Title: Elad Ilan: Radiation Sensing and Inspection-System Innovations.

Introduction

Elad Ilan is an inventor associated with Rehovot, Israel. His work includes inventions in radiation sensing and inspection-system signal processing. He is credited with 2 patents and has been associated with Applied Materials Israel Limited, also known as Applied Materials Israel Ltd.

Latest Patents

Ilan’s listed patents address radiation detection and compensation for pixel-based sensing systems.

“Method for Sensing Radiation” describes a radiation-sensing device with a readout circuit containing first and second readout capacitors and a pixel that converts incident radiation into charge. The pixel includes a floating-diffusion branch and a capacitor branch, each with its own switching, reset, and output components. The capacitor’s capacitance exceeds that of the floating-diffusion region, and an input transfer gate couples the sensing element to one or both branches.

“Sensing Circuit Compensation” describes an inspection system with multiple pixel circuits, a readout circuit, and a processing circuit. The pixel circuits generate detection signals, which the readout circuit reads and the processing circuit processes using compensation functions. These functions are determined from pixel-circuit gain functions that include values associated with a border region between two parts of the pixel circuit’s dynamic range.
