Abstract

A dye-sensitized solar cell includes four generation cells, wherein their negative electrodes and positive electrodes are facing each other, with an electrolytic solution sealed in between, and being contacted by generation layers. On the other main side of a polyimide layer on which the positive electrodes are formed, wiring layers corresponding to the positive electrodes are provided in positions overlapping with both the corresponding positive electrodes and the positive electrodes adjacent thereto. The wiring layers corresponding to the positive electrodes are connected by through holes and conductor penetrating the polyimide layer. The negative electrodes of the generation cells are connected, on the outer periphery side, with the wiring layers that are connected to the positive electrodes of the adjacent generation cells, except for the wiring layer and negative electrode on which leader terminal parts are formed.
