Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent shortcircuiting of an Au wire and an electrode for light screening mask and to prevent deterioration of frequency characteristics due to capacity increase by forming an insulating film on a second electrode in a semiconductor photosensitive device which is provided with a second electrode insulated against a first electrode for leading out a current through an insulating film having an opening section on a semiconductor. CONSTITUTION:SiO2 is formed to prevent an Au wire 11 from coming into contact with an electrode 9 for light screening mask. When a reverse bias is applied, light injected from an opening section 7 is absorbed at an InGaAs photoabsorbing layer 2 to produce a carrier, and separates and drifts inside a depletion layer which extends through the reverse bias to become a light current. Light irradiated excepting the opening section 7 is shielded by the electrode 9 for light screening mask and does not enter a semiconductor. Shortcircuiting of the Au wire 11 and the electrode 9 for light screening mask is prevented by the SiO2 12 formed on the electrode 9. Deterioration of frequency characteristics due to an increase of capacity can be prevented in this way.
