Abstract

A photoelectric conversion element includes a substrate and an optical element. The substrate has a first surface on which reflected light reflected from an object is incident, and includes a first semiconductor region and a second semiconductor region, the second semiconductor region being formed in a direction perpendicular to the first surface and extended from the first surface toward an inside of the substrate. The optical element is positioned on a first surface side of the substrate and collects the reflected light to the second semiconductor region. The first semiconductor region includes a first conductive type semiconductor, the second semiconductor region includes a second conductive type semiconductor. The substrate and the optical element are structured such that a relational expression 0.95*exp(−α(λ)*z)≤B(z)/A1≤1.05*exp(−α(λ)*z) is established at a distance z=z0 when A1≥A2 is satisfied and a distance z0=In(2)/α(λ) is established.
