Abstract
We have designed and fabricated an active pixel sensor(APS) using an optimized n-well/gate-tied p-channel metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor(PMOSFET)-type photodetector with a built-in transfer gate. This photodetector has a floating gate connected to n-well and a built-in transfer gate. The photodetector has been optimized by changing the length of the transfer gate. The APS has been fabricated using a 0.35 <TEX>${\mu}m$</TEX> standard complementary metal oxide semiconductor(CMOS) process. It was confirmed that the proposed APS has a wider dynamic range than the APS using the previously proposed photodetector and a higher sensitivity than the conventional APS using a p-n junction photodiode.
