Study of the optimum charge-transfer image sensor
Abstract
The optimum structure for a solid state image sensor is investigated. The optimum structure consists of diffused diodes for photosensing, and either a bucket brigade or charge coupled transfer register for signal readout. A matrix array with two tetrode bucket brigade readout registers is studied and models describing the operating mechanisms of the bucket brigade and image sensor devices are developed.
