A dye-sensitized photoelectric conversion apparatus having enhanced energy conversion efficiency and a production method thereof are provided. The dye-sensitized photoelectric conversion apparatus which has semiconductor layer ( 13 ) containing a photosensitizing dye ( 14 ) and is constituted such that a charge carrier generated by allowing light to incident in the photosensitizing dye ( 14 ) is drawn out through the semiconductor layer ( 13 ), in which the semiconductor layer ( 13 ) is constituted by a plurality of regions ( 13 A to 13 D) having different energy levels from one another of a passage through which the charge carrier is transferred. Further, the plurality of regions ( 13 A to 13 D) are arranged such that the energy levels are reduced stepwise and/or continuously in the direction of drawing the charge carrier out.
