 軽量化、低コスト化及び柔軟化が可能であることから、液晶ディスプレイ又は有機エレクトロルミネッセンス(有機EL)ディスプレイに用いられるFET(電界効果トランジスタ)、RFID(Radio Frequency Identifier、RFタグ)又はメモリなどの論理回路を用いる装置等に、有機半導体層(有機半導体膜)を有する有機薄膜トランジスタ(有機TFT(thin film transistor))が利用されている。 Because it is possible to reduce weight, cost and flexibility, such as FET (Field Effect Transistor), RFID (Radio Frequency Identifier, RF tag) or memory used for liquid crystal display or organic electroluminescence (organic EL) display An organic thin film transistor (organic TFT (thin film transistor)) having an organic semiconductor layer (organic semiconductor film) is used in a device using a logic circuit.
 昨今、有機薄膜トランジスタへの期待が高まるなか、有機薄膜トランジスタには、移動度(特にキャリア移動度)の向上及び安定性(絶縁信頼性の向上)などが求められている。
 このようななか、特許文献1には、「トランジスタにおいて、半導体層、上記半導体層の上又は内に配置されたチャネル、上記半導体層の上又は内に配置されたソース、上記半導体層の上又は内に配置されたドレイン、上記半導体層と電気的に結合されたゲート、及び光活性材料であって、(a)上記半導体層に隣接し、上記半導体層と接触して、(b)上記半導体層内に、又は(c)上記ソース、上記ドレイン及び上記ゲートの1つないしさらに多くの内に、配された光活性材料、を有し、分子、陽子及び/又はイオンが上記光活性材料から上記半導体材料内に拡散する、ことを特徴とするトランジスタ。」が開示されている。

 本発明者は、特許文献1に記載の方法を参照して、有機薄膜トランジスタの製造を行ったところ、製造された有機薄膜トランジスタは、有機半導体層を構成する有機半導体材料が結晶化された後に、有機半導体層中あるいはその近傍に配された光酸発生剤を光照射によって分解し、分解フラグメントを有機半導体層へ拡散させる構成をとるため、比較的結晶性を乱さずにドーピングすることが可能であることが確認された。
 しかしながら、引用文献1に記載された光酸発生剤はいずれも低分子型光酸発生剤であるため、拡散性には優れるものの、場合によっては、拡散によって有機薄膜トランジスタの絶縁性能が低下し、すなわち、ON/OFF比が低下する傾向があることを知見した。
 また、昨今の有機薄膜トランジスタに対する移動度(特にキャリア移動度)向上の要求を鑑みると、さらに高いキャリア移動度を有する有機薄膜トランジスタが望まれるところである。
The present inventor made an organic thin film transistor by referring to the method described in Patent Document 1, and the manufactured organic thin film transistor was organic after the organic semiconductor material constituting the organic semiconductor layer was crystallized. Since the photoacid generator disposed in or near the semiconductor layer is decomposed by light irradiation and the decomposed fragments are diffused into the organic semiconductor layer, it is possible to dope without disturbing the crystallinity relatively. It was confirmed.
However, since all of the photoacid generators described in the cited document 1 are low molecular photoacid generators, the diffusibility is excellent, but in some cases, the insulation performance of the organic thin film transistor is reduced due to diffusion, that is, It was found that the ON / OFF ratio tends to decrease.
In view of recent demands for improving mobility (particularly carrier mobility) with respect to organic thin film transistors, organic thin film transistors having higher carrier mobility are desired.
 本発明は、上記実情に鑑みて、キャリア移動度及び絶縁信頼性に優れた有機薄膜トランジスタ、並びにそれを作製することができる有機半導体層形成用組成物を提供することを目的とする。 In view of the above circumstances, an object of the present invention is to provide an organic thin film transistor excellent in carrier mobility and insulation reliability, and an organic semiconductor layer forming composition capable of producing the same.

〔有機薄膜トランジスタ〕
 本発明の有機薄膜トランジスタ(以下、単に「本発明のOTFT」という。)の構造を以下に説明する。
[Organic thin film transistor]
The structure of the organic thin film transistor of the present invention (hereinafter simply referred to as “OTFT of the present invention”) will be described below.
