摘要： The method for the formation of a silicide film herein provided comprises the steps of forming an Ni film on the surface of a substrate mainly composed of Si and then heat-treating the resulting Ni film to thus form an NiSi film as an upper layer of the substrate, wherein, prior to the heat-treatment for the formation of the NiSi film, the Ni film is subjected to a preannealing treatment using H2 gas at a temperature which is less than the heat-treatment temperature and which never causes the formation of any NiSi film in order to remove any impurity present in the Ni film, and the resulting Ni film is then subjected to a silicide-annealing treatment to thus form the NiSi film.

摘要： The present invention is directed to provide a solid-state imaging apparatus and a method of driving the solid-state imaging apparatus. If the total read out time of all of the pixels is shortened when effective pixels are thinned out to be read out without thinning out OB pixels, then the reset time period of each row is different from each other, and the problem of uneven charge accumulation time periods is caused. An improvement by the present invention is that, if no signals are read out from a part of the rows of the pixels in an effective pixel region to skip the rows, then the time period in which the rows to be skipped are selected is made to be shorter than the time period in which the rows from which signals are read out are selected, and the pixels in the optical black pixel region and the pixels in the effective pixel region are driven by the drive pulses of patterns different from each other.

摘要： In an amplifying type MOS sensor having a 3-transistor construction, when a frame rate is raised, an accumulation time of a frame just after the switching of a drive mode becomes short. When a gain correction is made to compensate a lack of accumulation time, a deterioration in picture quality is caused. A read out scan and a reset scan are executed in parallel in the frame before the switching of the drive mode, thereby preventing that a time period for resetting a pixel is overlapped with a time period for holding a pixel signal into a holding unit.
