DENDRITIC POLYMER AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE ELEMENT EMPLOYING THE POLYMER

摘要

The invention provides a novel dendritic polymer serving as an organic semiconductor material which has high solubility in organic solvent; which is stable (i.e., is not prone to being affected by external inhibitors such as oxygen and water); and which exhibits isotropic, remarkably high carrier conductivity. The invention also provides electronic device elements requiring carrier conductivity and having remarkably high carrier conductivity through a simple production process.The dendritic polymer having a branching structure including a repeating unit having a branch portion, wherein the polymer has an aromatic amine moiety at an end thereof, and the repeating unit is formed of a phenylenevinylene moiety represented by formula (1): which is repeated once or a plurality of times.
