Title
Pixel Structure Effects on Crosstalk in Backwall Illuminated CMOS Compatible Photodiode Arrays
Abstract
CMOS imaging arrays in back-illuminated modeprovide a means to realize photodiode arrays for highresolution imaging systems, provided crosstalk effects canbe reduced to the level of those observed in front-illuminatedarrays. In this study, we have simulated thecrosstalk in back-illuminated and front-illuminated arraysas a function of different structural configurations,including the presence of biased guard electrodes insingle junction photodiodes, or the development of doublejunction photodiodes. The results obtained show thatsignificant crosstalk suppression can be achieved in back-illuminatedarrays for these structures. The physicalmechanisms responsible for electrical crosstalk, and itssubsequent suppression, are explained using anabsorption volume proportion concept.
