A method includes preparing a mixture having an organic solvent, a fluorine-containing polymer, at least one organic base, and a crosslinker component; depositing the mixture over a substrate to form a first layer; and crosslinking the first layer by light treatment to form a crosslinked gate dielectric layer, such that the fluorine-containing polymer is at least one of homopolymers of vinylidene fluoride or copolymers of vinylidene fluoride with fluorine-containing ethylenic monomers. A transistor includes a crosslinked gate dielectric layer disposed over a substrate; an organic semiconductor layer disposed over the substrate and being in direct contact with the crosslinked gate dielectric layer; a source and a drain in contact with the organic semiconductor layer and defining the ends of a channel through the organic semiconductor layer; and a gate superposed with the channel, such that the crosslinked gate dielectric layer separates the gate from the organic semiconductor layer.

The present invention relates to a photosensitive resin composition and to a cured film formed therefrom, wherein the photosensitive resin composition can improve the sensitivity by using an alcoholic solvent, along with a siloxane polymer and a quinone diazide compound conventionally used, which enhances the solubility in a developer through an interaction between the alcohol and the diazonaphthoquinone (DNQ) group in the quinone diazide compound, as well as can form a cure film having excellent film retention rate even after post-bake.

The invention pertains to a composition based on a fluoroelastomer comprising nitrile or carboxylate-type cure sites and including a curing agent and a Br-containing marker having reactivity towards the said cure-sites, which can be cured so as to deliver cured parts maintaining chemically bound bromine atoms; this material, when submitted to wear/damage would hence release Br-containing contaminants, which can easily spotted via notably an on-line mass spectrometer, so as to monitor and anticipate critical failures of sealing materials based there upon.
