  • CMOS sensor with electrodes across photodetectors at approximately equal potential
    Patent number: 7525168
    Abstract: A MOS or CMOS based active pixel sensor designed for operation with zero or close to zero potential across the pixel photodiodes to minimize or eliminate dark current. In preferred embodiments the pixel photodiodes are produced with a continuous pin or nip photodiode layer laid down over pixel electrodes of the sensor. In this preferred embodiment, the voltage potential across the pixel photodiode structures is maintained constant and close to zero, preferably less than 1.0 volts. This preferred embodiment enables the photodiode to be operated at a constant bias condition during the charge detection cycle. Setting this constant bias condition close to zero (near “short circuit” condition) assures that dark current is substantially zero.
