Charge-coupled device and charge-injection device imaging

A brief review is given of the advances in solid-state imaging during the last ten years. The issues of surface channel versus buried channel, aliasing versus prefiltering, frame transfer (FT) versus interline transfer (IT) versus charge-injection device (CID), and direct view versus EBIC imaging are discussed. Time-delay-and-integration (TDI) and infrared imaging are discussed. Finally applications are considered.
