A photoelectronic device includes a semiconductor substrate doped with a first type impurity, a second semiconductor layer doped with a second type impurity of an opposite type to the first type impurity, a transparent electrode formed on a second surface of the second semiconductor layer, the second surface being opposite a first surface on which the semiconductor substrate is formed, and a barrier layer disposed between the second semiconductor layer and the semiconductor substrate or between the second semiconductor layer and the transparent electrode. The second semiconductor layer has a band gap energy less than that of the semiconductor substrate, and the barrier layer includes a semiconductor material or an insulator having a band gap greater than that of the semiconductor substrate.