 本発明のOTFTは、基板上に、ゲート電極と、有機半導体層と、ゲート電極と有機半導体層との間に設けられたゲート絶縁層と、有機半導体層に接して設けられ、有機半導体を介して連結されたソース電極及びドレイン電極とを有する。ゲート電極に電圧が印加されると、ソース電極-ドレイン電極間の有機半導体層とこれに隣接する層との界面に電流の流路(チャネル)が形成される。すなわち、ゲート電極に印加される入力電圧に応じて、ソース電極とドレイン電極との間を流れる電流が制御される。 The OTFT of the present invention is provided on a substrate in contact with an organic semiconductor layer, a gate electrode, an organic semiconductor layer, a gate insulating layer provided between the gate electrode and the organic semiconductor layer, and the organic semiconductor layer. And a source electrode and a drain electrode connected to each other. When a voltage is applied to the gate electrode, a current flow channel (channel) is formed at the interface between the organic semiconductor layer between the source electrode and the drain electrode and the adjacent layer. That is, the current flowing between the source electrode and the drain electrode is controlled according to the input voltage applied to the gate electrode.
 本発明のOTFTの好ましい構造を図面に基づいて説明する。各図面に示されるOTFTは、本発明の理解を容易にするための模式図であり、各部材のサイズないし相対的な大小関係等は説明の便宜上大小を変えている場合があり、実際の関係をそのまま示すものではない。また、本発明で規定する事項以外はこれらの図面に示された外形又は形状に限定されるものでもない。例えば、図1A及び図1Bにおいて、ゲート電極5は必ずしも基板6のすべてを覆っている必要はなく、基板6の中央部分に設けられた形態も、本発明のOTFTの形態として好ましい。
 図1A~図1Dは、各々、本発明のOTFTの代表的な好ましい構造を模式的に表す縦断面図である。図1A~図1Dはいずれも、有機半導体層1と、ゲート絶縁層2と、ソース電極3と、ドレイン電極4と、ゲート電極5と、基板6とを備えて構成される。
 また、図1Aは、ボトムゲート・ボトムコンタクト構造、図1Bは、ボトムゲート・トップコンタクト構造、図1Cはトップゲート・ボトムコンタクト構造、図1Dはトップゲート・トップコンタクト構造のOTFTを示している。
 本発明のOTFTには上記4つの形態のすべてが包含される。図示を省略するが、各OTFTの図面最上部(基板6に対して反対側)には、オーバーコート層が形成されている場合もある。
A preferred structure of the OTFT of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The OTFT shown in each drawing is a schematic diagram for facilitating the understanding of the present invention, and the size or relative size relationship of each member may be changed for convenience of explanation. Is not shown as it is. Moreover, it is not limited to the external shape or shape shown by these drawings except the matter prescribed | regulated by this invention. For example, in FIGS. 1A and 1B, the gate electrode 5 does not necessarily cover the entire substrate 6, and a form provided in the central portion of the substrate 6 is also preferable as a form of the OTFT of the present invention.
1A to 1D are longitudinal sectional views each schematically showing a typical preferable structure of an OTFT of the present invention. 1A to 1D each include an organic semiconductor layer 1, a gate insulating layer 2, a source electrode 3, a drain electrode 4, a gate electrode 5, and a substrate 6.
1A shows a bottom gate / bottom contact structure, FIG. 1B shows a bottom gate / top contact structure, FIG. 1C shows a top gate / bottom contact structure, and FIG. 1D shows a top gate / top contact structure OTFT.
The OTFT of the present invention includes all of the above four forms. Although not shown, an overcoat layer may be formed on the top of each OTFT in the drawing (the side opposite to the substrate 6).
