(57) [Problem] To provide a solar cell which can be manufactured at low cost and has excellent photoelectric conversion efficiency. A solar cell (1A) shown in FIG. And a first electrode 3 provided on the upper surface of the first substrate 2; A light receiving layer 4 disposed on the upper surface of the first electrode 3; (Wall member) 5 having a storage space 8 therein, a second electrode 6 opposed to the light receiving layer 4 with the wall 5 interposed therebetween, and a second electrode 6 has a second substrate 7 installed on the upper surface and an electrolyte solution 81 stored in a storage space 8. The wall portion 5 has a function of keeping the distance (distance) between the first electrode 3 and the second electrode 6 constant. By providing the wall portion 5, in the solar cell 1A, the strength can be maintained, and particularly, at least the deformation of the light receiving layer 4 and the electrolyte solution 81 (electrolyte) can be prevented. |
