Semiconductor photodetector device

摘要

A semiconductor photodetector device includes: a first semiconductor layer of a first conductivity type; and a second semiconductor layer of a second conductivity type formed on the first semiconductor layer and having a light-receiving region. The first semiconductor layer includes a first region containing an impurity of the first conductivity type at a high concentration and a second region formed on the first region and containing an impurity of the first conductivity type at a concentration lower than that of the first region. The second semiconductor layer includes a third region containing an impurity of the second conductivity type at a concentration higher than that of the second region and a fourth region formed on the third region and containing an impurity of the second conductivity type at a concentration higher than that of the third region.
