埋込込みPhotodiodeと Pinned Photodiodeの相違点
**********************
●匿名の人からの投稿ですが、埋込みPhotodiodeと Pinned Photodiodeの相違点を的確に説明しています。
そして NECの寺西さんは 埋込みPhotodiodeの受光素子を世界ではじめて ILT CCD に採用しましたが
その IEDM1982の論文には 実際には 残像が存在します。その論文で報告した受光素子は従って正確には
Pinned Photodiodeでなかった事を自らが論文で中での実測dataで明示した論文であると解釈されます。
「もとNECの寺西さんを間違ってPinned Photodiodeの発明者として過大評価した」と明記しています。
