Photo Detector and Photo Detection Apparatus Provided with Photo Detector

Abstract

It is an object to provide a photo detector that can be arranged in a matrix pattern (in a three-dimensional pattern) and a photo detection apparatus in which the photo detectors are arranged in a matrix pattern (in a three-dimensional pattern). In a photo detector for generating an electrical signal based on the intensity of a light received by a photo detection element, the photo detector comprises a flexible wiring substrate for mounting the photo detection element and the photo detection element electrically connected to the flexible wiring substrate for mounting the photo detection element.
