Solid-State Imaging with Charge-Coupled Devices covers the complete imaging chain: from the CCD's fundamentals to the applications. The book is divided into four main parts: the first deals with the basics of the charge-coupled devices in general. The second explains the imaging concepts in close relation to the classical television application. Part three goes into detail on new developments in the solid-state imaging world (light sensitivity, noise, device architectures), and part four rounds off the discussion with a variety of applications and the imager technology. The book is a reference work intended for all who deal with one or more aspects of solid- state imaging: the educational, scientific and industrial world. Graduates, undergraduates, engineers and technicians interested in the physics of solid-state imagers will find the answers to their imaging questions. Since each chapter concludes with a short section `Worth Memorizing', reading this short summary allows readers to continue their reading without missing the main message from the previous section.

Not a design book, but an source of information on the features and specifications most often reported in data sheets on charge-coupled devices, which are used in high-definition television for program production, consumer camcorders, electronic still cameras, optical character readers including bar-code scanners and fax machines, and other applications. When the 1996 edition sold out, it was decided to update and correct rather than reprint. A major change is that the term CCD array has been changed in most of the text to solid state array to allow for flexibility in sensor type. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.

An Advanced Study Institute on solid-state imaging was held in Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium on September 3-12, 1975 under the auspices of the Scientific Affairs Division of NATO. The Institute was organized by a scientific organizing committee consisting of Professor Paul Jespers and Professor Fernand Van de Wiele of the Universite' Catholique de Louvain and Dr. Marvin H. White of the Westinghouse Electric Corporation. This book represents the con tributions of the lecturers at the Institute and the chapters pre sert, for the first time, a concise treatment of a very timely subject, namely, solid-state imaging. The organization of the book parallels the program at the Institute with an introduction r. omprised of historical development and applications. This is f0~lowed by the physics of photosensors which leads quite naturally into the various solid-state photosensor arrays. The subject of signal extraction, which is often an overlooked area, follows and the last part of the book is devoted to the various system's con siderations. The subject matter of this book is suitable for a Wide range of interests from the advanced·student, through the practicing physcist and engineer, to the research worker. Although a novice may find some difficulty with the mathematical development, he can acquire a perspective into the field of solid-state imaging with this book. Likewise, portions of this book may be used as a text book since ~he chapters are instructional and self-contained.

This is the first book to describe an emerging but already growing technology of thermal imaging based on uncooled infrared imaging arrays and systems, which are the most exciting new developments in infrared technology today. This technology is of great importance to developers and users of thermal images for military and commercial applications. The chapters, prepared by world leaders in the technology, describe not only the mainstream efforts, but also exciting new approaches and fundamental limits applicable to all. Unified approach to technology development based on fundamental limits Individual chapters written by world leaders in each technology Novel potential approaches, allowing for the reduction of costs, described in detail Descriptive and analytical Provides details of the mainstream approaches--resistive bolometric, pyroelectric/field enhanced pyroelectric, thermoelectric Provides insight into a unified approach to development of all types of thermal imaging arrays Features state-of-the-art and selected new developments
