Abstract
The WKB method has been used to extract the asymptotic behavior of the solution to the charge transfer equation in a CCD with thermal diffusion and fringing-field drift. This enables an excellent approximation to be calculated for the decay time constant and charge distribution while using only a small number of parameters in a variational function.
