Both high light receiving sensitivity and high speed of a photodiode are achieved at the same time. The photodiode is provided with a semiconductor layer (1) and a pair of metal electrodes (2) which are arranged on the surface of the semiconductor layer (1) at an interval (d) and form an MSM junction. The interval (d) satisfies the relationship of λ>d>λ/100, where λ is the wavelength of incident light. The metal electrodes (2) can induce surface plasmon. At least one of the electrodes forms a Schottky junction with the semiconductor layer (1), and a low end portion is embedded in the semiconductor layer (1) to a position at a depth less than λ/2n, where n is the refractive index of the semiconductor layer (1).

In a waveguide path coupling-type photodiode, a semiconductor light absorbing layer and an optical waveguide path core are adjacently arranged. An electrode formed of at least one layer is installed in a boundary part of the semiconductor light absorbing layer and the optical waveguide path core. The electrodes are arranged at an interval of (1/100)λ to λ [λ: wavelength of light transmitted through optical waveguide path core]. At least a part of the electrodes is embedded in the semiconductor light absorbing layer. Embedding depth from a surface of the semiconductor light absorbing layer is a value not more than λ/(2 ns) [ns: refractive index of semiconductor light absorbing layer]. At least one layer of the electrode is constituted of a material which can surface plasmon-induced.

A light receiving circuit (114) includes a light inputting circuit (113) which converts one-system optical signal to be outputted from an optical transmission path (101) to an electrical signal and inverts a potential of the electrical signal each time the optical signal is detected, and a buffer circuit (110) which amplifies the electrical signal converted by the light inputting circuit and outputs the same. According to such configuration, since one-system optical signal may be inputted to the light receiving circuit, a system circuit configuration can be avoided to be complicated.

Intended is to provide a device structure, which makes the light receiving sensitivity and the high speediness of a photodiode compatible. Also provided is a Schottky barrier type photodiode having a conductive layer formed on the surface of a semiconductor layer.
