摘要： A method of forming a charge-coupled device including the steps of forming well or substrate of a first conductivity type; a buried channel of a second conductivity type; a plurality of first gate electrodes; partially coating the first gate electrodes with a mask substantially aligned to an edge of the first gate electrodes; implanting ions of the first conductivity type of sufficient energy to penetrate the first gates and into the buried channel; and a plurality of second gate electrodes covering regions each over the buried channel between the first gate electrodes.

摘要： An image sensor includes a plurality of pixels; a substrate which is doped so that electrons released at different depths in the substrate are collected in separate regions of the substrate; and a color filter array comprising materials that selectively absorb specific bands of wavelengths over predetermined pixels so that wavelengths of light that pass through the color filter array are absorbed by the substrate which releases electrons at different depths of the substrate that are sensed and generate a separate signal for each region.

摘要： An image sensor includes at least first and second photo-sensitive regions; a color filter array having at least two different colors that selectively absorb specific bands of wavelengths, and the two colors respectively span portions of predetermined photo-sensitive regions; and wherein the two photo sensitive regions are doped so that electrons that are released at two different depths in the substrate are collected in two separate regions of the photo sensitive regions so that, when wavelengths of light pass through the color filter array, light is absorbed by the photo sensitive regions which photo sensitive regions consequently releases electrons at two different depths of the photo sensitive regions and are stored in first and second separate regions; at least two charge-coupled devices adjacent the first photo sensitive regions; and a first transfer gate associated with the first photo sensitive region that selectively passes charge at first and second levels which, when at the first level, causes the charge stored in the first region to be passed to one of its associated charge-coupled devices, and when the transfer gate is at the second level, charge stored in the second region is passed to one of the associated charge-coupled devices.