 本発明のOTFTの特徴は、有機半導体層1が、有機半導体材料と、活性光線又は放射線の照射により酸アニオンを生じる構造部位を側鎖に含む繰り返し単位を有する樹脂(以下、単に「光酸発生樹脂」とも称する。)と、を含む有機半導体層前駆体層に対し、活性光線又は放射線を照射することにより形成される点にある。
 この有機半導体層1の具体的な形成方法としては、有機半導体材料と、光酸発生樹脂とを含む有機半導体層形成組成物により形成する方法が一例として挙げられる。この形成方法を用いて、例えば、図1Aに示すボトムゲート・ボトムコンタクト構造のOTFTを作製する場合には、まず上記の有機半導体層形成組成物を調製し、これを下層となるゲート絶縁層2、ソース電極3及びドレイン電極4上に塗設して有機半導体層前駆体層を形成する。その後、上記有機半導体層前駆体層に対して活性光線又は放射線を照射することにより、所定の有機半導体層を形成することができる。
 有機半導体層前駆体層において、結晶性の高い有機半導体材料と、光酸発生樹脂とは、互いに相分離して存在しているものと推測される。この有機半導体層前駆体層に対し活性光線又は放射線を照射すると、光酸発生樹脂がエネルギーを吸収して開裂し、主に、側鎖に酸アニオンを有する主鎖部分と、カチオン部分とに分解する。このとき、ドーパントである側鎖に酸アニオンを有する主鎖部分は、特許文献1に挙げるような低分子型光酸発生剤により形成される低分子型の酸アニオンと比較して分子量が大きく拡散性に乏しいため、有機半導体層内に有機半導体材料と相分離した状態で留まるものと考えられる。
 この構成により、本発明の有機薄膜トランジスタは、ドーパントのゲート絶縁層への拡散によって生じる絶縁性能の低下が抑制されているため、ON/OFF比に優れたものとなる。また、ドーパントである側鎖に酸アニオンを有する主鎖部分と有機半導体材料の結晶とが相分離して存在するため、拡散性に富む低分子型光酸発生剤を用いた場合と比較して有機半導体材料の結晶性を損傷することが少なく、キャリア移動度にも優れたものとなる。
The feature of the OTFT of the present invention is that the organic semiconductor layer 1 is a resin (hereinafter simply referred to as “photoacid generation”) having an organic semiconductor material and a repeating unit containing a structural site that generates an acid anion upon irradiation with actinic rays or radiation. It is also formed by irradiating an actinic ray or radiation to an organic semiconductor layer precursor layer containing a resin.
As a specific method for forming the organic semiconductor layer 1, a method of forming the organic semiconductor layer 1 using an organic semiconductor layer-forming composition containing an organic semiconductor material and a photoacid generating resin can be cited as an example. For example, when the OTFT having the bottom gate / bottom contact structure shown in FIG. 1A is manufactured by using this forming method, the above-mentioned organic semiconductor layer forming composition is first prepared, and this is used as the lower gate insulating layer 2. The organic semiconductor layer precursor layer is formed by coating on the source electrode 3 and the drain electrode 4. Then, a predetermined organic semiconductor layer can be formed by irradiating the organic semiconductor layer precursor layer with actinic rays or radiation.
In the organic semiconductor layer precursor layer, it is presumed that the organic semiconductor material having high crystallinity and the photoacid-generating resin are present in phase separation from each other. When this organic semiconductor layer precursor layer is irradiated with actinic rays or radiation, the photoacid-generating resin absorbs energy and cleaves, and mainly decomposes into a main chain portion having an acid anion in the side chain and a cation portion. To do. At this time, the main chain portion having an acid anion in the side chain as a dopant has a large molecular weight compared with a low molecular acid anion formed by a low molecular photoacid generator as described in Patent Document 1. It is considered that it remains in a state separated from the organic semiconductor material in the organic semiconductor layer because of its poor property.
With this configuration, the organic thin film transistor of the present invention has an excellent ON / OFF ratio because a decrease in insulating performance caused by diffusion of the dopant into the gate insulating layer is suppressed. In addition, since the main chain portion having an acid anion in the side chain which is a dopant and the crystal of the organic semiconductor material are phase-separated, compared with the case of using a low molecular photoacid generator rich in diffusibility There is little damage to the crystallinity of the organic semiconductor material, and the carrier mobility is excellent.
