PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a metal complex, a metal complex dye, dye solution, and a dye attraction electrode used for a photoelectric conversion element and a dye-sensitized solar cell which improve light absorption and light spectral characteristic in a long wavelength region to be excellent in photoelectric conversion efficiency and durability, and a manufacturing method of the dye-sensitized solar cell.SOLUTION: A photoreceptor layer of a photoelectric conversion element includes a semiconductor fine particle carrying a metal complex dye represented by the following formula: M(LD)(LA)(LX) (Y)n. A metal complex, a metal complex dye, dye solution, and a dye attraction electrode are used for the photoelectric conversion element, and a manufacturing method of a dye-sensitized solar cell is provided. In the formula, M is a metal ion, LD is a bidentate ligand consisting of one anion and one lone electron pair and being oriented toward M, LA is a tridentate ligand, LX expresses -S(Rz1), -O(Rz1) or -N(Rz1), or a monodentate ligand, Y expresses a counter ion necessary for neutralizing electric charge, and n expresses an integer of 0-4. |
