Claim Text:
1. An electromagnetic wave detecting element comprising: a substrate including a plurality of scan lines and a plurality of signal lines disposed to intersect one another, and TFT switching elements provided at respective intersection portions of the scan lines and the signal lines; a first flattening film formed to cover the TFT switching elements of the respective intersection portions on the substrate, and flattening a surface; sensor portions provided on the first flattening film to correspond respectively to the intersection portions so as to form a sensor array, and connected respectively to the TFT switching elements, and generating charges as a result of electromagnetic waves that are an object of detection being irradiated; and a second flattening film that flattens and covers: the sensor portions on the first flattening film, a region on the substrate at which the first flattening film is formed, and end portions of the first flattening film at a peripheral portion of end portions of the substrate, wherein the peripheral portion of end portions of the substrate is a region between the sensor portion and the outermost edge of the substrate.
