A photoelectric conversion module is a photoelectric conversion module including a translucent substrate and one or more photoelectric conversion elements formed on the translucent substrate, wherein each of the photoelectric conversion elements is formed by stacking a transparent conductive film, a first charge transport layer, a power generation layer, and a second charge transport layer made of a porous film containing a carbon material, in this order from the side of the translucent substrate, and a portion of the second charge transport layer of at least one of the photoelectric conversion elements, the portion facing another transparent conductive film adjacent to the transparent conductive film of the photoelectric conversion element is electrically connected to the other transparent conductive film via a conductive layer that is thicker than a thickness of adding up the first charge transport layer and the power generation layer.

Photoelectric conversion module and method for manufacturing the same

A photoelectric conversion element module () includes a plurality of photoelectric conversion elements () formed on a light-transmitting base plate (). The photoelectric conversion elements () each include a transparent conductive film (), a first charge transport layer (), a power-generating layer (), and a second charge transport layer () stacked in order from a side corresponding to the light-transmitting base plate (). The second charge transport layer () is formed of a porous film that contains a carbon material. Among two of the photoelectric conversion elements () that are adjacent to each other, the second charge transport layer () of one photoelectric conversion element and the transparent conductive film () of the other photoelectric conversion element are electrically connected via a first conductive adhesive layer (), a current-collecting electrode (), and a second conductive adhesive layer ().
