ABSTRACT:
A sensor is provided. The sensor includes semiconductor layer; a photodiode, an impurity-doped polycrystalline silicon layer; and a gate electrode. The photodiode is formed in the semiconductor layer. The impurity-doped polycrystalline silicon layer is formed above the semiconductor layer. The gate electrode applies a gate voltage to the polycrystalline silicon layer. A wiring layer is provided on a first surface of the semiconductor layer and light is incident on a second surface thereof.
