A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11885744B2) discloses an integrated circuit designed for efficient photodetection. The circuit includes multiple photodetection regions with varying depths to generate different charge carriers in response to incident photons. These charge carriers are then stored in specific charge storage regions before being transferred to a readout region. The patent also details the use of transfer gates to control the movement of charge carriers between different regions within the circuit, allowing for precise control and manipulation of the generated charge carriers.
Furthermore, the integrated circuit described in the patent incorporates features to capture both lifetime and spectral information of incident photons. The first charge carriers indicate lifetime information, while the second charge carriers provide spectral information, including wavelength details. By utilizing multiple photodetection regions, charge storage regions, and transfer gates, the circuit enables the accurate capture and storage of different types of information related to incident photons. This innovative design allows for enhanced functionality and performance in various applications requiring precise photodetection capabilities.
