<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a photoelectrochemical battery, in which the charge transport layer such as an electrolyte and a solvent or the like contained in the charge transport layer will not be lost, and which has superior durability, even if it is stored at a high temperature. <P>SOLUTION: A conductive substrate, semiconductor particulates with photosensitive coloring elements absorbed, and a laminate containing a charge transport layer and a counter electrode, are sealed by a sealing compound, to make the photoelectrochemical battery. The sealing compound contains resin, containing a hydroxyl group, such as ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer, partially saponified polyvinyl alcohol, or fully saponified polyvinyl alcohol. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
