Abstract
A charge injection device (CID) structure comprising two conductors for forming two adjacent potential wells in a semiconductor substrate and means such as an ion implanted region for maintaining a potential barrier between these wells. The CID is operated in such a way as to permit more of the charge accumulated during the integration time in response to a given voltage applied to the conductors to be useful in producing a readout signal than in previous CID's. Also, the structure and mode of operation are such as to lessen undesired capacitive coupling effects.
