摘要
The first image sensor with submicron pixel pitch is reported, Test structures comprising 16 x 16 pixel Full-Frame-Transfer (FFT) CCDs with 0.5 mu m pixels are fabricated in a single-poly 110nm CMOS process. Characterization results demonstrate charge transfer efficiency of 99.9%, QE of 48% at 550nm, conversion gain of 193 mu V/e-, well capacity of 3550e-, dark current of 50e-/sec with nonuniformity of 25%, peak SNR of 28dB and dynamic range of 60dB. These performance metrics are within the range of consumer image sensors and suggest that further reduction in pixel size is feasible.
