CPC2 Capacitance measurements Erik Devetak -University of Oxford - (28-03-06) Outline: Capacitance of a CCD Inter-gate and substrate Capacitance Study of the depleted region

The Capacitance Measurements Junction depletion Gate depletion n p p+ n+ V ref Gate n- p junction V Gate C-Inter Gate depends on gap between gates. Expect no dependence on VRef C-Substrate depends on depletion region. Expect: When we increase VRef we increase the Junction and the Gate depletion length When we increase VGate we increase the Gate depletion length and displace the Junction depletion Once the Junction and the Gate depletion regions meet the capacitance will be independent on VRef, but still dependent on VGate

CCD Model Below we can see a simple Circuit model of the CCD The arrows display the performed capacitance measurements A B A Cig Cig C sub C sub C sub C sub C C AB (ig measured) C AC (sub measured) From these values one can back calculate Cig and Csub

C vs. Vref Calculated Intra gate capacitance: 22 nF or 2.8 pF/cm of gate overlap or 2.8 nF/cm2 Calculated Sub. capacitance: 6 nF or 0.8 pF/cm of gate overlap or 0.8 nF/cm2 (f =60kHz ) Cig has a structure at 5-8 V, likely related to depletion of Buried Channel

1/C vs. Vref 1/C proportional to depletion region Capacitance saturates when the Buried Channel is depleted Depleted region increases with VGate Interesting features: -Non linear steps with respect to VGate -Breakdown at high voltage, possibly due to inversion under gates (f =80kHz )

CSub vs. VGate Note large variations of CSub at negative VGate The Capacitance derives from two different capacitances in parallel: Surface Channel ( MOS – C ) Buried Channel Shape at negative VGate is driven by the Surface Channel capacitance Model: Bc Sc Gate A Gate B (f =80kHz )

Depletion length calculation We can calculate the approximate depletion length by using the simple formula: At V Gate = 0 V For 1/C = 0.16 1/(nF) xd= 12.3 μm At V Gate = 10 V For 1/C = 0.20 (1/nF) xd= 15.4 μm Gain in additional depletion is small: ~25%

Conclusion The C-V behaviour of the CCD has been tested and in general it behaves as expected We measured an inter gate capacitance of 2.8 nF/cm of gate overlap length which is substantially higher than the one quoted from e2V (1.5 nF/cm ) and the one deriving from the simulation models ( 2.2 nF/cm ), but consistent with previous measurements We also measured the maximum depletion length of the substrate at different reference and Gate Voltages (15.4 μm at Vref >11, VGate > 10 )
