Abstract
A photodetection module includes a photodetector and a fixing member. The photodetector includes a semiconductor substrate, a mesa portion, a first contact layer, a second contact layer, and a first electrode formed in a planar shape on a major surface of the semiconductor substrate, and electrically connected to one of the first contact layer and the second contact layer. The fixing member includes an insulating substrate, and a first wiring formed in a planar shape on a major surface of the insulating substrate. A recessed portion is formed in the major surface of the insulating substrate, and at least a part of the mesa portion is disposed inside the recessed portion. The first electrode is electrically connected to the first wiring in a state where the first electrode is in surface contact with the first wiring.
