COLOR IMAGING ELEMENTS AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREFOR, PHOTOSENSORS AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREFOR, PHOTOELECTRIC TRANSDUCERS AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREFOR, AND ELECTRONIC DEVICES

摘要

A color imaging element, a photosensor and a photoelectric transducer which use a protein and are capable of being stably used for a long time, and methods of manufacturing them are provided. A zinc-substituted cytochrome c552 13 is immobilized on a gold electrode 11 with a self-assembled monolayer 12 in between to form a blue-light photoelectric transducer. Alternatively, a cytochrome c552 is immobilized on a gold electrode with a self assembled monolayer in between, and a fluorescent protein absorbing blue light is bonded to the cytochrome c552, thereby forming a blue-light photoelectric transducer. These photoelectric transducers each are used as a color imaging element or a blue-light photoelectric transducer of a photosensor.
