ABSTRACT:
The absorption of moisture from a wall surface of an apertured part formed in an interlayer insulating film in accordance with a light-receiving part of a light detector is minimized and deterioration of wiring in the interlayer insulating film is prevented. A position that corresponds to a light-receiving part52of a wiring-structure layer90obtained by layering an Al layer and an interlayer insulating film composed of SOG or another material is etched, and an apertured part120is formed. A silicon nitride film130is then deposited on a side-wall surface and bottom surface of the apertured part120via CVD. The silicon nitride layer130prevents moisture from infiltrating the wiring-structure layer90.
