This phenomenon can be explained in terms of the multiple scattering effect, where particles undergo several scattering events before reaching the CMOS image sensor array14,15,16. The result is the widening of the scattering angle and hence a decrease in the forward scattering intensity. This ...
Several challenges arise with this acquisition approach: the frame rate or readout time of the image sensor has to be fast enough to cope with the neutron flux. The emitted light has to be amplified to create a signal surpassing the electron noise of the image sensor. Finally, an algorithm...
Maximum temperature difference between CMOS sensor and ambient air may be reached when the cooling runs at 100% power. However, temperature cannot be regulated in such case, camera has no room for keeping the sensor temperature when the ambient temperature rises. Typical temperature drop can be ac...
“and combined with its integration ability, CMOS sensor technology is taking market share away from CCD technology.” Seijnaeve explained that because CCD sensors can’t remove the charge as fast as is needed in high-speed imaging, phenomena like ghosting can occur. In addition, CCD sensors ...
Preliminary MT9D011: 1/3.2-Inch 2-Megapixel Digital Image Sensor Feature Description "Offset_gain" is determined by the 2-bit code from Reg0x5A[1:0], as shown in Table 11. These step sizes are not exact; increasing the stage0 ADC gain from 2 to 4 decreases the step size significance...
These structures have been applied to c-Si solar cells and image sensors to improve photo-electro conversion efficiencies and sensor sensitivities8, 9. However, the needle-shaped surface has issues when applied to consumer image sensors, which have small pixel sizes. The random surface structure ...

The signals from the sensor array 101 are processed by a sensor reading structure 201, which is formed in accordance with the present invention. As will be later explained, this novel reading structure allows the reading of two line signals from two separate rows of pixels simultaneously, without...
such as 40 μm×40 μm with a fill factor of 44%. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that many different pixel and array sizes can be built using the same sensor structure by slightly modifying the process. The present invention is not in any way restricted by any pixel...
This sensor can also include a micro-lens array101for further reducing crosstalk. As explained above the addition of the micro-lens array permits the pixel size to be substantially reduced without creating serious crosstalk problems. Applicants have developed preliminary designs for pixel sizes as smal...
