[EN] The device and method for spatially resolved photodetection and demodulation of temporally modulated electromagnetic waves make possible to measure phase, amplitude and offset of a temporally modulated, spatially coded radiation field. A micro-optical element (41) spatially averages a portion (30) of the scene and equally distributes the averaged intensity on two photo sites (51.1, 51.2) close to each other. Adjacent to each of these photo sites (51.1) are two storage areas (54.1, 54.2) into which charge from the photo site can be moved quickly (with a speed of several MHz to several tens or even hundreds of MHz) and accumulated essentially free of noise. This is possible by employing the charge-coupled device (CCD) principle. The device can be operated in two modes for two types of modulated radiation fields: (1) sinusoidal radiation signals are demodulated by operating the photo sites (51.1, 51.2) and their storage areas (54.1-54.4) in quadrature, i.e., by applying the clocking signals to the second photo site (51.2) and its storage areas (54.3, 54.4) with a delay of a quarter of the repetition period compared to the first photo site (51.1) and its storage areas (54.1, 54.2); (2) pulsed radiation signals are measured by switching the first photo site's storage part from the first (54.1) to the second area (54.2) during the arrival of the radiation pulse, whereby the second photo site (51.2) and its storage areas (54.3, 54.4) are used for offset measurements without emitted and received radiation. The device combines a high optical fill factor, insensitivity to offset errors, high sensitivity even with little light, simultaneous data acquisition, small pixel size and maximum efficiency in use of available signal photons for sinusoidal as well as pulsed radiation signals. Preferential use is in a time-of-flight (TOF) range imaging system without moving parts, offering 2D or 3D range data. <IMAGE> |
