Photosensitive Resin Composition and Photosensitive Element Using the Same

This invention relates to a photosensitive resin composition and a photosensitive element using the same which are excellent in light-transmitting properties and solubility, can be made into a final cured film having excellent heat resistance, adhesive properties, flexibility, electrical properties and mechanical properties by heat treatment, can be formed into a thick film, have a high photosensitivity also when used in the form of a thick film, and are suitable for use in interlaminar insulating films or surface protective films of multilayer circuit board or semiconductor element, pastes for color filter, etc.

Heat-resistant polymers represented by polyimides are excellent in heat resistance, electrical properties and mechanical properties and hence have heretofore been used in interlaminar insulating films or surface protective films (e.g. .alpha.-ray shielding film, passivation film, buffer coat film, etc.) in semiconductor element. They have been widely used also in the field of circuit boards, for example, in resists for forming a circuit pattern on a substrate, or interlaminar insulating films of multilayer circuit board.

In the semiconductor industry, inorganic materials have heretofore been used in interlaminar insulating films and surface protective films, but in recent years, organic materials excellent in heat resistance, such as polyimides, have been used by taking advantage of their characteristics.

A pattern of a surface protective film or interlaminar insulating film of a semiconductor element or multilayer circuit board is formed through troublesome and various steps such as formation of a resist material into a film on the surface of a substrate, exposure of a predetermined portion to light, removal of an unnecessary portion by etching and the like, cleaning of the substrate surface, etc. Therefore, it is desirable to develope a heat-resistant photosensitive material which is such that after forming a pattern by exposure and development, a resist material in a necessary portion can be remained and used as it is as an insulating material.

As such a material, there have been proposed, for example, heat-resistant photosensitive materials obtained by using a photosensitive polyimide, a cyclized polybutadiene or the like as a base polymer. Photosensitive polyimides are particularly noted because of, for example, their excellent heat resistance and easy removal of their impurities.

As such a polyimide, for example, Japanese Patent Publication No. 49-17374 has proposed a system comprising a polyimide precursor and a dichromate, at first. But although this material is advantageous in that it has a practical photosensitivity and a high film-forming ability, it is disadvantageous, for example, in that it is poor in storage stability and that chromium ions remain in polyimide. Therefore, it has not been put into practical use.

Japanese Patent Publication No. 55-100143 and Japanese Patent Appln. Kokai (Laid-Open) No. 60-100143 have proposed processes in which a photosensitive group is given by using an ester linkage or an isocyanate compound, respectively. But the material obtained by the former process has low adhesive properties to a substrate and hence tends to be peeled off, while the material obtained by the latter process has low light-transmitting properties and is difficult to form into a thick film.

This invention was made in consideration of such problems of prior art and provides a photosensitive resin composition and a photosensitive element using the same which are excellent in light-transmitting properties and solubility, can be made into a final cured film having excellent heat resistance, adhesive properties, flexibility, electrical properties and mechanical properties by heat treatment, can be formed into a thick film, and have a high sensitivity also when used in the form of a thick film.

The photosensitive resin composition of this invention can be formed into a coating film by coating the same on a base material such as glass substrate, silicon wafer, copper-clad laminate or the like by a means such as spin coating using a spinner, dipping, spraying, printing or the like, and then drying the coating.

The thickness of the coating film can be adjusted by properly choosing a coating means, the solid concentration and viscosity of a varnish of the photosensitive polymer composition of this invention, etc.

A coating film can be formed on a substrate to be coated, also by coating the photosensitive resin composition on a flexible base material, e.g. a polyester film, drying the same, thereby laminating the same on the substrate, optionally forming thereon a cover sheet of polyethylene or the like to produce a photosensitive element having a sandwich structure previously, and peeling off the cover sheet of the photosensitive element.

A cover sheet need not necessarily to be used.

When the coating film is irradiated with actinic rays through a mask having a desired pattern, polymerization occurs in the exposed portion, so that the exposed portion is greatly decreased in solubility as compared with the unexposed portion.

Although ultraviolet rays are usually used as the actinic rays, the same effect on the coating film as in the case of ultraviolet rays can be obtained by irradiating the coating film, if necessary, with ionizing radiation such as electron beams, radiation or the like.

When the coating film treated in the manner described above is treated with a suitable developing solution, the unexposed portion retaining a high solubility is developed and removed, while the exposed portion which has been decreased in solubility by the irradiation with actinic rays remains, whereby a desired resin pattern can be obtained.

As the developing solution, there can be used, for example, polar solvents such as N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, N-acetyl-2-pyrrolidone, N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, hexamethylphosphortriamide, dimethylimidazolidinone, N-benzyl-2-pyrrolidone, N-acetyl-.epsilon.-caprolactam, N,N-dimethylpropyleneurea, N,N-dimethylethyleneurea, .gamma.-butyrolactone, etc. These polar solvents can be used alone or as a mixed solution with common organic solvents such as methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, benzene, acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, cyclohexanone, cyclopentanone, toluene, xylene, methyl Cellosolve, ethyl acetate, methyl propionate, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane and the like, water, basic compounds, basic aqueous solutions, etc. Basic aqueous solutions alone or solutions prepared by mixing a basic aqueous solution with an alcohol can also be used as the developing solution.

