Abstract
A photodetection device includes a photodetection element and a package. The photodetection element includes a semiconductor substrate and a light absorption film. The light absorption film is provided on a region of at least a part of a region around a photodetection region on a principal surface of the semiconductor substrate. The light absorption film has a multi-layer structure including a light absorption layer, a resonance layer, and a reflection layer. At a wavelength of detection target light, a light transmittance inside the resonance layer is larger than a light transmittance inside the light absorption layer, and a light reflectance on a surface of the reflection layer is larger than a light reflectance on a surface of the resonance layer.
