Description

【発明の詳細な説明】 〔産業上の利用分野〕 本発明は全モールドタイプのフォトダイオード。[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] The present invention is a photodiode of all mold types.

The present invention relates to a phototransistor, and particularly to a semiconductor light receiving device used as a light receiving portion of a transmission type photosensor in combination with an external light emitting device.

Conventionally, this type of light-receiving device mainly handles incident light from a direction perpendicular to the light-receiving surface of the built-in light-receiving element. It is a convex lens that shines onto the light-receiving surface of the element.

Therefore, in conventional light-receiving devices, the light-receiving current due to light incident from the side surface of the element consists of two components: a component that enters into the crystal from one side of the element, and a component that enters the light-receiving surface of the element due to diffuse reflection inside the resin. The light receiving current for incident light from the direction perpendicular to the light receiving surface of the element is significantly reduced due to the component due to the light receiving surface.

In particular, the present invention is effective against incident light from the side direction of the light-receiving element.
In order to achieve high sensitivity, the shape of the resin part on the light-receiving surface side of the element is made into an inclined surface that is thicker on the light incident side and thinner on the opposite side.
The light incident parallel to the element surface is totally reflected on the inclined surface and is incident on the element light receiving surface. In addition, by setting a convex lens of an appropriate diameter on the incident surface, it is possible to condense the light and further increase the sensitivity.Also, by appropriately setting the position of the lens, it is possible to identify the inside of the surface of the receiving element. It is also possible to concentrate the incident light at a position.

FIGS. 3 and 4 are a plan view and a sectional view of an embodiment having a convex lens on the light incident surface. FIGS. 5 and 6 are a plan view and a cross-sectional view of a light-receiving device that has high sensitivity to normal incident light from the direction of the element surface.

In FIG. 2, light (indicated by arrows) incident from the side surface of the element is totally reflected by the reflective surface 5. Generally, the refractive index of epoxy resin is about 1.5, and the critical angle for total reflection of light is θ=
sin'-L-=41.8°.

1.5 Therefore, the reflective surface 5 is set so that ΔABC is 48.2° or less. However, the smaller the angle, the longer the optical path inside the resin, and the greater the absorption of light by the resin, which is a cine effect that causes a decrease in sensitivity.

Moreover, the package size also increases. Therefore, MAB
C is suitably about 30 to 45 degrees. When using a convex lens as shown in Figures 3 and 4 to condense light to increase sensitivity, the light incident on both ends of the diameter of the lens is totally reflected by the reflective surface and at least enters the light-receiving surface of the element. The lens diameter and the position of the element are set so that the
