Research progress of digital low-light-level devices

摘要: 数字微光器件作为新一代微光夜视装备的核心器件，相比于传统真空微光器件因具有数字化输出的优势而备受各国重视。本文综述了低照度CCD（charge-coupled devices）/CMOS（complementary metal oxide semiconductor）、科学级CMOS、像增强型CCD/CMOS、电子倍增CCD及电子轰击APS（active pixel sensor）/CCD等数字微光器件的研究现状，分析了数字微光器件的应用情况。最后，提出了微光技术和数字微光器件的发展趋势。

Abstract: Digital low-light-level (LLL) devices, as the core devices of the new generation of LLL night vision equipment, have been paid more attention by mang countries because of their advantages of digital output compared with traditional vacuum LLL devices. The research statuses of low illumination charge-coupled devices (CCD)/complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS), scientific CMOS, image intensified CCD/CMOS, electron multiplying CCD, and electron bombarded active pixel sensor (APS)/CCD digital LLL devices were reviewed, and the application of digital LLL devices was analyzed. Finally, the development trends of LLL technology and digital LLL devices were proposed.
