  • Abstract
    A 2/3-in 400k-pixel stack-CCD image sensor overlaid with an amorphous silicon photoconversion layer has been developed with FIT architecture. The image sticking, which occurred under 10000× standard-incident light conditions, is completely suppressed to the invisible level with bias charge injection operation into the a-Si photoconversion layer. Furthermore, the fixed pattern noise (FPN) of 30 electronsp-p at 60°C has been achieved by 0.6-V biased storage diodes
