  • Abstract
    We present a design study for the fabrication of a fully depleted CMOS image sensor integrated on high-resistivity epitaxial layer. Both models and simulations are used and show that the maximal depleted thickness and the punch-trough current are dependent on the photo-diode cathode length. From these considerations, achievable performances are estimated.
