Simulation of Photodetectors in Hybrid Image Sensors
نویسنده
چکیده
Hybrid image sensors combine advantages of the two leading imaging technologies (the fill factor of CCD, and the signal processing of CMOS) via vertical integration. This report derives a simple model for the photodetector of the hybrid image sensor, and the affiliated set of differential equations. This bounded-value problem is subsequently solved numerically in 1D, and a simple analytical model is derived from the numerical solution. Lastly, simulation results are presented, including an optimum photodetector length for best current signal level.
