MOLECULAR DEVICE, IMAGING DEVICE, PHOTOSENSOR AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a color imaging device and a photosensor that are stably usable for a long period with high definition and high sensitivity, and to provide a molecular device which is suitably used therefor.

SOLUTION: A photoelectric conversion element is formed by immobilizing cytochrome c552 13 on a gold electrode 11 via a self-assembled molecular monolayer 12 and coupling an electron transfer protein 14 having a photoelectric conversion function to the cytochrome c552 13. Alternatively, a photoelectric conversion element for green light or blue light is formed by immobilizing zinc-substituted cytochrome c552 or zinc-modified porphyrin cytochrome c552 on the gold electrode. The color imaging device or photosensor is constituted using those photoelectric conversion elements.
