Solid-State Imaging with Charge-Coupled Devices (Solid-State Science and Technology Library) [Hardcover]

A.J. Theuwissen (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: March 31, 1995 | ISBN-10: 0792334566 | ISBN-13: 978-0792334569 | Edition: 1

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.

5.0 out of 5 stars The only complete CCD text / resource book., October 27, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Solid-State Imaging with Charge-Coupled Devices (Solid-State Science and Technology Library) (Hardcover)

This book could have been better. But considering how many books on CCDs are actually available - this book is too good to be true. It is fairly in-depth and deals with a broad array of topics. Processing (eg. doping levels etc) perspective should have been better.