 一方、本発明の有機薄膜トランジスタにおいて、有機半導体層1は、上述のような有機半導体材料と光酸発生樹脂とを含む有機半導体層形成用組成物を用いる方法の他に、有機半導体材料を含む有機半導体材料層と光酸発生樹脂を含む光酸発生樹脂層との少なくとも2層構成として有機半導体層前駆体層を形成し、この有機半導体層前駆体層に対し活性光線又は放射線を照射することにより形成されてもよい。なお、2層構成にする場合、有機半導体材料層と光酸発生樹脂層との積層順は特に制限されないが、本発明の効果がより優れる点で、有機半導体材料層がゲート絶縁層側に配置され、光発生樹脂層がゲート絶縁層から離れた位置にあることが好ましい。
 具体的には、図1Aに示すボトムゲート・ボトムコンタクト構造を参照して説明すると、下層となるゲート絶縁層2、ソース電極3及びドレイン電極4上に、有機半導体材料層を形成した後、有機半導体材料層の表面の全部又はその一部に光酸発生樹脂層を積層して有機半導体層前駆体層を形成し、この有機半導体層前駆体層に対して活性光線又は放射線を照射する。
On the other hand, in the organic thin film transistor of the present invention, the organic semiconductor layer 1 includes an organic semiconductor material containing an organic semiconductor material in addition to the method using the organic semiconductor layer forming composition containing the organic semiconductor material and the photoacid generating resin as described above. By forming an organic semiconductor layer precursor layer as at least two layers of a semiconductor material layer and a photoacid generating resin layer containing a photoacid generating resin, and irradiating the organic semiconductor layer precursor layer with actinic rays or radiation It may be formed. In the case of a two-layer structure, the stacking order of the organic semiconductor material layer and the photoacid generating resin layer is not particularly limited, but the organic semiconductor material layer is disposed on the gate insulating layer side in that the effect of the present invention is more excellent. In addition, it is preferable that the photogenerating resin layer is located away from the gate insulating layer.
Specifically, referring to the bottom gate / bottom contact structure shown in FIG. 1A, an organic semiconductor material layer is formed on the lower gate insulating layer 2, the source electrode 3, and the drain electrode 4, and then the organic semiconductor material layer is formed. An organic semiconductor layer precursor layer is formed by laminating a photoacid-generating resin layer on all or part of the surface of the semiconductor material layer, and the organic semiconductor layer precursor layer is irradiated with actinic rays or radiation.
 上述したいずれの態様においても、光(活性光線又は放射線)照射後の有機半導体層中では、有機半導体材料と、光酸発生樹脂が開裂することで発生したドーパントとが相分離して存在し、これにより有機薄膜トランジスタは、キャリア移動度及び絶縁信頼性に優れたものとなる。 In any of the above-described aspects, in the organic semiconductor layer after irradiation with light (active light or radiation), the organic semiconductor material and the dopant generated by the cleavage of the photoacid-generating resin are present in phase separation, As a result, the organic thin film transistor is excellent in carrier mobility and insulation reliability.

 ソース電極及びドレイン電極は、それぞれ、上記ゲート電極の形成方法と同様の方法により形成することができる。 The source electrode and the drain electrode can be formed by a method similar to the method for forming the gate electrode, respectively.
 上記フォトリソグラフィー法としては、リフトオフ法又はエッチング法を採用できる。
 特に、ゲート絶縁層がエッチング液又は剥離液に対する耐性に優れていることから、ソース電極及びドレイン電極はエッチング法でも好適に形成することができる。エッチング法は、導電性材料を成膜した後に不要部分をエッチングにより除去する方法である。エッチング法によりパターニングすると、レジスト除去時に下地に残った導電性材料の剥がれ、レジスト残渣又は除去された導電性材料等の下地への再付着を防止でき、電極エッジ部の形状に優れる。この点で、リフトオフ法よりも好ましい。
As the photolithography method, a lift-off method or an etching method can be employed.
In particular, since the gate insulating layer is excellent in resistance to an etching solution or a stripping solution, the source electrode and the drain electrode can be preferably formed by an etching method. The etching method is a method of removing unnecessary portions by etching after forming a conductive material. When patterning is performed by an etching method, the conductive material remaining on the base when the resist is removed can be prevented, and the resist residue or the removed conductive material can be prevented from reattaching to the base, so that the shape of the electrode edge portion is excellent. This is preferable to the lift-off method.
 リフトオフ法は、下地の一部にレジストを塗布し、この上に導電性材料を成膜し、レジスト等を溶媒により溶出又は剥離等することにより、レジスト上の導電性材料ごと除去して、レジストが塗布されていなかった部分にのみ導電性材料の膜を形成する方法である。 In the lift-off method, a resist is applied to a part of the base, a conductive material is formed thereon, and the resist is removed together with the solvent by elution or peeling with a solvent. This is a method of forming a film of a conductive material only on a portion where no is applied.
 ソース電極及びドレイン電極の厚みは、任意であるが、それぞれ、1nm以上が好ましく、10nm以上が特に好ましい。また、500nm以下が好ましく、300nm以下が特に好ましい。
 ソース電極とドレイン電極との間の間隔(チャネル長)は、任意であるが、500μm以下が好ましく、200μm以下が特に好ましい。また、チャネル幅は、5000μm以下が好ましく、1000μm以下が特に好ましい。
Although the thickness of a source electrode and a drain electrode is arbitrary, 1 nm or more is preferable respectively and 10 nm or more is especially preferable. Moreover, 500 nm or less is preferable and 300 nm or less is especially preferable.
