The invention relates to the use of an organic mesomeric compound as organic
dopant for doping an organic semiconducting matrix material for varying the electrical
properties thereof. In order to be able to handle organic semiconductors more easily
in the production process and to be able to produce electronic components with
doped organic semiconductors more reproducibly, it is proposed that as mesomeric
compound a quinone or quinone derivative or a 1,3,2-dioxaborine or a 1,3,2-dioxaborine
derivative may be used, which under like evaporation conditions has a lower volatility
than tetrafluorotetracyanoquinonedimethane (F4TCNQ).
