CONTROL OF 'BLOOMING' IN CHARGE-COUPLED, IMAGE SENSING ARRAYS

摘要

RCA 66,296AbstractExcess charge signal generated in response tooptical overload of a charge-coupled sensing region isremoved from that region by a bus imbedded in the substrateof the sensing array, The bus is separated from a line ofsensing regions by a potential barrier produced by anelectrode associated with the bus. This barrier is lowerthan that present, during the optical detection period,between adjacent sensing regions of a line.-1-
