Abstract

PURPOSE:To eliminate the variation in the wavelength characteristics of a photoelectric converter with respect to the variation in the drive current by varying a band gap in the P-N junction surface. CONSTITUTION:Zn is diffused from one side face of Ga1-xAlxAs substrate 32, and a part 34 is formed in P type. Electrodes 35, 36 are respectively formed on the P type region 34 and the N type region 32 to form a light emitting element. The Ga1-xAlxAs is mixed crystal of GaAs and AlAs, and the band gap varies in response to the mixed ratio (x) from 1.43eV to 2.15eV. The ratio (x) is varied in the P-N junction formed of the P type region 34 and N type region 32, and accordingly the band gap is varied.
