ABSTRACT:
A radiation-sensitive semiconductor device, e.g., a line imager, wherein a plurality of closely spaced photodiodes (10) are electrically insulated from each other by depletion regions. The device is provided with storage means (18, 19) for collecting into packets the minority charges generated in each diode during a certain integration time and with transfer means (12, 13) for transferring the distinct charge carrier packets to read out means (15), whereby improved performance with respect to blooming between adjacent diodes is obtained.
