To provide a dimming element that can have an electrode for driving easily processed and also easily obtain excellent patterning of a conductive layer.SOLUTION: A dimming element has: a dimming layer including a resin matrix and a light adjusting suspension dispersed in the resin matrix; and two transparent base materials provided on both surfaces of the dimming layer. The transparent base materials are independently a transparent conductive base material having a conductive layer and a transparent non-conductive base material having no conductive layer, respectively, and the transparent base material which is the transparent conductive base material has a surface, where the conductive layer is not provided, is opposed to the dimming layer.SELECTED DRAWING: None 【課題】駆動させるための電極を容易に加工でき導電層の良好なパターニングが容易に得られる調光素子を提供する。【解決手段】調光素子は、樹脂マトリックス及び前記樹脂マトリックス中に分散した光調整懸濁液を含む調光層と、前記調光層の両面に設けられる、２つの透明基材と、を有する。前記透明基材は、それぞれ独立に、導電層を有する透明導電性基材又は導電層を有さない透明非導電性基材であり、前記透明基材が前記透明導電性基材の場合には、前記導電層が設けられていない面が、前記調光層に対向している。【選択図】なし
