The width of the light-transmitting grooves 32 is greater than or equal to the width of the gaps between the plurality of cells 2. By providing the light-transmitting grooves 32, the infrared light incident on the gaps between the plurality of cells 2 can be irradiated on the first light reflecting layer 11.
[0058] The material of the insulating layer 3 is different from that of the first light reflecting layer 11 .
[0059] Specifically, the material of the first reflective layer 11 includes a pigment with infrared reflection and infrared transmission functions. The material of the first reflective layer 11 may include at least one of perylene-3,4,9,10 tetracarboxamide derivatives, inorganic chrome black series, and phthalocyanine series.
