Abstract: A developing solution is disclosed with which it is possible to develop a photoresist disposed on a substrate including a conductive polymer. Also disclosed is a method for forming a resist pattern using the developing solution. The developing solution contains one or more acids and/or salts thereof, the acids being selected from inorganic acids, amino acids having an isoelectric point less than 7, and carboxylic acids having two or more carboxy groups. Use of this developing solution hence inhibits the phenomenon in which a substrate including a conductive polymer suffers an increase in surface resistivity due to a developing solution, and makes it possible to obtain a fine resist pattern.
