Abstract:
1. A photoelectric conversion device, comprising: a first substrate and a second substrate facing each other and having a space between the first substrate and the second substrate, the first substrate comprising a flat outer surface facing away the second substrate and a flat inner surface facing towards the second substrate, the second substrate comprising a flat outer surface facing away the first substrate and a flat inner surface facing towards the first substrate, the space having a thickness corresponding to a distance between the first and second substrates; a first electrode being arranged on the first substrate, the first electrode comprising a transparent conductive layer formed of a first material and a conductive grid electrode formed of a second material disposed on the transparent conductive layer and a semiconductor layer formed of a third material disposed on the grid electrode, with the first, second and third material being different from each other; a second electrode being arranged on the second substrate; an electrolyte arranged within the space between the first substrate and the second substrate; an electrolyte injecting aperture arranged on the first substrate to inject said electrolyte into said space; and a sealing structure sealing the electrolyte injecting aperture, the sealing structure comprising a water vapor absorption material to absorb water, the sealing structure comprising a first portion disposed within the electrolyte injecting aperture and a second portion disposed in the space between the first and second substrates, the second portion radially extending from an end of the first portion, a thickness of the second portion of the sealing structure being equal to the thickness of the space, the sealing structure protruding from the outer surface of the first substrate towards an exterior of the photoelectric conversion device, the sealing structure protruding from the inner surface of the first substrate and terminating at the inner surface of the second substrate.
