Optimization of Pinned Photodiode Pixels for High-Speed Time of Flight Applications

We discuss optimizations of pinned photodiode (PPD) pixels for indirect time of flight sensors. We focus on the transfer-gate and dumping gate regions optimization, on the PPD dimension and shape to assure fast lateral charge transfer and on the epitaxial layer thickness for a good tradeoff between...
