Abstract:The influence of pixel design on charge transfer, mainly on potential barrier and potential pocket, is investigated in this paper. By simplifying the interface region between the pinned photodiode (PPD) and the transfer gate (TG), an intuitive and simple method for analyzing the potential barrier and pocket is presented. Through TCAD simulations, the validity of the analysis method is verified, and the influence of some key dimension and process parameters in PPD pixel design on the potential barrier and pocke… Show more
