Abstract

1483647 Charge-coupled devices HEWLETTPACKARD CO 19 Aug 1974 [24 Sept 1973] 36405/74 Heading H1K A charge-coupled device formed in a P-type substrate 11 has an N-type ion impanted surface layer 23, in which charge transfer actually occurs, and a plurality of shallower P-type ion-inplanted surface regions 25 located relative to the overlying 2-phase connected electrodes 17, 19, 21 so as to inpart directionality to the transfer of charges. An additional funtion of the regions 25 is to divert charge in the course of transfer between adjacent storage areas into the bulk of the layer 23, as shown by arrows 27, and away from the deleterious effect of trapping centres at the interface between the semiconductor and the insulation 13. The layer 23 serves to increase charge carrying capacity. Each electrode may include a first storage section 17A, &c., and a second transfer section, 17B &c., the two sections being separated by a second insulating layer 15 and each second section 17B overlying a corresponding P-type region 25, which region is formed by implantation through a masking layer constituted by the first electrode sections 17A, &c. The two sections 17A, 17B may be interconnected as shown, or the second section 17B may float electrically. Suitable materials are as follows: for the substrate 11, P-type Si, GaAs or GaP; as dopant for the layer 23, P, As or Sb; as dopant for the regions 25, B, Ga or In; as insulation 13, 15, SiO 2 , Si 3 N 4 or Al 2 O 3 ; as electrodes 17 &c., polysilicon or thin metal. Conductivity types may be reversed. Reference has been directed by the Comptroller to Specification 1,376,640.
