Hello,
les capteurs matriciels photoniques sont des capteurs CMOS de telle sorte que même si un pixel est violemment saturé de photons, wela a peu d'incidence sur les pixels voisins.
Couldn't find "violently saturated" :-)
Please help
Thank you

: don't think there's any question of abruptness here, J (either spatial or temporal) — it is simply the degree of overload.

severely saturated
I think it needs to be this strong to convey the idea behind 'violemment' — this is a really excessive amount of light.
Cf. other electrical contexts, where we talk about 'severe overload', for example.

The reason the degree of saturation is important is that this is a well-known problem with 'traditional' (!) CCD devices — a pixel can be saturated, and there is no problem, but when it is really massively saturated (with light, of course), there tends to be a 'spill-over' phenomenon that affects the adjacent pixels.

writeaway
: since it's not about fats or foods, this is probably techy correct. I've never seen 'violemment saturé' used in French for foods

Thanks, W/A! That's right, 'saturation' is used a lot in electronics etc;, where something is so overloaded (here, with too-bright light) that it can't take any more.

: Although you could argue that something is either saturated or it isn't, the specific issue here is that the intensity is so great that there is leakage affecting neighbouring cells. "Massively" maybe?

Thanks, Chris! Yes, that's the exact point; and 'massively' would be a good solution
