Patent ID: 8173892

Claim:
A photoelectric conversion device, comprising: a first conductive support having a layer containing a semiconductor; a second conductive support arranged opposite to the first conductive support and having a counter electrode; a charge transfer layer interposed between the first conductive support and the second conductive support at a predetermined distance from the supports; and a bank of a continuous sealing agent which is arranged around the charge transfer layer in the form of a double or more layers and is interposed between the first conductive support and the second conductive support at a predetermined distance from said supports, wherein the bank of the continuous sealing agent adheres to the first conductive support and the second conductive support, wherein the photoelectric conversion device has neither an injection port for injecting said charge transfer layer nor a sealed portion of the injection port on the conductive supports and said bank of the continuous sealing agent, wherein the composition of the sealing agent used in a portion which contacts said charge transfer layer differs from that of the sealing agent in a portion which does not contact said charge transfer layer.
