<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a dye-sensitized solar cell capable of supplying power stably for long periods of time and being easily manufactured with less expensive materials, and also to provide a nano-carbon electrode capable of using for the cell. <P>SOLUTION: A dye-sensitized solar cell comprises a pair of glass substrates 1, a FTO electrode 2 formed on the negative electrode side of the glass substrate 1, a titanium dioxide film 3 formed on the FTO electrode and made to absorb a dye, a nano-carbon electrode 6 formed on the positive electrode side of the glass substrate 1, and an electrolyte layer 5 formed between the nano-carbon electrode 6 and the titanium dioxide film 3 made to absorb a dye. Wherein, the nano carbon electrode 6 is formed from fibrous carbon materials, such as a single wall carbon nanotube, multi-wall carbon nanotube, or carbon nano-fiber. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO |
