However, aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene, toluene, xylene, ethylbenzene, etc.) used as organic solvents may be reduced for environmental reasons (for example, the concentration of the organic solvent may be reduced to 50 ppm (parts per million) by mass or less, 10 ppm by mass or less, or 1 ppm by mass or less).

[0140] In the present invention, it is preferable to use a solvent with a low metal content, and the metal content of the solvent is preferably 10 mass ppb (parts per billion) or less. If necessary, a solvent with a mass ppt (parts per trillion) level may be used, and such a high-purity solvent is provided, for example, by Toyo Gosei Co., Ltd.

[0145] Furthermore, from the viewpoint of environmental regulations, the colored composition of the present invention preferably does not substantially contain environmentally restricted substances.

Examples of environmentally restricted substances include benzene; alkylbenzenes such as toluene and xylene; and halogenated benzenes such as chlorobenzene. These substances are registered as environmentally restricted substances under the REACH (Registration Evaluation Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals) regulations, the PRTR (Pollutant Release and Transfer Register) Act, and the VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) regulations, and their usage amounts and handling methods are strictly regulated. These compounds may be used as solvents when producing the components used in the colored composition of the present invention, and may be mixed into the colored composition as residual solvents. From the viewpoints of human safety and environmental considerations, it is preferable to reduce the content of these substances as much as possible. Examples of methods for reducing environmentally regulated substances include heating or reducing the pressure in the system to a temperature above the boiling point of the environmentally regulated substance, thereby distilling off the environmentally regulated substance from the system. When distilling off a small amount of an environmentally regulated substance, it is also useful to perform azeotropy with a solvent having a boiling point equivalent to that of the solvent in question in order to increase efficiency. When a radically polymerizable compound is contained, a polymerization inhibitor or the like may be added prior to distillation under reduced pressure to prevent intermolecular crosslinking due to the progression of a radical polymerization reaction during distillation under reduced pressure. These distillation methods can be used at any stage, including the stage of raw materials, the stage of a product obtained by reacting the raw materials (e.g., a resin solution or a polyfunctional monomer solution after polymerization), or the stage of a colored composition prepared by mixing these compounds.

The colored composition may be substantially free of perfluoroalkyl sulfonic acid and its salt, and perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acid and its salt. For example, by using a compound that can be a substitute for perfluoroalkyl sulfonic acid and its salt, and a compound that can be a substitute for perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acid and its salt, a coloring composition that is substantially free of perfluoroalkyl sulfonic acid and its salt, and perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acid and its salt may be selected. Examples of compounds that can be a substitute for regulated compounds include compounds that are exempt from regulation due to the difference in the number of carbon atoms in the perfluoroalkyl group. However, the above content does not preclude the use of perfluoroalkyl sulfonic acid and its salt, and perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acid and its salt. The coloring composition may contain perfluoroalkyl sulfonic acid and its salt, and perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acid and its salt within the maximum allowable range.

Examples of such containers include the container described in JP 2015-123351 A. Furthermore, it is also preferable to make the inner wall of the container out of glass or stainless steel in order to prevent metal elution from the inner wall, improve the storage stability of the composition, and prevent deterioration of the components.

[0179] <Method of producing colored composition> The colored composition of the present invention can be produced by mixing the above-mentioned components. When producing the colored composition, all components may be simultaneously dissolved and / or dispersed in a solvent to produce the colored composition, or, if necessary, each component may be prepared as two or more appropriate solutions or dispersions, which may be mixed at the time of use (at the time of application) to produce the colored composition.

[0180] The production of the coloring composition may also include a process for dispersing particles such as pigments. In the process for dispersing the pigment, mechanical forces used to disperse the pigment include compression, squeezing, impact, shear, and cavitation.

When grinding the pigment in a sand mill (bead mill), it is preferable to use small-diameter beads or increase the bead packing ratio to perform the process under conditions that increase grinding efficiency. After the grinding process, it is preferable to remove coarse particles by filtration, centrifugation, or the like. In addition, the process and disperser for dispersing pigments can be suitably described in "Dispersion Technology Encyclopedia," published by Joho Kiko Co., Ltd., July 15, 2005, or "Dispersion Technology and Industrial Applications Focused on Suspension (Solid / Liquid Dispersion Systems) - Comprehensive Data Collection," published by the Management Development Center Publishing Department, October 10, 1978, or in paragraph 0022 of JP 2015-157893 A.

