Abstract: This composition for a hole collecting layer of an organic photoelectric conversion element contains: a charge-transporting substance comprising a polyaniline derivative represented by formula (1); a fluorine-based surfactant; and a solvent. The composition provides a thin film suitable for a hole collecting layer of an organic photoelectric conversion element, and is particularly suited for producing an inverse lamination type organic photoelectric conversion element. (In the formula, R1 to R6 each independently represent a hydrogen atom, etc., but one of R1 to R4 is a sulfonic acid group, one or more of the remaining R1 to R4 are a C1-20 alkoxy group, a C1-20 thioalkoxy group, a C1-20 alkyl group, a C2-20 alkenyl group, a C2-20 alkynyl group, a C1-20 haloalkyl group, a C6-20 aryl group, or a C7-20 aralkyl group, and m and n are numbers which satisfy 0?m?1, 0?n?1 and m+n=1).

Abstract: This method for producing a charge transporting thin film, wherein a charge transporting varnish containing a charge transporting substance, an electron accepting dopant substance containing at least one substance selected from among naphthalene sulfonates and benzene sulfonates, and an organic solvent is applied onto a substrate and is subsequently heated at 100-180° C. so that the organic solvent is evaporated therefrom, is capable of efficiently producing a charge transporting thin film which is able to be used as a hole collecting layer that enables the achievement of an organic photoelectric conversion element having high photoelectric conversion efficiency.

Abstract: A charge transport varnish containing a charge transport substance, an electron-accepting dopant substance, and an organic solvent, wherein the electron-accepting dopant substance contains one or more types selected from naphthalene disulfonic acid, naphthalene trisulfonic acid, and naphthalene tetrasulfonic acid. This charge transport varnish is suitable for forming a hole collection layer that can be used to produce an organic photoelectric conversion element which exhibits high photoelectric conversion efficiency.
