Patent number: 8426107Abstract: Disclosed is a positive-type photosensitive composition which can form a metal compound film pattern at high resolution and with less affection by organic residues. The positive-type photosensitive composition comprises: a metal complex component (A) which can form a metal compound film when applied and subsequently fired; and a photosensitizing agent (B). In the composition, a ligand in the component (A) is preferably a multidentate ligand having an aromatic compound as its skeleton. According to this construction, even a composition containing substantially no photosensitive resin can impart photosensitivity and a metal compound film pattern can be formed readily.Type: GrantFiled: May 13, 2009Date of Patent: April 23, 2013Assignees: Tokyo Ohka Kogyo Co., Ltd., Central Japan Railway CompanyInventors: Motoki Takahashi, Toshiyuki Ogata, Christopher Cordonier, Akimasa Nakamura, Tetsuya Shichi, Teruhiro Uematsu
