A solar cell includes a cathode component, an anode component, sealant for assembling the cathode component and the anode component to form a closed space, and electrolyte accommodated in the closed space, in which the cathode component contains a lower transparent conductive substrate, a nano-oxide semiconductor thin film formed on the lower transparent conductive substrate, and dye attached to a nano-particle surface of the nano-oxide semiconductor thin film; and the anode component contains an upper transparent conductive substrate, and an anode electrode layer formed on the upper transparent conductive substrate, the nano-oxide semiconductor thin film and the anode electrode layer being arranged opposite to each other and contacting with the electrolyte, in which the anode component further contains a CdTe layer which is patterned to have an opening, and the anode electrode layer is located in the opening of the CdTe layer.
