Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a photoelectric conversion element having a small dark current by providing a compound film of II-IV group having a relatively wide band gap, a compound film of II-IV group having a narrower band gap than the above film and a paired electrode on a clear conductive film. CONSTITUTION:A clear conductive film 2 such as SnO2 or In2O3 or the like is formed on a substrate 1 made of photopermeability substance and compound film 3 or II-IV group having a relatively wide band gap (for example, a CdS film, a ZnS film, a ZnSe film) is stacked on the film 2. Next, a compound film 4 of II-IV group having a relatively narrow band gap (for example, a CdTe film, a CdSe film) is stacked on the film 3. Furthermore, a paired electrode 6 made of gold or the like is formed on the film 4. Then, the paired electrode 6 may be provided by stacking an amorphous chalcogenite film 5 (for example, an As2Se3 film) on the film 4. In this way, a small dark current, a quick photoresponse speed and long sized product will be obtd. under a reverse-bias condition.
