Abstract:
A photosensor includes: a first electrode; a second electrode; a photoelectric conversion layer that is located between the first and second electrodes and generates electric charges; a first charge blocking layer located between the first electrode and the photoelectric conversion layer; a second charge blocking layer located between the second electrode and the photoelectric conversion layer; a voltage supply circuit that applies a voltage to at least one of the first and second electrodes such that an electric field is generated in the photoelectric conversion layer; and a detection circuit that detects a signal corresponding to a change in capacitance between the first and second electrodes. The first charge blocking layer suppresses movement of electric charges between the photoelectric conversion layer and the first electrode. The second charge blocking layer suppresses movement of electric charges between the photoelectric conversion layer and the second electrode.

Claim (Index 6):
The photosensor according to  claim 1 , wherein\n the voltage supply circuit applies, between the first electrode and the second electrode, a voltage obtained by superimposing a first voltage on a second voltage, the first voltage having an amplitude that varies periodically, the second voltage being a DC voltage that causes an electric field directed from the second electrode toward the first electrode to be generated in the photoelectric conversion layer, and the detection circuit detects an electric current flowing between the first electrode and the second electrode.
