Surface Passivation by Quantum Exclusion: On the Quantum Efficiency and Stability of Delta-Doped CCDs and CMOS Image Sensors in Space

Radiation-induced damage and instabilities in back-illuminated silicon detectors have proved to be challenging in multiple NASA and commercial applications. In this paper, we develop a model of detector quantum efficiency (QE) as a function of Si–SiO<sub>2</sub> interface and oxide trap...
