<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a semiconductor for a photoelectric conversion material, which shows high photoelectric conversion efficiency and stability, a photoelectric conversion element, and a solar battery. <P>SOLUTION: This semiconductor for the photoelectric conversion material contains a monomethine compound expressed by a general formula 1. In the formula 1, A expresses an aromatic carbocyclic ring of five-membered or six-membered ring or a heterocyclic ring. In addition, Q expresses an atom group capable of giving ability to absorb the compound expressed by the general formula 1 into a visible region or a near infrared region, and this Q has at least one -COOM group directly or through a linking group. Furthermore, M expresses a hydrogen atom or a salt forming cation. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI |
