Photonics and Optoelectronics, National Taiwan University, Taipei 10617, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"133","DOI":"10.1109\/4.654945","article-title":"A Fingerprint Sensor Based on the Feedback Capacitive Sensing Scheme","volume":"33","author":"Tartagni","year":"1998","journal-title":"IEEE J.
