The present invention relates to a photoelectric conversion device sensitized by supporting a methine based dye represented by the following formula (1):
(in the above formula, n represents an integer of 0 to 7; X and Y each represent a hydrogen atom, an optionally substituted aromatic residue, an optionally substituted aliphatic hydrocarbon residue and the like. In addition, X and Y may combine together to form an optionally substituted ring. A
1
, A
2
and A
3
represent each independently an optionally substituted aromatic residue, an optionally substituted aliphatic hydrocarbon residue and the like. In addition, when n is other than 0, a plural number of A
1
and/or A
2
and/or A
3
may form an optionally substituted ring. The benzene ring “a” may have substituent selected from a halogen atom, an amide group, a hydroxyl group, a cyano group and the like);
on a thin film of oxide semiconductor fine particles provided on a substrate, and has features that the device can be manufactured at low cost and has high conversion efficiency.
