Patent ID: 8133546

Claim:
A method for producing an organic thin film for forming an organic thin film on a substrate surface, comprising at least a step (B) of allowing the substrate to contact with an organic solvent solution comprising a metal surfactant having at least one or more hydrolysable group or hydroxyl group, and a catalyst that can interact with the metal surfactant, wherein the method further comprises after the step B, a step (E1) of heating the substrate which has been in contact with the organic solvent solution at 100° C. to 150° C.; a step (E2) of immersing the substrate which has been in contact with the organic solvent solution in a warm water of 40° C. or more and less than the boiling point; or a step (E3) of allowing the substrate which has been in contact with the organic solvent solution to contact with a moisture vapor of 60° C. to 150° C.
