To provide a manufacturing method of a dye-sensitized photoelectric conversion element with which practically useful power generation performance can be obtained and a highly designed dye-sensitized solar cell can be manufactured efficiently, and to provide a manufacturing method of a dye-sensitized solar cell or dye-sensitized solar cell module in which such effects can be presented.
A manufacturing method includes the steps of forming a porous semiconductor layer on a support, floating a water pressure transfer film in which a dye layer containing dyes is formed on a water-soluble or water-swellable substrate sheet, on a water surface in such a manner that a side of the substrate sheet is turned down, and then transferring the dye layer onto the porous semiconductor layer through water pressure transfer pushing the porous semiconductor layer formed on the support from above the water surface toward underwater, and allowing the dye layer transferred onto the porous semiconductor layer to flow and adsorbing the dyes contained in the dye layer into the porous semiconductor layer.