The basic compounds include, for example, monoethanolamine, diethanolamine, triethanolamine, tetramethylammonium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, sodium phosphate, etc.

As the basic compounds, there can be used hydroxides, carbonates, hydrogencarbonates, silicates, phosphates, pyrophosphates, acetates, amines, etc. of alkali metals and quaternary ammonium.

Specific examples of these basic compounds are lithium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, ammonium hydroxide, trimethylbenzylammonium hydroxide, tetramethylammonium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate, sodium hydrogencarbonate, sodium silicate, sodium phosphate sodium pyrophosphate, sodium acetate, monoethanolamine, diethanolamine, triethanolamine, etc.

In preparing a basic aqueous solution of the basic compound, the using amount of the basic compound is usually preferably 0.0001 to 30 parts by weight, more preferably 0.05 to 5 parts by weight per 100 parts of water.

The alcohol includes, for example, methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, n-propanol, n-butanol, n-pentanol, n-hexanol, n-heptanol, n-octanol, etc.

Subsequently, the developing solution can be removed by rinsing the relief pattern formed by the development with a rinsing liquid.

As the rinsing liquid, there can be used non-solvents for poly(amic acid) which are highly miscible with the developing solution, for example, methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, benzene, toluene, xylene, methyl Cellosolve, water etc.

The thus obtained resin pattern of thick film can be converted to a semiconductor element having a high heat resistance, an interlaminar insulating film or surface-protective film in a multilayer circuit board or the like, a color filter, etc. by subsequent baking at 150.degree. to 400.degree. C, i.e., post cure, and then if necessary, exposure to actinic rays. Therefore, the photosensitive resin composition of this invention is very useful mainly in the field of the micro-fabrication described above.

This invention is explained below with reference to Examples and Comparative Examples, which are not by way of limitation but by way of illustration.

In a 200-ml four-necked flask equipped with a thermometer, a nitrogen gas inlet and a stirrer were placed 17.4 g (0.1 mole) of 2,4-tolylene diisocyanate, 100 ml of dried methyl ethyl ketone and 2 mg of dibutyltin dilaurate, and stirred at room temperature while introducing dried nitrogen gas.

Subsequently, 11.6 g (0.1 mole) of 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate was added and the resulting solution was stirred at room temperature for 8 hours, after which the methyl ethyl ketone was removed to obtain an isocyanato compound.

In .sup.1 H-NMR spectrum of the product, there were observed a signal due to --OCH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 O-- at 4.35 ppm and a signal due to --CH.dbd.CH.sub.2 at 5.7-6.4 ppm.

In IR spectrum of the product, an absorption due to amide group carbonyl stretching vibration was observed at 1650 cm.sup.-1. The isocyanato compound obtained was named TD-HEA.

In a 1000-ml flask equipped with a thermometer and a stirrer were placed 133.2 g of 2,2-bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane dianhdyride (mfd. by Central Glass Co., Ltd.) and 450 g of N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone as solvent, and stirred at room temperature.

Then, 60.1 g of 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl ether (mfd. by Mitsui Toatsu Chemicals, Inc.) was added to the resulting solution, and the resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 4 hours to obtain a viscous polymer solution.

Subsequently, 43.5 g of the isocyanato compounds TD-HEA obtained in Referential Example was added to the polymer solution and stirred for 8 hours at room temperature while shutting out the light. Carbon dioxide was generated during the reaction. The photosensitive adduct solution was named PI-1.

In the same manner as in Synthetic Example 1, polymers PI-2 to PI-42 having the repeating unit of the general formula (1) were obtained by using tetracarboxylic acid dianhydride(s), diamine(s) and an isocyanato compound having at least one ethylenic unsaturated group, in the blending amounts shown in Table 1. Each of the polymers obtained in Synthetic Examples 27 to 38 was solidified by adding 80 ml of ethanol, followed by stirring for 3 hours and slow pouring into 8 liters of water.

To a mixture of 20.7 g (0.04 mole) of 2,2-bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane dianhydride, 25.6 g (0.06 mole) of 1,3-bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl)-1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane dianhydride and 32.2 g (0.1 mole) of 3,3',4,4'-benzophenonetetracarboxylic dianhydride were added 400 ml of N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone and 520 g (0.4 mole) of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate as hydroxy compound having at least one ethylenic unsaturated group, and stirred at room temperature for 12 hours. To the resulting solution was added dropwise 70 g of thionyl chloride with ice-cooling over a period of 1 hour, and stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. To the solution thus obtained was added 40.0 g (0.2 mole) of 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl ether, and stirred for 8 hours.

