Charge-coupled devices (CCDs) continue to reign supreme in the realm of imaging out to 1 mu m, with the steady improvement of performance and the introduction of innovative features. This review is a survey of recent developments in the technology and the current limits on performance. Device packaging for large, tiled focal-plane arrays is also described. Comparisons between CCDs and the emerging CMOS imagers are highlighted in terms of process technology and performance.
