【発明の詳細な説明】 〔発明の技術分野〕 この発明は新規な光電変換素子に関する。[Detailed description of the invention] [Technical field of invention] The present invention relates to a novel photoelectric conversion element.
従来、光電変換素子としては、主としてシリコン半導体

電池が考案され、実用化されている。Conventionally, as a photoelectric conversion element, a solar cell obtained mainly by forming a near-surface (Kp-n junction) of a silicon semiconductor has been devised and put into practical use.

光増感能を利用したものなどの検討も行われている。However, in addition to this, we are also investigating other inexpensive organic materials, such as those that use conductive polymer materials such as polyacetylene as semiconductors, and those that utilize the photosensitizing ability of organic dyes such as phthalocyanine. It is being said.

である。The principle of this operation is that when light (8) transmitted through the transparent or semi-transparent electrode (1) enters the organic compound layer (2), it reaches the interface between the transparent or semi-transparent electrode (1) and the organic compound layer (2). A potential difference is generated, and photo-induced power is generated between the lead wires (5) and (7). In addition, (4),
(6) Ti lead connection end. In this case, it is necessary that an anisotropic junction (for example, a p-n junction) or a Schottky junction be formed between the transparent or semi-transparent electrode (1) and the organic compound layer (2), and that the organic compound layer M(2) and electrode (3) need to be in isotropic contact, for example ohmic contact. More specifically, the value of its own work function (Fermi level) under light irradiation is transparent or semitransparent electrode (1) > organic compound layer (2) two electrodes (3), or transparent or semitransparent electrode (1) It is necessary to have an electrode (3) on the organic compound layer (2), and a lead wire (5)
, (7), in the former case, (5) is normally the positive electrode, and in the latter case, (7) is the positive electrode. Organic photoelectric conversion elements are intended to apply this operating principle.

By using a layer in which a second n-type organic material layer, a p-type organic material layer, and two conductive materials are provided in this order, the response wavelength range is broadened, and the separation effect of the nnp junction allows for nn and pn junctions. It is an object of the present invention to provide a photoelectric conversion element in which the photoelectric conversion efficiency increases more roughly and in which a cheaper organic material can be used.

Type is absorbed by organic materials. 1st. The light absorbed by the second n-type organic material generates electron-hole pairs and generates a photocurrent, but
Compared to homojunctions, light with a shorter wavelength can also be used, resulting in a larger photocurrent. In other words, broadband characteristics can be achieved.
