Table 3.

Modification of conditions used in the theoretical analysis for designing practical sensors.

Reasons of Introduction Terms in the Theoretical Analysis Practical Countermeasures
Elements Employed Conditions Measures to Mitigate Trade-Offs/Side Effects
To enhance the temporal resolution Horizontal motion Reduction (Microlens/light guide) + (DTI/p-well) Less/non-uniform sensitivity, Dark current
Thickness of the layer (W) = Penetration depth (δ) W ’ = W/δ = 3 Crosstalk vs. Temporal resolution
Electric field 25 kV/cm - Dark current
Incident light direction Perpendicular to the backside Adjustment for the distributed light direction -
Crystal orientation <111> <100> -
Impurity concentration 0 (intrinsic) 1014 cm−3 -
For formulation Arrival-time distribution Gaussian distribution - -
Definition of the resolution Ditto:|µ 2µ 1| = 2 σ - -
