DYE-SENSITIZED SOLAR CELL

摘要

There is provided a dye-sensitized solar cell that may improve power generation efficiency by suppressing light absorption of a wiring part. The dye-sensitized solar cell 10 includes a first electrode substrate 11, a second electrode substrate 16, and an electrolyte layer 17. The first electrode substrate includes a porous oxide semiconductor layer 15 and a wiring part 19 on a side of one surface thereof. A dye is carried on the porous oxide semiconductor layer, and the wiring part is provided at a portion adjacent to the porous oxide semiconductor layer 15. The second electrode substrate is disposed so as to face the porous oxide semiconductor layer 15 of the first electrode substrate 11. The electrolyte layer is disposed at least at a part of a gap between the first and second electrode substrates 11 and 16. At least one of the first electrode substrate 11, the wiring part 19, and the second electrode substrate 16 is provided with an incident light direction changing part 18 that changes the direction of incident light at a position corresponding to the wiring part.
