Title:
DYE-SENSITIZED PHOTOELECTRIC CONVERSION DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/100033
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Disclosed is a photoelectric conversion device wherein a methine dye represented by the formula (1) below is supported by a thin film of oxide semiconductor particles arranged on a substrate. Also disclosed is a solar cell manufactured by using such a photoelectric conversion device. (In the formula (1), n represents an integer of 0-5; m represents an integer of 0-5; R1-R4 independently represent a hydrogen atom, an optionally substituted aromatic residue, an optionally substituted aliphatic hydrocarbon residue or the like; X and Y independently represent a hydrogen atom, an optionally substituted aromatic residue, an optionally substituted aliphatic hydrocarbon residue or the like; Z represents an oxygen atom, a sulfur atom or the like; A1, A2, A3, A4 and A5 independently represent a hydrogen atom, an optionally substituted aromatic residue, an optionally substituted aliphatic hydrocarbon residue or the like; and rings a, b and c may be substituted.)
