MANUFACTURING METHOD OF DYE-SENSITIZED SOLAR CELL, AND DYE-SENSITIZED SOLAR CELL

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a manufacturing method of a dye-sensitized solar cell in which the cell having superior energy conversion efficiency can be constituted easily, and provide the dye-sensitized solar cell obtained by this. SOLUTION: This is the manufacturing method of the dye-sensitized solar cell having a photo electrode 10 to possess a semiconductor electrode 2 and a transparent electrode 1 formed on a light receiving face F2 of the semiconductor electrode 2, a counter electrode CE, and a porous body layer PS containing an electrolyte arranged between the electrode 2 and the counter electrode. This method has a fifth process in which the photo electrode is formed, a sixth process in which a liquid containing an insulating porous body material is coated and dried on the electrode 2, and in which a precursor layer of a layer PS is at least formed on the electrode 2, a seventh process in which a liquid containing an electroconductive carbon material is coated and dried on a laminated body obtained after the sixth process and in which the precursor layer of the counter electrode is at least formed, and an eighth process in which the laminated body obtained in the seventh process is immersed in a treatment liquid containing a titanium compound and the laminated body is taken out from the treatment liquid, washed, and applied heat treatment under an oxidative atmosphere in a temperature range 400-600°C.
