Michael F. Thompsett is awarded 2012 IEEE Edison Medal "for pioneering contributions to imaging devices, including CCD imagers, cameras, and thermal imagers." In September 2011 he also has been awarded National Medal of Technology and Innovation. A Youtube video talks about Thompsett's career:
With Boyle and Smith getting Nobel prize, Tompsett getting two medals in 2011-12, and Eugene Gordon awarded IEEE Edison Medal in 1984, it looks like most of the Bell Labs' CCD team got awarded.
