実施例7では、実施例5の湿式太陽電池モジュールの製造工程に加えて、図11中の左側の外周封止層19の両端の第1電極11および第2電極21に貫通部50を形成する工程を含むこと以外は、実施例5と同様の方法により、図11に示される、湿式太陽電池モジュールを作製した。
実施例8では、実施例1の湿式太陽電池モジュールの製造工程の第2電極の作製工程において、あらかじめ図5に示される貫通部が形成されるように設計したパターンのスクリーンを用いて、スクリーン印刷機(装置名:LS-34TVA(ニューロング社製))により、第1電極11上にITOペーストを塗布した。この塗布したITOペーストを焼成することにより、膜厚1μmのITO多孔質層からなる第2電極21を形成した。このITOペーストは、以下の方法により作製したものを用いた。
実施例1~8および比較例1~2で作製した色素増感型太陽電池モジュールを、第1絶縁性基板が受光面となるように、第2絶縁性基板側を25℃に制御された黒色のステージに設置した。そして、第1絶縁性基板に対し、AM1.5の擬似太陽光(ソーラーシュミレータ)を照射した直後の湿式太陽電池モジュールの変換効率(Eff(%))と、AM1.5の擬似太陽光を100時間照射し続けた後の湿式太陽電池モジュールの変換効率(Eff(%))とを測定し、これにより得られた値を表1にまとめた。
