Patent ID: 8835924

Claim:
A photo-detecting device comprising: a plurality of pixels, each pixel comprising at least one alternate stack of plural photodiodes and plural electrodes including an electrically conducting material, and wherein: each photodiode comprises at least one intrinsic amorphous semiconductor layer arranged in contact with at least one doped amorphous semiconductor layer distinct from the amorphous semiconductor layers in other photodiodes, each photodiode being arranged between at least two of the electrodes, and each pair of photodiodes comprising at least one of the electrodes arranged between the photodiodes; in each pixel, each electrode comprises at least one portion of electrically conducting material not superposed on other electrodes and electrically connected to at least one interconnection hole passing through the amorphous semiconductor layers and the portion not superposed on the other electrodes, the interconnection hole being filled with at least one electrically conducting material; in each pixel, portions of an electrically conducting material are superposed approximately on each of the portions of electrodes not superposed on other electrodes of the pixel and arranged above the amorphous semiconductor layers.
