UV-responsive CCD image sensors with enhanced inorganic phosphor coatings.

UV-responsive CCD image sensors with enhanced inorganic phosphor coatings.

Typical polysilicon gate charge-coupled device (CCD) image sensors are unresponsive to ultraviolet (UV) light because of the high absorption of the radiation in polysilicon gate material, which leads to a short penetration depth (<2 nm), and absorption of the radiation in the gate material rather...
