Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2013079826A1] The invention relates to a photodetector array (1), which is organized along a first organizational axis on a semiconductor substrate (6) of a first conductivity type. Each photodetector (1) is at least partially created in the substrate (6) forming a first photodetector electrode. A peripheral polarization ring is formed around the photodetector array (1). The polarization ring (2) is connected to a polarization voltage generator (3) and to the substrate (6). A read circuit is connected to a photodetector by means of the second terminal of the photodetector. A first switch connects the photodetector (1) to a generator (9) of additional voltage (VW). A second switch connects the photodetector (1) to the associated read circuit. The first and second switches (7, 8) are in opposite states.
