摘要: A 640×480 pixel field emitter array (FEA) image sensor with a high-gain avalanche rushing amorphous photoconductor (HARP) target was fabricated and tested as step toward the development of ultrahigh-sensitivity compact sensors for high-definition television cameras. For this sensor, an active-matrix Spindt-type FEA integrated scanning circuits magnetic electron focusing system were designed, 15-μm-thick-HARP used. The experimental results revealed that prototype had enough resolution its pixel number high sensitivity due to electrons emitted from being focused onto HARP target.
