Abstract

See full text

A photodetector including a substrate, a light absorption layer arranged over the substrate, the light absorption layer including a stack including a semiconductor layer that absorbs light of a wavelength having an electric field vector parallel to a normal direction of a substrate surface, a lower contact layer arranged on a first side of the light absorption layer, a lower electrode contacting with the lower contact layer, an upper contact layer arranged on a second side of the light absorption layer, and an upper electrode contacting with the upper contact layer. An uneven structure including polarization-selective shapes of projections or depressions on the second side of the upper contact layer is provided, the shapes of projections or depressions each having a size of a wavelength or less of incident light in the semiconductor layer and half the wavelength or greater and being periodically arranged in at least one direction.
