Abstract
Disclosed is an electromagnetic wave information detection apparatus, including a photoelectric converter including first and second electrode layers; a charge generation layer that generates positive and negative charges by irradiation of an electromagnetic wave; and a charge transport layer; an electric potential imparting unit that imparts electric potentials to the first and second electrode layers; a detection unit; and a control unit controlling the electric potential imparting unit and the detection unit such that the electric potentials of the first and second electrode layers are equalized during a predetermined period of time between a process of imparting detection electric potentials to the first and second electrode layers to detect information carried by an electromagnetic wave of a previous irradiation and a process of imparting the detection electric potentials to the first and second electrode layers to detect information carried by an electromagnetic wave of a subsequent irradiation.
