摘要： A method for operating an image sensor including a medium having at least one photosensitive material capable of generating charges by photoelectric effect when the sensor is exposed to an incident light, and a collection electrodes in contact with the medium associated with pixel circuits. The method includes at least one electrical field that is created and includes at least one lateral component to collect the charges on at least one of the collection electrodes, allowing them to be read by the associated pixel circuit, wherein said electrical field is generated by creating at least one potential difference between said collection electrode and at least one other zone of the sensor, brought to a different potential, this other zone being situated between at least two collection electrodes.
