摘要

The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a photoelectric conversion device, which is capable of improving utilization efficiency of a dye. A conductive base (1) of a photoelectric conversion device is provided with a porous semiconductor layer (3) on which a dye is adsorbed; a sealing member (6) is formed around the conductive base; and a projected parts (41, 46) are formed between the porous semiconductor layer and the sealing member so as to surround the porous semiconductor layer. By having an elastic member of a cover body of a liquid retaining jig closely adhere to the projected parts (41, 46), a liquid retaining space for retaining a dye solution is formed. Consequently, the dye is adsorbed on the porous semiconductor layer, while suppressing leakage of the dye solution.
