Abstract

PURPOSE:To decrease the weight by making the bottom region opposite to the light incident surface thin with beam shaped parts being remained with regard to the active region of a semiconductor substrate. CONSTITUTION:With regard to a PN junction 3 of a GaAs substrate 1, thin parts 11 and thick parts 12 are provided in the region opposite to the light incident surface 7. If the area ratio between the parts 11 and 12 is adequately selected, the mechanical strength can be freely controlled, and the weight can be decreased without loosing the easiness in handling and mechanical strength.
