摘要
We have designed, fabricated, and tested shallow-buried-channel charge-coupled devices (CCD's) with built-in drift fields. The delay lines are operated with 5-V two-phase clocks, and a potential gradient is permanently built into the storage gates by a step implant in order to improve the charge transfer efficiency (CTE) at high clocking rates. The CCD's with the built-in drift fields were tested up to the 325-MHz limit of the existing clock drivers with no degradation in the CTE (> 0.99996), while the equivalent CCD's with uniformly doped storage wells degrade rapidly above 240 MHz. These results are consistent with two-dimensional computer simulations.
