A photodetection apparatus includes an objective lens element (17) that collects light from a measurement object (16) and a photodetection element that detects the light collected by the objective lens element (17). The objective lens element (17) includes a center portion (28) that collects the light through refraction and a peripheral portion (29) located around the center portion (28) that collects the light through reflection. Thus, light at a large emission angle which may not be collected in a normal convex lens can also be collected, and thus collecting efficiency can be improved and the sensitivity of the photodetection element can be increased. |
