摘要： Large area, fast frame rate, charge coupled devices (CCDs) are provided. Interline transfer CCDs can have interleaved pinned photodiodes and vertical shift registers. The interline transfer CCDs are ideal for producing high frame rate video images from a continuous light source. The photodiodes transfer charge indicative of the previous video frame to an adjacent vertical shift register with little or no lag, while light from the current video frame is integrating in the photodiodes. The charge signals only have to travel a short distance from a photodiode to an adjacent vertical shift register. The charge signals indicative of each video frame are then shifted out of the vertical shift registers. Each vertical shift register has a doping gradient that increases the charge transfer rate. All of these factors provide a fast and efficient video frame rate, even in a large area CCD.

摘要翻译： 提供大面积，快速帧速率，电荷耦合器件（CCD）。 行间传输CCD可以具有交错的钉扎光电二极管和垂直移位寄存器。 线间传输CCD是从连续光源产生高帧率视频图像的理想选择。 光电二极管将指示先前视频帧的电荷传输到具有很小或没有滞后的相邻垂直移位寄存器，而来自当前视频帧的光则集成在光电二极管中。 充电信号仅需要从光电二极管行进到相邻的垂直移位寄存器。 指示每个视频帧的电荷信号然后被移出垂直移位寄存器。 每个垂直移位寄存器具有增加电荷转移速率的掺杂梯度。 所有这些因素即使在大面积CCD中也能提供快速高效的视频帧率。
