Solid electrolyte photocell

摘要

A photocell comprising a solid electrolyte film or layer and a pair of electrodes sandwiching therebetween the electrolyte film. The solid electrolyte is AgBr, AgI and silver halide-containing double salts and mixed salts. One of the electrodes is optically transparent and the other electrode is made of a material capable of forming a charge transfer complex with the halogen generated on photodissociation of the electrolyte.
