摘要： A frame-shaped holding frame which has a small thermal expansion coefficient is used. When a complex member in which a metal material is impregnated in a ceramic material, which has a smaller thermal expansion coefficient than 10 ppm/° C., is used, a warp and a wrinkle are greatly decreased. In particular, in the case of a material with a thermal expansion coefficient of 6.5 ppm/° C. or smaller, the warp and the wrinkle are not caused. When the flexible substrate is adhered to the holding frame by an adhesive, an adhesion area may be obtained so that a sufficient strength is kept. Also, since the flexible substrate is adhered onto the upper surface of the holding frame, the thickness of the holding frame is independent on fixing of the substrate. The thickness may be set so that a mechanical strength is kept and the substrate is smoothly transferred.

摘要： A stack including a first electrode, a first impurity semiconductor layer having one conductivity type, an intrinsic semiconductor layer, a second impurity semiconductor layer having an opposite conductivity type to the one conductivity type, and a light-transmitting second electrode is formed over an insulator. The light-transmitting second electrode and the second impurity semiconductor layer have one or more openings. The shortest distance between one portion of the wall of one opening and an opposite portion of the wall of the same opening at the level of the interface between the second impurity semiconductor layer and the intrinsic semiconductor layer is made smaller than the diffusion length of holes in the intrinsic semiconductor layer. Thus, recombination is suppressed, so that more photocarriers are generated due to the openings and taken out as current, whereby conversion efficiency is increased.

摘要： A photo-sensor having a structure which can suppress electrostatic discharge damage is provided. Conventionally, a transparent electrode has been formed over the entire surface of a light receiving region; however, in the present invention, the transparent electrode is not formed, and a p-type semiconductor layer and an n-type semiconductor layer of a photoelectric conversion layer are used as an electrode. Therefore, in the photo-sensor according to the present invention, resistance is increased an electrostatic discharge damage can be suppressed. In addition, positions of the p-type semiconductor layer and the n-type semiconductor layer, which serve as an electrode, are kept away; and thus, resistance is increased and withstand voltage can be improved.

摘要： The area occupied by a photo-sensor element may be reduced and multiple elements may be integrated in a limited area so that the sensor element can have higher output and smaller size. Higher output and miniaturization are achieved by uniting a sensor element using an amorphous semiconductor film (typically an amorphous silicon film) and an output amplifier circuit including a TFT with a semiconductor film having a crystal structure (typically a poly-crystalline silicon film) used as an active layer over a plastic film substrate that can resist the temperature in the process for mounting such as a solder reflow process. A sensor element that can resist bending stress can be obtained.
