  • Abstract
    In this paper some of the parameters relevant to the design of charge-coupled imaging devices are considered. Among these are charge storage capability, transfer efficiency, charge conservation, dark current, and the anticipated signal-to-noise ratio. Each is discussed, and the resultant effects on the performance of imaging devices are investigated.