Subsequently, 80 ml of ethanol was added and then stirred for 3 hours. The resulting solution was slowly poured into 8 liters of water, upon which a polymer was precipitated as a thread-like solid. This polymer was named PI-43.

In the same manner as in Synthetic Example 43, polymers PI-44 to PI-54 were obtained by using tetracarboxylic acid dianhydride(s), diamine(s) and a hydroxy compound having at least one ethylenic unsaturated group, according to each recipe shown in Table 1.

A photoinitiator of (B) and if necessary, a polymerizable unsaturated compound were added to each polymer having the repeating unit of the general formula (1) or solution thereof obtained in Synthetic Examples 1 to 54, and stirred and mixed therewith. Thus, there were obtained homogeneous solutions of photosensitive resin composition which were used in Examples 1 to 114.

Each of these solutions was passed through a filter, dropped on a silicon wafer, and spin coated thereon at a revolution rate of 2,000 r.p.m. for 30 minutes.

The coating film thus obtained was dried at 80.degree. C. for 10 minutes and then its thickness was measured.

Next, the surface of the coating film was covered with a pattern mask and exposed to light from a ultra-high pressure mercury lamp (8 mW/cm.sup.2) for 70 seconds.

The coating film was then developed with a mixture of equal amounts of N,N-dimethylacetamide and tetrahydrofuran for 50 seconds by means of a spray type developing machine, rinsed with isopropanol for 5 seconds to leave the portion irradiated by the ultra-high pressure mercury lamp, and dried by nitrogen spraying to obtain a relief pattern.

The cured state of the relief pattern was evaluated by calculating the yield of residual film thickness according to the equation: ##EQU1##

Subsequently, the coating film was heated under nitrogen at 100.degree. C. for 30 minutes, at 200.degree. C. for 30 minutes, and then at 350.degree. C. for 30 minutes to obtain a relief pattern of polyimide. The results obtained are shown in Table 2.

Each solution of photosensitive resin composition obtained in Examples 1 to 107 was coated on a glass substrate, dried, and then heated at 350.degree. C. for 1 hour. The film thus obtained was peeled from the glass substrate and film characteristics after curing were evaluated by the methods described below. The results obtained are shown in Table 2.

Measured by making the aforesaid film (thickness: 30 .mu.m) into test pieces having a width of about 1 cm and a length of about 10 cm, and measuring (10 mm/min) S-S curve for five of the test pieces by means of a tensile tester.

Measured in the air at a heating rate of 10.degree. C./min by means of a differential thermobalance by using 10 mg of the aforesaid film.

In addition, each solution of photosensitive resin composition was spin coated on a silicon wafer, formed into a cured film, and subjected to adhesive properties evaluation by the so-called cross-cut test. The cross-cut test comprises cutting the cured film with a cutter knife so as to form 100 squares (1 mm.sup..quadrature. ; each 1 mm.sup.2), peeling off them by use of the cellophane adhesive tape prescribed in JIS K5400, and expressing the adhesive properties in terms of the number of squares peeled off per the 100 squares. The adhesive properties evaluation was carried out by counting the number of squares peeled off in the cross-cut test after treating the cured film for 100 hours by a pressure cooker test (121.degree. C., 2 atmospheres). The results obtained are shown in Table 2.

In the same manner as in Synthetic Example 43 or Synthetic Example 1 for Comparative Synthetic Examples 55 and 56 or Comparative Synthetic Examples 57 to 59, respectively, polymers were obtained by using a tetracarboxylic acid dianhydride, a diamine, a solvent an isocyanato compound having at least one ethylenic unsaturated group and a hydroxy group having at least one ethylenic unsaturated group in blending amounts shown in Table 1. Each of the polymers thus obtained as PI-55 to PI-59, respectively, was solidified by adding 80 ml of ethanol, followed by stirring for 3 hours and slow pouring into 8 liters of water.

Each of the polymers obtained in Comparative Synthetic Examples was stirred together with each photoinitiator, each polymerizable unsaturated compound and the like listed in Table 3, whereby there were obtained homogeneous solutions of photosensitive resin composition which were used in Comparative Examples 1 to 17.

In the same manner as in Examples, each solution was coated on a silicon wafer to obtain a coating film.

Then, the surface of the coating film was covered with a pattern mask, and exposure, development, rinsing, etc. were conducted in the same manner as in Examples to obtain a relief pattern. The cured state of the relief was evaluated in terms of the yield of residual film thickness.

Subsequently, the coating film was heated under nitrogen at 100.degree. C. for 30 minutes, at 200.degree. C. for 30 minutes, and then at 350.degree. C. for 30 minutes, and film characteristics after curing were evaluated in the same manner as in Examples. The results obtained are shown in Table 3.

The photosensitive resin composition and the photosensitive element using the same of this invention have a high solubility, and can give a final cured film having both high heat resistance and high flexibility on the surface of a substrate. Moreover, they are good in light-trnasmitting properties and hence can be formed into a thick film. In addition, a thick film patterns obtained by using them have small dielectric constant and hence are useful as interlaminar insualting materials.
