Abstract
A charge-coupled device image sensor includes a substrate, a buried channel region of a first conductivity type, formed in the substrate to a predetermined depth, for transferring signal charges, a first high concentration impurity region of a second conductivity type, formed in the substrate adjacent to the buried channel region, forming a channel stop, a first surface channel region of the second conductivity type, formed on the buried channel region, for transferring dark current charges, a second high concentration impurity region of the first conductivity type, formed on the first high concentration impurity region, for removing dark current charges from the surface channel region, and a second surface channel region of the second conductivity type formed to a predetermined depth in the substrate between the second high concentration impurity region and the first surface channel region.
