Abstract

The present invention provides photophysicochemical cell which comprises, as the photoanode electrode (a) an electrode formed of a porous semiconductor material which, under ultraviolet irradiation condition, is photo-excited and functions as a porous electrically conductive material in an ultraviolet region, or (b) the porous semiconductor material capable of functioning as an ultraviolet-region electrically conductive material is selected from the group consisting of titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, tin dioxide, tungsten oxide, and silicon carbide, and (c) the porous semiconductor material which constitutes the photoanode electrode capable of functioning as an ultraviolet-region electrically conductive material has large effective surface area of some hundreds times to thousands times the apparent surface area of the electrode.