When using a filter, different filters (e.g., a first filter and a second filter) may be combined. In this case, filtration with each filter may be performed only once or twice or more times. Filters with different pore sizes within the above-mentioned range may also be combined. Furthermore, filtration with the first filter may be performed on only the dispersion, and filtration with the second filter may be performed after mixing with other components.

[0186] <Color filter> Next, the color filter of the present invention will be described. The color filter of the present invention has the above-mentioned film of the present invention. Preferably, the film of the present invention is used as a yellow pixel of the color filter. The color filter of the present invention can be used in an optical sensor or a display device.

[0187] The color filter of the present invention preferably has colored pixels of other hues in addition to the pixels of the film of the present invention, such as blue pixels, red pixels, magenta pixels, and cyan pixels.

[0188] A preferred embodiment of the color filter of the present invention includes a magenta pixel, a cyan pixel, and a yellow pixel formed from the film of the present invention. Another preferred embodiment of the color filter of the present invention includes a red pixel, a blue pixel, and a yellow pixel formed from the film of the present invention, or a red pixel, a cyan pixel, and a yellow pixel formed from the film of the present invention.

[0189] The color filter may have a structure in which each color pixel is embedded in a space partitioned by partition walls, for example, in a grid pattern. In this case, the partition walls preferably have a lower refractive index than each color pixel. Alternatively, the partition walls may be formed as described in U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2018 / 0040656.

[0190] <Membrane manufacturing method> Next, a method for producing a film will be described. The film of the present invention can be produced via a step of applying the coloring composition of the present invention. The film production method preferably further includes a step of forming a pattern (pixels). Examples of methods for forming the pattern (pixels) include photolithography and dry etching, with photolithography being preferred.

[0191] The pattern formation by the photolithography method preferably includes the steps of forming a coloring composition layer on a support using the coloring composition of the present invention, exposing the coloring composition layer to light in a pattern, and developing and removing the unexposed areas of the coloring composition layer to form a pattern (pixels). If necessary, a step of baking the coloring composition layer (pre-baking step) and a step of baking the developed pattern (pixels) (post-baking step) may be provided.

[0192] In the step of forming a coloring composition layer, a coloring composition layer is formed on a support using the coloring composition of the present invention. The support is not particularly limited and can be appropriately selected depending on the application. Examples include a glass substrate and a silicon substrate, with a silicon substrate being preferred. The silicon substrate may also be formed with a charge-coupled device (CCD), a complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS), a transparent conductive film, or the like. A black matrix is ​​sometimes formed on the silicon substrate to isolate each pixel. The silicon substrate may also be provided with an underlayer to improve adhesion to an upper layer, prevent material diffusion, or flatten the substrate surface. The surface contact angle of the underlayer is preferably 20 to 70° when measured with diiodomethane. It is also preferably 30 to 80° when measured with water. A surface contact angle of the underlayer within the above range ensures good wetting of the coloring composition. The surface contact angle of the underlayer can be adjusted by, for example, adding a surfactant.

[0193] The coloring composition can be applied by any known method, including, for example, a dropping method (drop casting), a slit coating method, a spray method, a roll coating method, a rotary coating method (spin coating), a casting coating method, a slit and spin method, a pre-wetting method (for example, a method described in JP-A-2009-145395), various printing methods such as inkjet (for example, an on-demand method, a piezo method, a thermal method), ejection printing such as nozzle jet, flexographic printing, screen printing, gravure printing, reverse offset printing, and metal mask printing, a transfer method using a mold, and a nanoimprint method. The inkjet application method is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include the method described in "Expanding and Usable Inkjet - Infinite Possibilities Seen in Patents -", ​​published February 2005 by Sumibe Techno Research (particularly pages 115 to 133), and the methods described in JP 2003-262716 A, JP 2003-185831 A, JP 2003-261827 A, JP 2012-126830 A, JP 2006-169325 A, etc. Furthermore, for the application method of the coloring composition, the descriptions in WO 2017 / 030174 and WO 2017 / 018419 can be referred to, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

