Patent ID: 7952156

Claim:
A photoelectric conversion device comprising a photo-electric conversion part including a first electrode layer, a second electrode layer, a photoelectric conversion layer provided between the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer and a light-shielding layer provided on at least part of the second electrode layer such that the first electrode layer, the photoelectric conversion layer, the second electrode layer and the light-shielding layer are provided in this order, wherein light is made incident from an upper part of the second electrode layer into the photoelectric conversion layer; the photoelectric conversion layer generates a charge containing an electron and a hole corresponding to the incident light from the upper part of the second electrode layer; and the first electrode layer works as an electrode for extracting the hole; wherein the photoelectric conversion layer contains an organic material; wherein the organic material contains at least one of an organic p-type semiconductor and an organic n-type semi-conductor; and wherein the organic p-type semiconductor and the organic n-type semiconductor each independently contains at least one of quinacridone derivatives, naphthalene derivatives, anthracene derivatives, phenanthrene derivatives, tetracene derivatives, pyrene derivatives, perylene derivatives, and fluoranthene derivatives.
