- the metal complex dye is adsorbed to the semiconductor fine particles by bringing the semiconductor fine particles and the metal complex dye into contact with each other for a long time at a temperature of about room temperature.
- shortening the adsorption time of the metal complex dye often reduces the amount of adsorption of the metal complex dye adsorbed on the semiconductor fine particles. Therefore, the photoelectric conversion efficiency of a photoelectric conversion element and a dye-sensitized solar cell falls.

L'invention concerne : un élément de conversion photoélectrique qui comprend un corps de support conducteur, une couche photosensible contenant un électrolyte, une couche de transfert de charges contenant un électrolyte, et une contre-électrode, la couche photosensible comprenant de fines particules de semi-conducteur sur lesquelles est chargé un colorant à complexe métallique qui est représenté par la formule (I) ; une cellule solaire à colorant ; un colorant à complexe métallique utilisé dans l'élément de conversion photoélectrique et la cellule solaire à colorant ; une solution de colorant ; et un composé terpyridine ou un produit d'estérification de celui-ci. Formule (I) : M(LA)(LD)p(LX)q∙(CI)z. Dans la formule (I), M représente un ion métallique. LD représente un ligand bidenté ou tridenté. p représente 0 ou 1. LX représente un ligand monodenté. q représente 0, 1 ou 3. CI représente un contre-ion. z représente un entier de 0 à 3. LA représente un ligand tridenté qui est représenté par la formule (LA-1). Dans la formule (LA-1), Za, Zb et Zc représentent chacun un groupe d'atomes non métalliques qui est nécessaire pour compléter un cycle à 5 ou 6 chaînons. Au moins l'un du cycle Za et du cycle Zb comprend un groupe acide. R1 et R2 représentent chacun un groupe alkyle ou un groupe cyclique aromatique.
