Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2589694
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
PURPOSE:To realize a device excellent in S/N ratio by a method wherein a second diffusion layer of a second opposite conductivity type is provided so as to be brought into contact with a first impurity diffusion layer and the variation of a depletion layer around the junction of these diffusion layers is utilized. CONSTITUTION:A first impurity layer 3 transferring signal charges and a second impurity layer 4 which has a conductivity type opposite to that of the impurity layer 3 and is in contact with it are provided to output by utilizing the variation of a depletion layer of a second impurity layer 4. Therefore, the potential of a floating diffusion layer can be detected without using a MOS.FET of a superficial type and moreover instability of the potential which occurs after the rest of the floating diffusion layer can be prevented. By these processes, noises can be remarkably reduced.
