PHOTOELECTRIC DEVICE

This invention aims to provide a photpelectrical device with a superior conversion efficiency, which comprises an electron transport layer giving a superior electron-transporting performance and a sufficiently large dimentional interface. The photoelectric device further comprises a pair of electrode and a hole transport layer with the electron transport layer and the hole transport layer being interposed between electrodes. The electron transport layer is made of an organic compound having a redox moiety capable of being oxidized and reduced repeatedly. The organic compound is included in a gel layer containing an electrolyte solution which stabilizes a reduction state of the redox moiety.
