Abstract

We describe the performance of an amorphous silicon imaging system designed for high speed (>10 frames/sec) scanning of a document. The system comprises a new page-sized sensor array with 1536×1920 pixels, an illumination source, and the readout electronics. With appropriate color filters, one can achieve color imaging of a document without the registration problems associated with linear scanners. We describe the color imaging properties and discuss how the color response, sensitivity and uniformity depend on the properties of the amorphous silicon sensors.
