Semiconductor light receiving element

摘要

A semiconductor light receiving element has a semiconductor portion. The semiconductor portion includes a substrate, a light detecting portion, and a filter portion. The substrate, the light detecting portion, and the filter portion are provided sequentially in a direction of a predetermined axis. The light detecting portion has a light absorbing layer including a III-V semiconductor layer, a window layer including a III-V semiconductor layer, and an anode semiconductor region. The light absorbing layer is an n or i conductivity type semiconductor layer. The light absorbing layer is provided between a III-V semiconductor layer and the window layer. The light detecting portion is provided on one face of the semiconductor substrate with the III-V semiconductor layer interposed therebetween. The filter portion includes InGaAsP semiconductor layers and III-V semiconductor layers.
