Because there is no direct illumination of the vertical transport register where the charge is shifted, it would seem that there should be no striping. Unfortunately, the close proximity of the photoelements to the transport registers allows some light to sneak under the opaque aluminum layer. The amount is generally small, but the shifting proceeds slowly so there is ample time for the stray light to produce a signal. In a typical IT sensor, the vertical shifting takes exactly one frame to be completed. This means that the integration time for the stray light is essentially equal to the integration time for the photodiodes acquiring the desired image. Thus, even if the leakage is only 1%, the signal produced in the transport registers by an area just at saturation will be larger than one LSB in an eight-bit system. Oversaturated points can produce much larger stray signals. Confusing matters is the problem that the stray light is acquired from the frame that will be produced after the frame currently in the transport registers. Thus, fast-moving bright objects can cause vertical striping away from the positions where they appear in the real image. This problem is exacerbated by lenses with their last element very close to the sensor because the proportion of light rays arriving at the sensor at low angles – exactly the rays that get under the aluminum - is increased. <br />Dave Gilblomhttp://www.alt-vision.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19092890.post-58279454131118112512014-01-22T22:40:51.042+02:002014-01-22T22:40:51.042+02:00Why previous and current frames?

The leakage photo carriers are confined within the channel stops and travel vertically above and below directions and appear as white columns.
