Impact Ionization in Charge Coupled Devices

Abstract

dc:description

A charge coupled device was designed and fabricated for the purpose of measuring impact ionization at the silicon-silicon dioxide interface. All past experiments have measured impact ionization either totally or partly in the bulk. Since the mobility of holes and electrons is lower at the interface than in the bulk, the impact ionization coefficient should be different due to the increased scattering.
