An exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure illustrates a gesture sensing module disposed on a substrate. The gesture sensing module includes at least one light emitting unit, at least one light sensor, and a control circuit. The light emitting unit provides a light to illuminate a sensing area, wherein a central optical axis of the light forms an angle with a normal vector of the substrate, and the angle is not equal to 0. The light sensor senses a reflection light which a target in the sensing area reflects the light, and generate a sensing signal according to the reflection light. The control circuit coupled to the light sensor and the light emitting unit determines a traveling direction of the target according to the sensing signal.

A stacked photodiode structure comprises a first-conductivity-type substrate, a second-conductivity-type well region and a first-conductivity-type well region. The first-conductivity-type substrate has a first surface for light incidence and a grounding terminal. The second-conductivity-type well region is formed in the first-conductivity-type substrate and adjacent to the first surface. The first-conductivity-type well region is formed in the second-conductivity-type well region and adjacent to the first surface. A PN junction between the first-conductivity-type well region and the second-conductivity-type well region generates free electrons responsive to visible light spectrum. A PN junction between the second-conductivity-type well region and the first-conductivity-type substrate generates free holes and free electrons responsive to mainly IR light. The difference between a first photocurrent generated from an anode terminal of the first-conductivity-type well region and a second photocurrent generated from a cathode terminal of the second-conductivity-type well region represents the intensity of incident IR light.
