Abstract:
An object of the present invention is to provide a photoelectric conversion element having a photoelectric conversion film which exhibits heat resistance, a high photoelectric conversion efficiency, a low level of dark currents, rapid response, and sensitivity characteristics to red and can be produced by a vapor deposition processing that is continuously performed under a high-temperature condition. The photoelectric conversion element of the present invention is a photoelectric conversion element in which a conductive film, a photoelectric conversion film containing a photoelectric conversion material, and a transparent conductive film are laminated on one another in this order, wherein the photoelectric conversion material includes a compound represented by Formula (1).
Abstract:
A photoelectric conversion element is provided and includes: an electrically conductive thin layer; an organic photoelectric conversion layer; and a transparent electrically conductive thin layer. The organic photoelectric conversion layer contains: a compound represented by formula (I); and a fullerene or a fullerene derivative.Formula (I): In the formula, Z1 represents an atomic group necessary for forming a 5- or 6-membered ring, L1, L2 and L3 each independently represents an unsubstituted methine group or a substituted methine group, D1 represents an atomic group, and n represents an integer of 0 or more.
