Abstract

A method for patterning a chemically sensitive organic thin film such as pentacene comprising (a) forming a protective material layer on the surface of a chemically sensitive organic thin film, said protective material layer being chemically resistant; (b) forming a photoresist on an exposed surface of said protective material layer; (c) patterning the photoresist; and (d) transferring the pattern to the protective material layer and the chemically sensitive organic thin film by dry etching.
