ABSTRACT:
In a light or radiation detector manufacturing method and a light or radiation detector of this invention, when forming a semiconductor, the semiconductor is formed in a predetermined thickness on a dummy substrate by vapor deposition, subsequently the dummy substrate is replaced with a graphite substrate which is a supporting substrate, and the semiconductor continues to be formed on the graphite substrate by vapor deposition. The time when forming the semiconductor in the predetermined thickness on the dummy substrate by vapor deposition is an initial state, and a defective film inevitably to be formed is formed on the dummy substrate. Subsequently, a semiconductor not in the initial state is formed on the graphite substrate put as replacement. This realizes a detector having the semiconductor of higher quality than in the prior art. The semiconductor manufactured in this way is formed continuously at least in a direction of thickness.
