Optical sensor and electronic apparatus utilizing an angle limiting filter |
摘要 |
An optical sensor includes a light receiving element (for example a photodiode) and an angle limiting filter that limits the incidence angle of incidence light with respect to the light receiving area of the light receiving element. When a wavelength of the incidence light is denoted by λ, a height of the angle limiting filter is denoted by R, and a width of an opening of the angle limiting filter is denoted by d, “d2/λR≧2” is satisfied. |

1. An optical sensor comprising:
a light receiving element; and an angle limiting filter that limits an incidence angle of incidence light with respect to a light receiving area of the light receiving element, wherein, a wavelength of the incidence light is denoted by λ, a height of the angle limiting filter is denoted by R, and a width of an opening of the angle limiting filter is denoted by d, “d2/(λR)≧2” is satisfied, and wherein the wavelength of the incidence light λ is between 0.5 μm and 0.9 μm. |
