High resolution radiation sensor based on single polysilicon floating gate array
7 Jun 22
A method for radiation dosage measurement includes: (1) exposing a plurality of single-poly floating gate sensor cells to radiation; (2) measuring threshold voltage differences between logical pairs of the exposed sensor cells using differential read operations, wherein the sensor cells of each logical pair are separated by a distance large enough that radiation impinging on one of the sensor cells does not influence the other sensor cell; (3) determining whether each logical pair of exposed sensor cells is influenced by exposure to the radiation in response to the corresponding measured threshold voltage difference; and (4) determining a dosage of the radiation in response to the number of logical pairs of the exposed sensor cells determined to be influenced by exposure to the radiation.

24 Feb 22
A solid-state imaging device includes a first semiconductor substrate, photoelectric conversion portions arrayed on the first semiconductor substrate and configured to convert incident light to charges, a charge storage portion configured to hold charges transferred from a corresponding one of the photoelectric conversion portions via a transfer transistor, and an interconnect layer stacked on the first semiconductor substrate and including a plurality of metal interconnects.
Utility
METHOD OF FORMING A GaN SENSOR HAVING A CONTROLLED AND STABLE THRESHOLD VOLTAGE IN THE SENSING AREA
24 Feb 22
A method fabricating a GaN based sensor including: forming a gate dielectric layer over a GaN hetero-structure including a GaN layer formed over a substrate and a first barrier layer formed over the GaN layer; forming a first mask over the gate dielectric layer; etching the gate dielectric layer and the first barrier layer through the first mask, thereby forming source and drain contact openings; removing the first mask; forming a metal layer over the gate dielectric layer, wherein the metal layer extends into the source and drain contact openings; forming a second mask over the metal layer; etching the metal layer, the gate dielectric layer and the GaN heterostructure through the second mask, wherein a region of the GaN heterostructure is exposed; and thermally activating the metal layer in the source and drain contact openings.
Utility
Ultraviolet Radiation Sensor
27 Jan 22
A UV radiation sensor that includes an area that is filled with a dielectric material, the area comprises a first portion of a first thickness and a second trench portion with dielectric of a second thickness, wherein the first thickness is smaller than the second thickness; a floating gate that comprises a first floating gate portion that is positioned above the first area portion and a second floating gate portion that is positioned above the trench portion, wherein the second floating gate portion comprises multiple segments, wherein there are one or more gaps between two or more of the multiple segments; a charging element for charging the floating gate; and a readout element for reading the floating gate.
