Abstract

A photoelectric conversion element comprises a substrate, a plurality of separate electrodes arranged in a row on the substrate, signal lead-out parts extending from the separate electrodes alternately to the left and the right in a direction perpendicular to the arranging direction of the separate electrodes, a photoelectric conversion layer covering the row of the separate electrodes, a transparent electrode formed on the photoelectric conversion layer, and a light shielding conductive layer formed on the transparent electrode. The light shielding conductive layer is shaped to shield the light beam projected toward the overlapping portion between at least those portions of the signal lead-out parts which abut against the separate electrodes and the photoelectric converison layer.
