    Abstract: To eliminate a residual image due to residual charge in an image sensor circuit and provide an effective bright-time output, the image sensor is provided with a reset switch connected to a photodiode. After the potential of the photodiode is held through a first amplifier in two holding circuits as an image signal and an initial signal, the initial signal and the image signal are sequentially output through a second amplifier. By resetting the photodiode to a desired potential to produce an initial signal, a residual image can be eliminated.

    Abstract: A light receiving element is provided with a phototransistor and a light receiving MOS diode proximate thereto and having a gate electrode covering a portion of the base region of the phototransistor. The gate electrode permits transmission of a portion of received light. The light receiving MOS diode forms an inversion layer in a substrate adjacent the base of a phototransistor during the time photo charges are stored, and generated photo charges are stored in the inversion region and the base region of the phototransistor. During the storage state, the potential of the inversion region and the base region of the phototransistor is limited, so that the intensity of an electric field applied to an insulating film between the electrode and the semiconductor substrate is 0.7 MV/cm or less. Alternatively, the potential of the electrode in a waiting state is fixed or made floating, so that an electric field is not applied, and recombination at the surface of the semiconductor substrate is made stable.

    Abstract: An alignment mark which is employed for the alignment of a semiconductor substrate during a lithography process in the production of a semiconductor element, includes a trough-like pattern having a width roughly equal to the width of a circuit element provided at the surface of the semiconductor substrate. Since the width of the trough-like pattern is set roughly equal to that of the circuit element, a secure trough-like pattern that will not be removed to an excessive degree during processes such as etch-back is formed at the surface of the semiconductor substrate, even if the alignment mark is formed concurrently with the formation of the circuit element. Consequently, a clear alignment mark that can be produced concurrently with the formation of a circuit element of the semiconductor circuit element and that presents no risk of collapsing or separating, is provided.
