A CMOS imager which includes a substrate voltage pump to bias a doped area of a substrate to prevent leakage into the substrate from the transistors formed in the doped area. The invention also provides a CMOS imager where a photodetector sensor array is formed in a first p-well and readout logic is formed in a second p-well. The first p-well can be selectively doped to optimize cross-talk, collection efficiency and transistor leakage, thereby improving the quantum efficiency of the sensor array while the second p-well can be selectively doped and/or biased to improve the speed and drive of the readout circuitry.
