A photoelectric conversion element includes a first electrode, a second electrode, a first layer, and a second layer. The first layer is provided between the first electrode and the second electrode. The second layer is provided between the first layer and the second electrode. The first layer contains selenium. The second layer contains In, Ga, Zn, and O. The second layer may contain an In—Ga—Zn oxide. The selenium may be crystalline selenium. The first layer functions as a photoelectric conversion layer. The second layer functions as a hole injection blocking layer. The In—Ga—Zn oxide may have a c-axis aligned crystal.
