ABSTRACT:
An active gate includes a substrate of a first conductivity type, a channel of a second conductivity type formed in the substrate, a first gate region of the first conductivity type formed in a corresponding first portion of the channel, and a first contact connected to the first gate region. The first gate region covers a first area, and the first contact covers a fraction of the first area. A pixel or register element includes an active gate, a second gate region of the first conductivity type formed in a corresponding second portion of the channel, and a second contact connected to the second gate region. The second gate region covers a second area and is spaced by a first gap from the first gate region. The second contact covers a fraction of the second area. The pixel or register element further includes a first gate electrode insulatively spaced from and disposed over the first gap.
