Abstract
A substrate has a front surface and a back surface opposite from the front surface. An n-type layer, a multiplication layer, a p-type electric field control layer, a light absorption layer, and a window layer are layered in order on the front surface. A p-type region is provided in part of the window layer. An anode electrode is provided on the p-type region and connected to the p-type region. An anode pad and a cathode pad are provided on the back surface. First and second connecting holes penetrates the substrate. A third connecting hole penetrates from the window layer to the n-type layer. The cathode pad is electrically connected to the n-type layer via the first connecting hole. The anode pad is electrically connected to the anode electrode via the second and third connecting holes. A light-receiving region is provided on the back surface.
