Experimental Study of Self-Scanning Photodiode Array.

Abstract

An experimental study of a new series of Solid State image sensor arrays was conducted, operating in a photon flux integration mode. The operation of a P-N junction photodiode is analyzed, and boundary conditions to operate the device are presented. The origin of the switching noise as the predominant noise source is verified. Some applications are developed. (Author)
