Abstract
A description is presented of state-of-the-art 1024×1024 pixel CCD (charge coupled device) imagers. Additionally, in order to provide the highest possible quantum efficiency, special back-side thinning, post-processing, antireflection coating, and mounting/packaging capabilities have been developed. A high degree of capability has been achieved in building high performance camera systems to utilize the potential of the CCD. The basic design and philosophy behind this CCD are outlined, along with test and characterization results
