Scientific paper
In this paper we describe the electrooptical characterization of three types of CCDs. The sensitive area of these CCDs is treated in order to enhance the UV response; in particular one is 'coronene' coated, thinned, back-illuminated, another is 'lumigen' coated, front-illuminated, and the last is 'ion-implanted' thinned, and back-illuminated. A technical description of the CCDs and the adopted coating process is given. The CCD characteristics such as the read-out noise, the pixel nonuniformity, the dark current and the quantum efficiency in the 2000 - 10500 A range, are compared. A cosmic-rays analysis for these CCDs is also given.
