    摘要: A device for measuring optical power simultaneously for two or more spectral regions. Two or more photodetectors, such as photodiodes, measure the pulse energy and/or power emitted by a laser having output in two or more spectral regions. The laser radiation is transmitted through a diffuser or beamsplitter, then filtered and/or attenuated so that light from each respective spectral region is incident on the active region of a photodiode. The device also includes electronic circuitry with one or more operational amplifiers for each photodiode, integrators and analog-to-digital converters. In a preferred embodiment, the device also includes a microprocessor to provide noise reduction and calibration functions for each photodiode output, and to drive a display or readout.

    摘要: Mechanical stress control may be achieved using materials having selected elastic moduli. These materials may be selectively formed by implantation, may be provided as a plurality of buried layers interposed between the substrate and the active area, and may be formed by replacing selected portions of one or more buried layers. Any one or more of these methods may be used in combination. Mechanical stress control may be useful in the channel region of a semiconductor device to maximize its performance. In addition, these same techniques and structures may be used for other purposes besides mechanical stress control.

    摘要: A semiconductor device has a semiconductor base, an anode electrode, and a cathode electrode. The semiconductor base includes a P type semiconductor substrate, an insulating film, an N− type semiconductor region formed on the insulating film, an N+ type semiconductor region, and a P+ type semiconductor region facing the N+ type semiconductor region via the N− type semiconductor region. The semiconductor device further has an N type diffusion layer which is formed, in the N− type semiconductor region at the interface between the insulating film and the N− type semiconductor region, so as to have a concentration gradient such that the N type impurity concentration increases from the side of the anode electrode to the side of the cathode electrode.

    摘要: An imaging system, capable of reducing blooming in a solid-state imaging device and improving image sensitivity, comprises an imaging section which has at least three transfer electrodes and is continuously arranged with pixels for producing information charges in response to the light from the outside, wherein the information charges are stored and transferred using potential wells formed by potentials applied to the transfer electrodes and, during image capture, one of the transfer electrodes is maintained in an ON state and at least another one of the transfer electrodes is alternately switched between an ON state and an OFF state. It is more preferable to average the amount of generated dark current under the transfer electrodes by switching the transfer electrodes between an ON state and an OFF state for image capture. This provides restraint of a difference in the amount of generated dark current between pixels, thus reducing image graininess.
