Abstract:
An image sensor includes a control circuit and pixels. Each pixel includes: a photosensitive area, a substantially rectangular storage area adjacent to the photosensitive area, and a read area. First and second insulated vertical electrodes electrically connected to each other are positioned opposite each other and delimit the storage area. The first electrode extends between the storage area and the photosensitive area. The second electrode includes a bent extension opposite a first end of the first electrode, with the storage area emerging onto the photosensitive area on the side of the first end. The control circuit operates to apply a first voltage to the first and second electrodes to perform a charge transfer, and a second voltage to block charge transfer.

Claim (Index 23):
The image sensor of  claim 18 , wherein the second bias voltage has a first voltage level configured to permit a charge transfer from the photosensitive area to the charge storage area, and has a second voltage level which blocks charge transfer from the photosensitive area to the charge storage area.
