SOLID-STATE IMAGING DEVICE AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18755000 titled 'SOLID-STATE IMAGING DEVICE AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS
The abstract of the patent application describes a technology where groove portions are present between adjacent photoelectric conversion portions. The sidewall surfaces and bottom surfaces of the groove portions are covered with a first fixed charge film, while the open ends of the groove portions are closed by a second fixed charge film with voids inside.
- Groove portions are provided between adjacent photoelectric conversion portions.
- Sidewall surfaces and bottom surfaces of the groove portions are covered with a first fixed charge film.
- Open ends of the groove portions are closed by a second fixed charge film with voids inside.
Potential Applications: This technology could be applied in the development of advanced photoelectric conversion devices, such as sensors or imaging systems.
Problems Solved: This technology helps in improving the efficiency and performance of photoelectric conversion devices by providing a protective and charge-enhancing structure within the device.
Benefits: Enhanced charge retention, improved device performance, and increased durability are some of the key benefits of this technology.
Commercial Applications: This technology could find applications in industries such as electronics, imaging, and sensor technology, where high-performance photoelectric conversion devices are required.
Questions about the Technology: 1. How does the use of fixed charge films improve the performance of photoelectric conversion devices? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this technology in commercial devices?
