(a) SEM image of the large-, medium- and small-pixel arrays on a 4-inch wafer. (b) Optical microscope image of a medium-size pixel showing the central active electrode (cathode) and local concentric return electrode (anode). Diodes 1, 2 and 3 are connected in series; with the n+ and p+ regions of diode 1 indicated in the figure. Under illumination, photocurrent flows into the central active electrode, through the series-connected diodes, and flows out of the concentric return electrode.
