Abstract
A photoelectric conversion device includes a blocking unit located between a photoelectric conversion layer and a second electrode unit and configured to cause electric charge having a first polarity to be injected from the photoelectric conversion layer into the second electrode unit and to prevent electric charge having a second polarity opposite to the first polarity from being injected from the photoelectric conversion layer into the second electrode unit, and a voltage supply unit configured to supply a second voltage to one of a first electrode unit and the second electrode unit such that electric charge having the first polarity is prevented from being injected from the photoelectric conversion layer into the second electrode unit.
