High-speed time delay and integration solid state scanner

An image scanner for converting a radiation image pattern into an electronic image, including a time delay and integration array and means for moving the radiation image pattern relative to the array along a first direction, the array including a semiconductor member having a plurality of contiguous photosensitive electrical charge holding regions, each of said regions extending along said first direction and having a radiation receptive surface, and a plurality of control electrodes, each extending substantially at right angles to said first direction and overlying adjacent portions of the radiation receptive surface of said regions, said control electrodes being capable of conducting both said radiation pattern and electrical current, control means for applying control voltages to selected ones of said control electrodes in synchronism with said relative movement, and a plurality of relatively opaque electrical conductors extending angularly across said regions and said control electrodes and interconnecting said control means with said control electrodes.
