The samples have been prepared via quenching technique where bulk ZnO powder is calcined at very high temperature of 1200°C and then quenched into ice cold polyvinylpyrrolidone solution. Thee acteiut the samples specimen have been characterized by using UV/VIS spectroscopy, X-ray diffracttion study and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). These studies indicate the sizes of quantum dots to be within 10 nm. The prepared quantum dot samples have been examined for ethanol vapour sensing by exploring the variation of their resistance with time at different operating temperatures. It has been revealed that ZnO quantum dots can sense ethanol at low operating (230°C) temperature with less response time.展开更多

The samples are manufactured with the standards of 0.35 μm CMOS technology. Two samples have been irradiated un-biased by 23 MeV protons with fluences of 1.43 × 10^11 protons/cm^2 and 2.14 × 10^11 protons/cm-2,respectively, while another sample has been exposed un-biased to 65 krad(Si) ^60Co γ-ray. The influences of radiation on the dark current, fixed-pattern noise under illumination, quantum efficiency, and conversion gain of the samples are investigated. The dark current, which increases drastically, is obtained by the theory based on thermal generation and the trap induced upon the irradiation. Both γ-ray and proton irradiation increase the non-uniformity of the signal, but the nonuniformity induced by protons is even worse. The degradation mechanisms of CMOS APS image sensors are analyzed,especially for the interaction induced by proton displacement damage and total ion dose(TID) damage.展开更多

The sample is irradiated with a dose rate of 50 rad(SiO2)/s and a total dose of 100 krad(SiO2), and the photodiode is kept unbiased. The degradation of dark current, full well capacity,and quantum efficiency induced by the total ionizing dose damage effect are investigated. It is found that the dark current increases mainly from the shallow trench isolation(STI) surrounding the pinned photodiode. Further results suggests that the decreasing of full well capacity due to the increase in the density, is induced by the total ionizing dose(TID) effect, of the trap interface, which also leads to the degradation of quantum efficiency at shorter wavelengths.展开更多

The proposed model takes account of the non-uniform doping distribution in the N-type region due to the impurity compensation formed by the actual fabricating process. The characteristics of two boundary PN junctions located in the N-type region for the particular spectral response of a pinned photodiode, are quantitatively analyzed. By solving the minority carrier steady-state diffusion equations and the barrier region photocurrent density equations successively, the analytical relationship between the quantum efficiency and the corresponding parameters such as incident wavelength, N-type width, peak doping concentration, and impurity density gradient of the N-type region is established. The validity of the model is verified by the measurement results with a test chip of 160×160 pixels array,which provides the accurate process with a theoretical guidance for quantum efficiency design in pinned photodiode pixels.展开更多
