    Abstract: According to one embodiment, there is provided a solid-state image sensor including a photoelectric conversion layer, and a multilayer interference filter. The multilayer interference filter is arranged to conduct light of a particular color, of incident light, selectively to the photoelectric conversion layer. The multilayer interference filter has a laminate structure in which a first layer having a first refraction index and a second layer having a second refraction index are repeatedly laminated, and a third layer which is in contact with a lower surface of the laminate structure and has a third refraction index. A lowermost layer of the laminate structure is the second layer. The third refraction index is not equal to the first refraction index and is higher than the second refraction index.

    Abstract: A photovoltaic element including a resonator is arranged on a semiconductor structure (5) that is constituted by a region without electromagnetic damping (5a), whose upper plane forms the plane of incidence (3), and a region with electromagnetic damping (5b), both regions being bound by virtual boundaries (6) of variation in material properties. At least one 2D-3D resonator (4) is surrounded by a dielectric (10) and configured on the semiconductor structure (5), with a relative electrode (11) bordering on the region with electromagnetic damping (5b). The photovoltaic element having a resonator arranged on a semiconductor structure (5) uses the structure (5) and its characteristics to set suitable conditions for the impingement of an electromagnetic wave and its transformation to a stationary form of the electromagnetic field and not to secure the generation of an electric charge. The 2D-3D resonator produces electric current or voltage, which is conducted with the help of a nonlinear component (15) to a connecting component (16). The nonlinear element (15) shapes the signal on the resonant circuit; this signal is then filtered (rectified) to a further utilizable shape. The planar and spatial resonator (2D-3D resonator) is designed in such a manner that prevents the electromagnetic wave passing through the semiconductor structure (5) from being reflected back to the 2D-3D resonator created in the structure (5). The semiconductor structure (5) does not generate a backward electromagnetic wave propagating in the direction of the impinging electromagnetic wave emitted by a source such as the Sun. The region with electromagnetic damping (5b) has the function of suppressing the reflected wave. Thus, the resonator behaves like an ideal impedance-matched component for the proposed frequency spectrum. The semiconductor structure (5) is set in such a manner that the conductivity increases in the electromagnetic damping region (5b) in the direction of the relative electrode (11), which leads to a wide resonance curve in the photovoltaic element components.

    Abstract: A CCD image sensor is provided with a pixel set. The pixel set is composed of first and second pixels and a microlens. The pixels are arranged side by side in a horizontal direction. The microlens has a hemispheric shape. A diameter of the microlens is larger than a length of a rectangular region, being an external shape of the first and second pixels, in a height direction. The rectangular region has a height and width ratio of approximately 1:2. The pixel sets are arranged in a width direction of the rectangular region to constitute a pixel row. In the CCD image sensor, the pixel rows are arranged in the height direction of the rectangular region, with the adjacent pixel rows shifted from each other in the horizontal direction by half pitch of the rectangular region.

    Abstract: A radiation detector is provided that includes a photodiode having a radiation absorber with a graded multilayer structure. Each layer of the absorber is formed from a semiconductor material, such as HgCdTe. A first of the layers is formed to have a first predetermined wavelength cutoff. A second of the layers is disposed over the first layer and beneath the first surface of the absorber through which radiation is received. The second layer has a graded composition structure of the semiconductor material such that the wavelength cutoff of the second layer varies from a second predetermined wavelength cutoff to the first predetermined wavelength cutoff such that the second layer has a progressively smaller bandgap than the first bandgap of the first layer. The graded multilayer radiation absorber structure enables carriers to flow toward a conductor that is used for measuring the radiation being sensed by the radiation absorber.
