Abstract:
This light-receiving element includes: a substrate; a photoelectric conversion layer that is provided on the substrate and includes a first compound semiconductor, and absorbs a wavelength in an infrared region to generate electric charges; a semiconductor layer that is provided on the photoelectric conversion layer and includes a second compound semiconductor, and has an opening in a selective region; and an electrode that buries the opening of the semiconductor layer and is electrically coupled to the photoelectric conversion layer.

Claim (Index 16):
The method of manufacturing the light-receiving element according to  claim 15 , wherein the step of forming the photoelectric conversion layer and the semiconductor layer includes:\n forming the first and second compound semiconductors in order on the substrate, followed by forming the protective layer thereon, and forming, with the protective layer as a mask, the first conductivity-type layer and the first conductivity-type region by diffusing an impurity in selective regions of the first and the second compound semiconductors.
