Definitions
- the present invention relates to a distance sensor that measures a delay time when pulsed light projected from a light source bounces back from a measurement object.
- the method (1) projects pulsed light, shapes the pulse waveform by detecting the peak of the received signal, and measures the delay time digitally using high-speed pulses. is there. In this case, in order for the received signal to be pulsed, it cannot be realized unless the light is sufficiently bright, and its application is limited.
- (2) and (3) are close to each other.
- the method (2) is the same as CCD and CMOS. This is realized by an integrated process, using charge transfer of CCD using modulated light with a high frequency of 20 MHz, and the distribution ratio of charges to two nodes in synchronization with the modulated light. Utilizing that depends on the delay time. Costs are high because a mixed CCD and CMOS process is required.
- the method (3) uses the structure of the CCD, and charges generated by pulse-modulated modulated light are transferred alternately to the two nodes, and the distribution ratio depends on the delay time of the modulated light. Use. Since this also uses CCD, a special process is required. Although only one-dimensional sensors (line sensors) have been reported, it is difficult to realize a two-dimensional sensor (area sensor) using only a CCD, considering that all pixels are driven at a high frequency simultaneously. it is conceivable that.
- the method of (5) is not detailed in structure, but has a structure in which the charges generated in the photodiode portion are transferred to the floating diffusion layer by two transfer gates.
- sufficient performance cannot be obtained unless the charge can be completely transferred from the photodiode to the two floating diffusion layers.
- CMOS complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor
- Addition is necessary and the production cost is high.
- the pixel parallel drive circuit cannot be integrated, so a process in which the CCD and CMOS are integrated is necessary. After all, it is difficult to achieve both low cost and high performance. Disclosure of the invention

- Fig. 1 shows the configuration of one pixel of the distance sensor of the present invention. Depending on the application, it is possible to use this single pixel alone, but by disposing it in one or two dimensions, a range image sensor is constructed.
- Fig. 1 (a) is a cross-sectional view
- Fig. 1 (b) is a view from the semiconductor surface side (from the top in the cross-sectional view).
- Figure 2 shows the potential distribution on the semiconductor surface to explain its operation.
- An insulating layer (3) is provided on the semiconductor substrate (2 0), and two photogate electrodes (1, 2) for charge transfer are provided thereon.
- a floating diffusion layer (5, 6) for taking out charges from the light receiving layer (4) is provided, and a reset gate electrode and a diffusion layer for supplying a reset potential are provided outside the floating diffusion layer.
- a p-type silicon substrate is used as the semiconductor substrate (20)
- a field oxide film is used as the insulating layer (3)
- a polysilicon electrode is used as the photogate electrodes (1, 2).
- two polysilicon electrodes are formed on the field oxide film as close as possible. These (TX1 and TX2) are operated by applying repetitive pulse signals with opposite phases to each other. It is assumed that the polysilicon electrode is thin enough to allow sufficient transmission for the wavelength of received light. If a compound of silicon and silicon called a silicide is formed on the polysilicon and there is not enough transmission power for the received light, the silicide should not be formed, Or a process is required to remove it after formation. Note that FIG. 1 assumes that a LOCOS (Local oxidation of silicon) process is used as a field oxide film formation process. In Figure 2, this is simplified to illustrate the principle.
- LOCOS Local oxidation of silicon
- the semiconductor directly under the electrode has a low concentration so that a fringe electric field as large as possible can be obtained.
- a low-concentration p-substrate is used to form a p-type well and an n-type well to form a CMOS device. In this process, the concentration is lowered so as not to form P-type wells.
- a channel stop impurity may be introduced under the field oxide film to prevent inversion, but this should be avoided. This can be done by changing the mask pattern used in the standard CMOS process, but if this is not the case, a new mask and process must be added.
- Figure 2 shows an example of the distribution of potential when 0V is applied to TX2 and 3.3V is applied to TX1, for example.
- almost all the light incident from the opening enters the floating diffusion layer (n + region) on the right side.
- the voltage shown in FIG. 2 is merely an example, and the present invention is not limited to this.
- the field oxide film is relatively thick, so the electric field applied to the semiconductor surface is reduced. It can be expected that the fringe electric field will increase accordingly. At this time, it is necessary to prevent potential peaks at the gap between the two polysilicon electrodes.
- the TX1 When n-type impurities are introduced into the polysilicon that serves as the photogate electrode, there is a work function difference between the semiconductor substrate and the photogate electrode.
