Photoelectric conversion film, photoelectric conversion element, imaging element, method of applying electric field thereto and electric field-applied element

摘要

An imaging element having a photoelectric conversion film which has a laminated structure comprising a p-type semiconductor layer and an n-type semiconductor layer between a pair of electrodes, wherein at least one of the p-type semiconductor and the n-type semiconductor contains an organic compound with controlled orientation; a photoelectric conversion film having at least one organic dye compound, wherein the organic dye compound forms a J aggregate, or the angle between the spectral absorption transition dipolar moment of the organic dye compound and the photoelectric conversion film plane is 40° or less, a photoelectric conversion element and an imaging element; and a method of applying an electric field thereto, and an imaging element which comprises a photoelectric conversion film (a photosensitive layer) having a bulk heterojunction layer as an intermediate layer, or a photoelectric conversion film having two or more repeating structure units of a pn junction layer comprising a p-type semiconductor layer and an n-type semiconductor layer between a pair of electrodes.
