1. A method for manufacturing an image sensor, comprising the successive steps or:
- defining, in a semiconductor substrate extending on a semiconductor support with an interposed insulating layer, through trenches delimiting columns,forming one or several pixels at a first end of each of the columns; and
deforming the structure so that the second ends of each of said columns come closer to each other or draw away from each other to form a surface in the shape of a polyhedral cap.
