A simulation system has been developed to automatically analyze basic electrical characteristics of a charge-coupled device (CCD) image sensor from a process simulation result. This system shortened the simulation period to approximately 1/10 by getting rid of complicated repetitious procedures. A high-performance new cell technology has been developed successfully with improving impurity distribution in shorter development time by using this system. This technology has been realized as a CCD cell pixel with CCD charge quantity of 1.8 times, effective transfer efficiency of over 99%, no image lag for driving read-out pulse voltage in comparison with conventional technology. A 1/4-in 330 K square pixel progressive-scan CCD was fabricated with this technology. These results are described to demonstrate the effectiveness of the automatic simulation system
