CHARGE-COUPLED DEVICES (CCD)

A charge-coupled device (CCD) is a kind of device that is widely used for such diverse applications as computer memories and image recording. The charge-coupled device employs an array of metal-oxide contacts, as illustrated in Fig. 14.25. Assuming a p-type semiconductor, each of them has a positive imposed potential to create an inversion layer just inside the semiconductor.
