  • Abstract
    Sputtered indium tin oxide (ITO) film is used as the transparent Schottky gate material for GaAs CCD´s. In addition the gigahertz clocking-rate capability of GaAs CCD´s makes them attractive for high-speed optical signal processing applications. The operation of the GaAs CCD´s with fixed-aperture mask over the transparent gates is reported here. Such structures are basic components of a GaAs CCD-based electrooptic processor (EOP).
