Abstract: Embodiments related to controlling of photo-generated charge carriers are described and depicted. At least one embodiment provides a semiconductor substrate comprising a photo-conversion region to convert light into photo-generated charge carriers; a region to accumulate the photo-generated charge carriers; a control electrode structure including a plurality of control electrodes to generate a potential distribution such that the photo-generated carriers are guided towards the region to accumulate the photo-generated charge carriers based on signals applied to the control electrode structure; a non-uniform doping profile in the semiconductor substrate to generate an electric field with vertical field vector components in at least a part of the photo-conversion region.

Abstract: An example multi-turn counter (MTC) sensor includes a magnetic strip that includes a domain wall generator located at a first end of the magnetic strip, where the domain wall generator is to generate at least one domain wall in the magnetic strip, the at least one domain wall configured to propagate based on a magnetic field caused by a magnet; wherein a location of the at least one domain wall indicates a turn count of the magnetic field of the magnet; the turn count to indicate one or more of a predefined fraction of a full rotation of the magnetic field; an end tip located at a second end of the magnetic strip, where the second end of the magnetic strip is opposite the first end; and a plurality of overlapping strip turns that cause a plurality of crossings in the magnetic strip.

Abstract: Some aspects described herein involve a multi-turn counter (MTC) system that includes a first MTC sensor configured to sense a rotating magnetic field coupled to a rotatable object. The first MTC sensor may have a first sense of rotation detection. The MTC system may include a second MTC sensor may be configured to sense the rotating magnetic field. The second MTC sensor may have a second sense of rotation detection which is opposite to the first sense of rotation detection, and the second MTC sensor is configured to sense the rotating magnetic field according to the second sense of rotation.
