    摘要: Provided is a semiconductor photodiode which has an electrode structure having not only high adhesion to a Mg2Si material but also improved overall performance including photosensitivity. A photodiode comprising: a pn junction of a magnesium silicide crystal; an electrode comprising a material that is in contact with p-type magnesium silicide; and an electrode comprising a material that is in contact with n-type magnesium silicide, wherein the material that is in contact with p-type magnesium silicide is a material which has a work function of 4.81 eV or more and reacts with silicon to form a silicide or form an alloy with magnesium.
