Patent ID: 8866093

Claim:
A method of manufacturing a detection device including a plurality of pixels arrayed on a substrate, the pixels each including a switch element disposed on the substrate and a conversion element including an impurity semiconductor layer and a semiconductor layer, wherein the impurity semiconductor layer is disposed in direct contact with an electrode and has a concentration of impurities higher than a concentration of impurities in the semiconductor layer, wherein the semiconductor layer is disposed in direct contact with and above the impurity semiconductor layer, wherein the electrode is disposed above the switch element and isolated per pixel and joined to the switch element, and further including an interlayer insulating layer, which is made of an organic material, which is disposed between the substrate and the plurality of electrodes, and which covers the switch elements, the method comprising: forming the electrodes in contact with the interlayer insulating layer, and insulating members each made of an inorganic material and disposed to cover the interlayer insulating layer between adjacent two of the electrodes; and forming an impurity semiconductor film that covers the insulating members and the electrodes, and that becomes the impurity semiconductor layer.
