Abstract

According to an aspect, a detection device includes: a substrate; a plurality of first electrodes arranged on the substrate; an insulating film provided between the first electrodes adjacent to each other; a plurality of photodiodes provided so as to correspond to the first electrodes; and a second electrode provided across the photodiodes. The photodiodes each comprise a first carrier transport layer, an active layer, and a second carrier transport layer stacked on the substrate. The first carrier transport layer, the active layer, and the second carrier transport layer are provided so as to cover the first electrodes and the insulating film between the adjacent first electrodes.

Claims (32)

1 . A detection device comprising:

a substrate;

a plurality of first electrodes arranged on the substrate;

an insulating film provided between the first electrodes adjacent to each other;

a plurality of photodiodes provided so as to correspond to the first electrodes; and

a second electrode provided across the photodiodes, wherein

the photodiodes each comprise a first carrier transport layer, an active layer, and a second carrier transport layer stacked on the substrate, and

the first carrier transport layer, the active layer, and the second carrier transport layer are provided so as to cover the first electrodes and the insulating film between the adjacent first electrodes.

2 . The detection device according to claim 1 , further comprising shield wiring that is provided between the adjacent first electrodes and is configured to be supplied with a fixed potential, wherein

the insulating film is provided so as to cover the shield wiring.

3 . The detection device according to claim 2 , wherein the shield wiring is provided in the same layer as a layer of the first electrodes.

4 . The detection device according to claim 2 , wherein the shield wiring is provided in a layer that is different from a layer of the first electrodes and that is located between the substrate and the layer of the first electrodes.

5 . The detection device according to claim 2 , wherein

the shield wiring is provided in a grid pattern, and

each of the first electrodes is disposed in an area defined by the shield wiring.

6 . The detection device according to claim 2 , wherein the fixed potential supplied to the shield wiring is higher than a potential of each of the first electrodes.

7 . The detection device according to claim 2 , wherein the fixed potential supplied to the shield wiring is equal to or higher than a potential of the second electrode.

8 . The detection device according to claim 1 , wherein the insulating film is an organic insulating film or an inorganic insulating film.

9 . The detection device according to claim 1 , wherein at least either one of each first electrode and the second electrode is made of a light-transmitting conductive material.

10 . The detection device according to claim 1 , wherein

the insulating film covers peripheries of the first electrodes and is provided with openings in areas overlapping the first electrodes, and

the first carrier transport layer is in contact with the first electrodes through the openings.

11 . The detection device according to claim 1 , wherein

the first electrodes, the first carrier transport layer, the active layer, the second carrier transport layer, and the second electrode are stacked in the order as listed, in areas overlapping the first electrodes,

the insulating film, the first carrier transport layer, the active layer, the second carrier transport layer, and the second electrode are stacked in the order as listed, in areas not overlapping the first electrodes, and

a height of the insulating film is greater than a height of the first electrodes.

12 . The detection device according to claim 1 , wherein

one of each first electrode and the second electrode is a cathode electrode, and

the other of each first electrode and the second electrode is an anode electrode.

13 . The detection device according to claim 1 , wherein

one of the first carrier transport layer and the second carrier transport layer is a hole transport layer, and

the other of the first carrier transport layer and the second carrier transport layer is an electron transport layer.