[0194] The colored composition layer formed on the support may be dried (prebaked). When a film is produced by a low-temperature process, prebaking may not be performed. When prebaking is performed, the prebaking temperature is preferably 150°C or lower, more preferably 120°C or lower, and even more preferably 110°C or lower. The lower limit can be, for example, 50°C or higher, or can also be 80°C or higher. The prebaking time is preferably 10 to 300 seconds, more preferably 40 to 250 seconds, and even more preferably 80 to 220 seconds. Prebaking can be performed using a hot plate, an oven, or the like.

[0195] Next, the coloring composition layer is exposed to light in a pattern (exposure step). For example, the coloring composition layer can be exposed to light in a pattern by using a stepper exposure machine, a scanner exposure machine, or the like, through a mask having a predetermined mask pattern. This allows the exposed portion to be cured.

[0196] Examples of radiation (light) that can be used for exposure include g-rays and i-rays. Light with a wavelength of 300 nm or less (preferably light with a wavelength of 180 to 300 nm) can also be used. Examples of light with a wavelength of 300 nm or less include KrF rays (wavelength 248 nm) and ArF rays (wavelength 193 nm), with KrF rays (wavelength 248 nm) being preferred. Long-wave light sources with wavelengths of 300 nm or more can also be used.

[0197] Furthermore, the exposure may be performed by continuous irradiation with light or by pulsed irradiation (pulse exposure), which is an exposure method in which light irradiation and pauses are repeated in short cycles (for example, milliseconds or less).

[0198] The irradiation amount (exposure amount) is, for example, 0.03 to 2.5 J / cm 2 is preferable, and 0.05 to 1.0 J / cm 2 The oxygen concentration during exposure can be appropriately selected. In addition to being performed in the atmosphere, exposure may be performed in a low-oxygen atmosphere with an oxygen concentration of 19% by volume or less (e.g., 15% by volume, 5% by volume, or substantially oxygen-free), or in a high-oxygen atmosphere with an oxygen concentration of more than 21% by volume (e.g., 22% by volume, 30% by volume, or 50% by volume). The exposure illuminance can be appropriately set, and is usually 1000 W / m 2 ~100,000W / m 2 (e.g., 5000W / m 2 , 15000W / m 2 , or 35,000 W / m 2 The oxygen concentration and exposure illuminance may be appropriately combined. For example, an oxygen concentration of 10% by volume and an illuminance of 10,000 W / m 2, oxygen concentration 35% by volume, illuminance 20000W / m 2 etc.

[0199] Next, the unexposed portions of the coloring composition layer are developed and removed to form a pattern (pixels). The unexposed portions of the coloring composition layer can be developed and removed using a developer. As a result, the coloring composition layer in the unexposed portions in the exposure step is dissolved into the developer, leaving only the photocured portions. The temperature of the developer is preferably, for example, 20 to 30°C. The development time is preferably 20 to 180 seconds. In addition, to improve residue removal, the process of shaking off the developer every 60 seconds and then supplying fresh developer may be repeated several times.

