P-channel CCDs with pre-rad imaging characteristics comparable to the best N-channel CCDs have been fabricated and tested. These devices have been subjected to proton damage and display the superior hardness predicted for them.Index Terms-Charge transfer efficiency, displacement damage hardened imagers, P-channel CCDs.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
