<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To perfectly seal an inlet for a liquid material after filling the liquid material, and to enhance long-term reliability of sealing performance, in a dye-sensitized solar cell having a structure with the liquid material filled between two substrates. <P>SOLUTION: The inlet 5 is formed on a first substrate 1, the liquid material 3 is filled in a space from the inlet 5, and the inlet 5 is sealed by inserting a sealing plug 6 into the inlet 5. The shape of the inlet 5 is formed into a tapered shape broadened toward the outside surface of the first substrate 1 from the inside surface thereof, and the shape of the sealing plug 6 is preferably formed into a tapered shape tapering toward a tip in its insertion direction. In addition, the inlet 5 with the sealing plug 6 inserted therein is covered with a single or multilayer cover material 7. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT |
