... The first attempt to produce a front-illuminated CCD with a thin electrode structure was the Virtual phase technology [Hynecek]. In this case, two of the electrode phases were removed, and the potential well in that area defined by a surface implant. Charge transfer was effected by pulsing the voltages on the remaining electrode alternately above and below the potential necessary to form the same surface potential as in the implanted phase. ...
