In fact, it is not even clear the device operated as a CCD at all - more like an addressable trapped-charge memory device (still interesting).<br /><br />These new(ish) materials, esp. when published by people in chemistry or materials science, are usually very poor in performance compared to silicon but the authors don't have enough experience in our field to understand how far away they are from a useful material.

"single-layer matrix" may be simply a thin layer of CIS semiconductor today widely employed in flexible solar batteries.<br />GMAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
