  • Abstract
    Results are presented on ionization and displacement damage-induced dark current increases in CCDs. Effects of reverse annealing and operation in surface inversion (dither clocking and MPP mode) are discussed. Bulk damage effects such as field enhancement and random telegraph noise are also considered. The emphasis is on effects in the near-Earth space environment