- the TX1 When a positive high voltage (for example, 3.3V) and 0V of TX2 are applied, a potential peak is created in the gap, and the charge on the TX2 side may not be transferred to the TX1 side.
- potential peaks can be eliminated by applying a negative voltage (eg -IV) to TX2.
- a negative voltage eg -IV
- the structure of the substrate is a method in which a low-concentration p-type silicon layer is formed on a high-concentration p substrate by means such as epitaxy, or by means such as epitaxy growth on an n-type substrate.
- a low-concentration P-type silicon layer can be used. These occur deep in the semiconductor and are effective in reducing the components that are slowly incorporated by diffusion and improving the distance resolution.
- Fig. 3 shows a block diagram of a distance image sensor in which the pixel circuit of Fig. 1 is arranged in two dimensions.
- Figure 4 shows the operation timing diagram.
- the pulsed light source After resetting all the control signals R to High for the two floating layers of all pixels, the pulsed light source is emitted, and in synchronization with this, repeated pulses of TX1 and TX2 are sent to all pixels. Give them all together and operate for a certain period of time. After that, the pulsed light source stops emitting and the voltage of the floating diffusion layer is read out. Reading is performed to the noise cancellation circuit of the column every horizontal line, and after performing noise cancellation, horizontal scanning is performed. The selection of one horizontal line is performed by applying the control signal S to the pixel selection switch of the buffer amplifier in the pixel, and the signal of the horizontal line appears on the vertical signal line.
- a circuit that takes the difference between the signal level and the level when the floating diffusion layer is reset to reduce fixed pattern noise and i / f noise generated by the buffer amplifier in the pixel is a noise cancellation circuit.
- the noise cancellation circuit is a circuit that samples the signal level and the reset level at ⁇ S, and calculates the difference. Since the noise cancellation circuit itself is not so much related to the essence of the present invention, the description thereof is omitted.
- Ip is the photocurrent generated by the received light
- To is the width of the optical pulse
- Td is the delay time of the optical pulse.
- Equation (5) Equation (5) can be expressed as follows using output signal voltages VI and V2. [Equation 6]
- the configuration in Figure 2 is susceptible to background light.
- the background light charge processing is included even during signal readout, and the background light removal time is different for each row, making background light removal processing difficult.
- Figure 5 shows the configuration of the pixel circuit that is not affected by background light during signal readout.
- Figure 6 shows the timing diagram for reading out the signal from the background light only and removing the effect of the background light.
- MOS transistors (9, 10) for separating two floating diffusion layers are provided on the right and left sides, respectively, and the gates are controlled by a signal SH. While receiving pulsed light, keep SH high and connect the two diffusion layers. After pulse light reception is complete, set SH low and separate the two diffusion layers. As a result, by reading the voltage of the diffusion layer separated from the light receiving portion, it is possible to eliminate the influence of the charge due to the background light added at the time of reading.
- This accumulation time is adjusted to the time required for signal reading of all pixels. To keep the detection sensitivity the same, keep SH high.
- Figure 6 shows a single horizontal reading, which is performed for all horizontal signals.
- the background light accumulation time is the same. If the accumulation time (TL) during pulsed light irradiation and the time to read all pixels (TLR) are different, this must be taken into account when removing the background light.
- the MOS transistor source is interposed through the n layer as shown in FIG. It is also possible to take a structure connected to the floating diffusion layer of the source (or drain). In order to secure a sufficient light receiving area, when the gate width (depth direction) of the light receiving part is wide,

- 3 5 is the source or drain region of the MOS transistor (n + diffusion layer) )
- 36 indicates metal wiring for connection to the diffusion layer or the photogate electrode.
- the TOF distance sensor can increase the separation of charges when distributing the charges to the two charge detectors according to the amount of delay of the pulse. Can be high.
- the interdigital electrode When the interdigital electrode is nested as shown in Fig. 8, the cross section along the line AA in Fig. 8 The distribution of surface potential along the line is shown in Fig. 10.
- the direction of charge transfer is perpendicular to the charge detector, so even if the teeth of the comb electrode are long and the opening is sufficiently large, The separation of the inflow of charges to the two charge detectors can be increased, and the width of the electrodes at the comb teeth can be made sufficiently small, so that the fringe electric field can be used effectively and the resolution is improved. To do.
- the light input to the light-receiving layer is scanned from a two-dimensional surface by a rotating polygon mirror or a vibrating mirror. This is done by providing beam scanning means.
