A photoelectric conversion element has a conductive support, a photoreceptor layer containing an electrolyte, a charge carrier layer containing an electrolyte and a counter electrode, and the photoreceptor layer has semiconductor particles on which a metal complex dye represented by Formula (I) is carried. M1(LA)(LD)(Z1).CI  Formula (I) M1 represents a metal atom; Z1 represents a monodentate ligand; LA represents a tridentate ligand represented by Formula (AL-1); LD represents a bidentate ligand represented by Formula (DL-1); and CI represents a counterion necessary for neutralizing the charge.
