Transfer Gate Effects on the Dark Current in Pinned Photodiode Image Sensors
X-RAY, OPTICAL, AND INFRARED DETECTORS FOR ASTRONOMY XI(2024)
Abstract
In this work, we investigate a mechanism of dark current generation under the transfer gate (TRA) in pinned photodiode (PPD) image sensors for science and space applications. It was established that the dark current could change by an order of magnitude depending on the biasing conditions of the TRA and the sense node during integration. This was observed in three sensors with different pixel sizes, made by two different foundries. The results from the characterization work to investigate the source of the dark current are presented. It was discovered that the effect strongly depends on the interplay between the timing and the biasing of the transfer gate and the sense node during reset. Two methods for the reduction of this dark current are proposed and evaluated. The results could help to find the optimal operating conditions of PPD image sensors used in applications where the dark current performance is paramount.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