The interval (channel length) between the source electrode and the drain electrode is arbitrary, but is preferably 500 μm or less, and particularly preferably 200 μm or less. The channel width is preferably 5000 μm or less, and particularly preferably 1000 μm or less.

<Manufacture of organic thin film transistor I>
Using the organic semiconductor layer forming compositions of Examples and Comparative Examples obtained as described above, the organic thin film transistor having the bottom gate / bottom contact structure shown in FIG. Mobility and insulation reliability were evaluated.
 基板6として厚さ1mmのドープシリコン基板(ゲート電極5を兼ねる)を用い、その上にゲート絶縁層2を形成した。
 ゲート絶縁層2は以下のように形成した。
 ポリ(4-ビニルフェノール)(日本曹達社製、商品名:VP-8000、Mn11000、分散度1.1)を6.3gと、架橋剤として2,2-ビス(3,5-ジヒドロキシメチル-4-ヒドロキシ)プロパン2.7gとを、91gの1-ブタノール/エタノール=1/1の混合溶媒に室温で溶解した。この溶解液をφ0.2μmのPTFE製メンブランフィルタでろ過した。得られたろ液に酸触媒としてジフェニルヨードニウムヘキサフルオロホスフェート塩0.18gを加え、基板6上に塗布し、乾燥して成膜した。その後、100℃に加熱して架橋構造を形成させ、厚さ0.7μmのゲート絶縁層2を形成した。

Next, the organic semiconductor layer precursor layer obtained was irradiated with light having a wavelength of 254 to 365 nm (irradiation amount 30 mW / cm 2 ) for 10 seconds using a high pressure UV lamp (manufactured by USHIO INC.) To generate photoacid The organic semiconductor layer was formed by decomposing the resin to produce a main chain component having an acid anion in the side chain in the system.
Thus, an organic semiconductor layer 1 having a thickness of 150 nm was formed, and organic thin film transistors (bottom gate / bottom contact type) of Examples 1 to 20 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3 were obtained.

[Production and Evaluation of Organic Thin Film Transistor II (Examples 21 to 28)]
In the production of the organic thin film transistor I, the same method except that the organic semiconductor layer precursor layer is formed as a two-layer structure of an organic semiconductor material layer containing an organic semiconductor material and a photoacid generating resin layer containing a photoacid generating resin. Thus, an organic thin film transistor II was prepared with the formulation shown in Table 1. Details are as follows.
First, a composition for forming an organic semiconductor material layer (organic semiconductor) obtained by dissolving an organic semiconductor material represented by Compound No. N7 in Table 1 below in 1 mL of toluene so as to cover the gate insulating layer 2, the source electrode 3, and the drain electrode 4. The organic semiconductor material concentration in the composition for forming a material layer: 0.5 mass%) was applied by spin coating (rotation speed: 1000 rpm) at 25 ° C. Thereafter, an organic semiconductor material layer having a thickness of 150 nm was formed by heating on a hot plate at 150 ° C. for 30 minutes.
Next, on each organic semiconductor material layer formed as described above, each photoacid-generating resin layer forming composition (each light having a photoacid-generating resin (A-1 to 8) shown in Table 1 below dissolved in 1 mL of toluene) The photoacid generating resin concentration in the acid generating resin layer forming composition: 0.1% by mass) was applied at 25 ° C. by spin coating (rotation speed: 1000 rpm). Then, it heated at 150 degreeC on the hotplate for 30 minutes, and formed the photo-acid generating resin layer into a film. Thus, an organic semiconductor layer precursor layer having a thickness of 150 nm was formed to produce an OTFT.
Next, the organic semiconductor layer precursor layer obtained was irradiated with light having a wavelength of 254 to 365 nm (irradiation amount 30 mW / cm 2 ) for 10 seconds using a high pressure UV lamp (manufactured by USHIO INC.) To generate photoacid The organic semiconductor layer 1 was formed by decomposing the resin to produce a main chain component having an acid anion in the side chain in the system.
