Abstract

1480761 Imaging devices FAIRCHILD CAMERA & INSTRUMENT CORP 31 July 1974 [27 Aug 1973] 33848/74 Heading H1K An imaging array comprises a plurality of light sensitive cells each associated with a different element of one of a plurality of chargecoupled shift registers in such a way that light generated charge pockets can be transferred from each cell to the associated element. As described the cells (Fig. 1), arranged in columns in a P type silicon substrate, each consist of an ion-implanted N type region 12 bounded on three sides by a P + channel stop region 20, the open side communicating with the corresponding N region 14 of a register element via an N- implanted barrier region 22, the transfer electrode system, disposed over superposed silicon nitride and dioxide layers 26, 24, consisting of a first set of N type polysilicon strips 32 each overlying a column of cells and a set of N-doped strips 32 of an overall polysilicon layer normal to, and oxide isolated from, the first set. A light stop 36 of oxide insulated aluminium overlies each shift register. The array has an input shift register (Fig. 3 not shown) to enable its use with an electronic rather than the optical input, and the plurality of shift registers feed into an output register through which the charge pockets are transferred to an output amplifier.
