Embodiment 1 to 18

[0071] Chemical radioactivity was prepared by selecting a polymer, an acid generator, a basic compound, and a surfactant as a base resin according to the formulation shown in Table 1, dissolving them in an organic solvent, and filtering through a membrane with a pore size of 0.05 μm. Large positive photoresist composition. The chemically amplified positive photoresist composition was spin-coated on an 8-inch silicon wafer (Mark-8, Tokyo Electron Ltd.), and pre-baked at 150 ° C for 180 seconds to remove the solvent, forming a film thickness of 9 μm chemically amplified positive photoresist film. The results of the crack resistance test are shown in Table 2.

[0072] A film thickness of 7.5 μm was formed by dispensing the chemically amplified positive photoresist composition onto an 8-inch silicon wafer (Mark-8, Tokyo Electron Ltd.) and prebaking at 150 °C for 180 s to remove the solvent photoresist film. Using a KrF stepper FPA 3000-EX5 (Canon Inc.), the photoresist film was...

[0077] Chemicals were prepared by selecting polymers as base resins, acid generators, basic compounds, and surfactants according to the formulation shown in Table 1, dissolving them in organic solvents, and filtering through membranes with a pore size of 0.05 μm. Amplified positive photoresist composition. The viscosity of the composition was adjusted to 98 mPa·s at 25°C. The chemically amplified positive photoresist composition was spin-coated on an 8-inch silicon wafer (Mark-8, Tokyo Electron Ltd.) at 1000 rpm, and prebaked at 150 °C for 180 seconds to remove the solvent and form a chemical Amplified positive photoresist film. The film thickness was measured by using a spectroscopic film thickness measurement system VM-1210 (Screen Semiconductor Solutions Co., Ltd.). The results are shown in Table 3.

[0079] The photoresist was formed by dispensing the chemically amplified positive photoresist composition onto an 8-inch silicon wafer (Mark-8, Tokyo Electron Ltd.) and prebaking at 150 °C for 180 s to remove the solvent membrane.

[0080] The film thickness was measured by using VM-1210 (Screen Semiconductor Solutions Co., Ltd.). Using a KrF stepper FPA 3000-EX5 (Canon Inc.), a 7.5 μm photoresist film was exposed to KrF rays through a reticle. The exposed silicon wafer was left to stand in a clean room (25° C., 50% RH) for 1 minute and 30 minutes. The 7.5 μm photoresist film was baked (PEB) at 110° C. for 180 seconds and developed with 2.38 wt % tetramethylammonium hydroxide in water (AZ300 MIF developer). The observation of the pattern profile and the measurement of the line and space dimensions of the pattern were carried out under SEM.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a photosensitive resin composition suitable for forming a thick film, which comprises (A) an alkali-soluble resin, (B) at least one plasticizer selected from a group consisting of an alkali- soluble vinyl resin and an acid-dissociable group containing vinyl resin, (C) an acid generator, and (D) an organic solvent.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a chemically amplified positive photoresist composition, more particularly, suitable for forming thick films suitable for the manufacture of semiconductor devices, flat panel displays (FPD), circuit boards and magnetic heads, especially in the formation of magnetic heads Magnetic poles and protruding electrodes called "bumps" are used as connection terminals in large scale integration (LSI). Background technique [0002] Photolithography has been used to form micro components or perform fine processing in various fields, for example, for producing semiconductor integrated circuits such as LSIs, displays for FPDs, circuit boards for thermal heads, and the like. In fields requiring thick film processing such as magnetic heads and bumps, it is necessary to form resist patterns with high aspect ratios and vertical walls. In addition, the photoresist film is used as a mask for ion beams when processing silicon substrates fo...