Thus, an organic semiconductor layer 1 having a thickness of 150 nm was formed, and organic thin film transistors (bottom gate / bottom contact type) of Examples 21 to 28 were obtained.
 得られた各有機薄膜トランジスタについて、上述の有機薄膜トランジスタIと同様の方法によりキャリア移動度μとon/off比を評価することでその性能を調べた。結果を表1に示す。
 尚、表1において、光酸発生樹脂のpKaとは、「光酸発生樹脂の酸アニオンを生じる構造部位を有するユニット(一般式(III)~(V)で表される繰り返し単位の単量体)のpKa」を意味する。また、10^6は、「10の6乗」(10)を意図する。

Figure JPOXMLDOC01-appb-T000056
 表1に示す結果から、以下のことが分かる。
 実施例1~28の有機薄膜トランジスタは、いずれも、光酸発生樹脂を用いた有機半導体層形成用組成物を用いて作製しているため、光酸発生樹脂の光照射により解離した主鎖の酸成分が絶縁層へ拡散せず、これによりon/off比が優れていた。また、有機半導体層形成用組成物により形成される有機半導体層は、有機半導体材料による結晶構造が形成された後に光照射により系内で光酸発生樹脂を分解する構成をとり、また、分解によって生じた側鎖に酸アニオンを有する主鎖部分が系内で有機半導体材料の結晶構造と相分離して存在するため、すなわち、結晶性を乱さず、且つ、均一にドープされるため、キャリア移動度μにも優れていた。
 特に、光酸発生樹脂の中でも、対カチオンとしてスルホニウム塩又はヨードニウム塩を有する化合物を用いた場合には、より優れたキャリア移動度μが得られることが分かった。
 また、光酸発生樹脂として、側鎖の酸アニオン発生構造部位に連結するX~Xの位置に電子吸引性基を導入してpKaを-10以下としたA-2,3,4を用いた場合には、より優れたキャリア移動度μが得られることが分かった。
 また、実施例1、17~20との比較により、有機半導体材料に対する光酸発生樹脂の添加量を適切なものとすることで(有機半導体材料100質量部に対して、0.001~30質量部であるのが好ましく、0.01~20質量部であるのがより好ましく、0.1~5質量部であるのがさらに好ましい。)、キャリア移動度μをさらに高めることができた。
From the results shown in Table 1, the following can be understood.
Since the organic thin film transistors of Examples 1 to 28 are all produced using a composition for forming an organic semiconductor layer using a photoacid generating resin, the main chain acid dissociated by light irradiation of the photoacid generating resin is used. The component did not diffuse into the insulating layer, which resulted in an excellent on / off ratio. In addition, the organic semiconductor layer formed by the composition for forming an organic semiconductor layer has a structure in which the photoacid-generating resin is decomposed in the system by light irradiation after the crystal structure is formed by the organic semiconductor material. The main chain portion having an acid anion in the generated side chain exists in the system in phase separation from the crystal structure of the organic semiconductor material, that is, it does not disturb the crystallinity and is uniformly doped. The degree μ was also excellent.
In particular, it has been found that when a compound having a sulfonium salt or an iodonium salt as a counter cation is used among the photoacid generating resins, a better carrier mobility μ can be obtained.
Further, as a photoacid generating resin, A-2, 3, and 4 having pKa of −10 or less by introducing an electron withdrawing group into the position of X 1 to X 3 linked to the side chain acid anion generating structure site. When used, it was found that a better carrier mobility μ can be obtained.
Further, by comparing the amount of the photoacid-generating resin with respect to the organic semiconductor material by comparison with Examples 1 and 17 to 20 (0.001 to 30 mass relative to 100 mass parts of the organic semiconductor material). The carrier mobility μ can be further increased. The carrier mobility μ is preferably 0.01 to 20 parts by weight, more preferably 0.1 to 5 parts by weight.
 これに対して、光酸発生樹脂を添加しない比較例1は、キャリア移動度μが十分ではなかった。一方、引用文献1に記載されるような低分子タイプの光酸発生剤を用いた比較例2、3においては、いずれも、キャリア移動度μ及びon/off比が十分ではなかった。 In contrast, Comparative Example 1 in which no photoacid-generating resin was added did not have sufficient carrier mobility μ. On the other hand, in Comparative Examples 2 and 3 using the low molecular type photoacid generator as described in the cited document 1, the carrier mobility μ and the on / off ratio were not sufficient.
