Photosensor for detecting the position of incident light in two dimensions using a pair of film resistors and a photoconductive element sandwiched therebetween
First Claim
1. A photosensor for detecting the position of incident light in two dimensions and the photoelectric current, comprising:
- a transparent member made of glass substrate and having parallel first and second surfaces;
X-axis light position detection element for detecting a X-axis position of light illuminated thereon;
Y-axis light position detection element for detecting a Y-axis position of light illuminated thereon;
a plurality of photoelectric current detection elements for detecting a photoelectric current due to a photoelectromotive force generated on a portion thereof illuminated with said light according to an intensity of said light, said X-axis light position detection element, said Y-axis light position detection element and said plurality of photoelectric current detection elements being disposed on said first surface of said transparent member;
a light screening film mounted on said second surface of said transparent member and having a cross-shaped transmission hole through which light illuminated thereon passes.

Abstract
A position detection element 4 is formed by sequentially depositing an X-axis resistor film 5, a photoconductive film 6 and a Y-axis resistor film 7 on one surface of a glass substrate 2 which is a transparent member. Further, a light screening film 3 is formed on the other surface of the glass substrate 2. At that time, a pin hole 31 through which light is transmitted is formed at a central portion of the light screening film 3. Where the position detection element 4 and the light screening film 3 are formed integrally with and on the glass substrate 2, mounting of the glass substrate 2 on a casing of a sensor enables the position detection element 4 and the light screening film 3 to be mounted on the casing of the sensor, thus improving the mounting property of the light position detection element 4 and the light screening film 3 on the casing.
