  • Publication number: 20230054533
    Abstract: A detection device includes a substrate, a plurality of photodiodes provided on the substrate, a plurality of transistors provided correspondingly to the respective photodiodes, a plurality of gate lines that extend in a first direction, a plurality of signal lines that extend in a second direction intersecting the first direction, a plurality of lower electrodes that are provided between the transistors and the photodiodes in a direction orthogonal to the substrate, and are provided correspondingly to the respective photodiodes, an upper electrode provided so as to extend across the photodiodes, and a reflective layer provided between the substrate and each of the photodiodes in the direction orthogonal to the substrate. Each of the lower electrodes has a smaller area than an area defined by the gate lines and the signal lines, and the reflective layer is provided between the lower electrodes adjacent to each other in a plan view.
