ABSTRACT:
A Schottky barrier CCD infra-red (IR) detector array having Schottky junction IR sensitive gates as the transfer gates of the CCD array. These Schottky gates perform both IR detection and CCD shift register function within the array, thereby improving the fill factor and/or pixel size of the device.