[0200] Examples of the developer include organic solvents and alkaline developers, with alkaline developers being preferred. The alkaline developer is preferably an alkaline aqueous solution (alkaline developer) prepared by diluting an alkaline agent with pure water. Examples of the alkaline agent include organic alkaline compounds such as ammonia, ethylamine, diethylamine, dimethylethanolamine, diglycolamine, diethanolamine, hydroxyamine, ethylenediamine, tetramethylammonium hydroxide, tetraethylammonium hydroxide, tetrapropylammonium hydroxide, tetrabutylammonium hydroxide, ethyltrimethylammonium hydroxide, benzyltrimethylammonium hydroxide, dimethylbis(2-hydroxyethyl)ammonium hydroxide, choline, pyrrole, piperidine, and 1,8-diazabicyclo-[5.4.0]-7-undecene, as well as inorganic alkaline compounds such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, sodium silicate, and sodium metasilicate. Alkaline agents with high molecular weights are preferred from an environmental and safety perspective. The concentration of the alkaline agent in the alkaline aqueous solution is preferably 0.001 to 10% by mass, more preferably 0.01 to 1% by mass. The developer may further contain a surfactant. For ease of transportation and storage, the developer may be prepared as a concentrated solution and then diluted to the required concentration before use. The dilution ratio is not particularly limited, but can be set, for example, in the range of 1.5 to 100 times. It is also preferable to wash (rinse) the developed layer with pure water after development. Rinsing is preferably performed by supplying a rinse solution to the developed colored composition layer while rotating the support on which the developed colored composition layer has been formed. It is also preferable to perform the rinse by moving the nozzle ejecting the rinse solution from the center of the support to the periphery of the support. In this case, the nozzle movement speed may be gradually reduced as the nozzle moves from the center to the periphery of the support. Rinsing in this manner can suppress in-plane variations in rinsing. A similar effect can be achieved by gradually reducing the rotation speed of the support while moving the nozzle from the center to the periphery of the support.

[0201] After development and drying, it is preferable to perform additional exposure treatment or heating treatment (post-baking). The additional exposure treatment or post-baking is a post-development curing treatment to ensure complete curing. The heating temperature in post-baking is, for example, preferably 100 to 240°C, more preferably 200 to 240°C. Post-baking can be performed continuously or batchwise using a heating means such as a hot plate, convection oven (hot air circulation dryer), or high-frequency heater to heat the developed film to the above conditions. When additional exposure treatment is performed, it is preferable that the light used for exposure has a wavelength of 400 nm or less. The additional exposure treatment may also be performed by the method described in Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2017-0122130.

[0202] Pattern formation by the dry etching method preferably includes the steps of forming a colored composition layer on a support using the colored composition of the present invention and curing the entire colored composition layer to form a cured layer; forming a photoresist layer on the cured layer; exposing the photoresist layer to light in a pattern and developing it to form a resist pattern; and dry etching the cured layer using an etching gas as a mask. In forming the photoresist layer, it is preferable to further perform a pre-baking treatment. In particular, the photoresist layer formation process preferably includes a post-exposure heat treatment and a post-development heat treatment (post-baking treatment). For details on pattern formation by the dry etching method, please refer to the description in paragraphs 0010 to 0067 of JP 2013-064993 A, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

Examples of the optical sensor include devices that perform various sensing and imaging using light such as visible light, ultraviolet light, and infrared light. Examples of the optical sensor include image sensors such as solid-state imaging devices. Examples of the solid-state imaging device include the following configurations.

[0204] The substrate includes a plurality of photodiodes constituting the light receiving area of ​​a solid-state imaging device (such as a CCD (charge-coupled device) image sensor or a CMOS (complementary metal-oxide semiconductor) image sensor) and transfer electrodes formed of polysilicon or the like. A light-shielding film is formed on the photodiodes and transfer electrodes, with only the light-receiving portions of the photodiodes being open. A device protection film formed of silicon nitride or the like is formed on the light-shielding film so as to cover the entire light-shielding film and the light-receiving portions of the photodiodes. A color filter is formed on the device protection film. Furthermore, a light-collecting means (e.g., a microlens, etc.; the same applies hereinafter) may be formed on the device protection film below the color filter (on the side closer to the substrate), or on the color filter. The pixels of the color filter may be embedded in spaces partitioned by partitions, for example, in a grid pattern. In this case, the refractive index of the partitions is preferably lower than that of the pixels. Examples of imaging devices having such a structure include devices described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2012-227478, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2014-179577, International Publication No. 2018 / 043654, and US Patent Application Publication No. 2018 / 0040656.

[0205] Devices equipped with optical sensors can be used in digital cameras, electronic devices with imaging functions (such as mobile phones), as well as in-vehicle cameras and surveillance cameras.

[0206] <Display device> The display device of the present invention has the above-described film of the present invention. Examples of the display device include liquid crystal display devices and organic electroluminescence display devices. Definitions of display devices and details of each display device are described, for example, in "Electronic Display Devices" (written by Akio Sasaki, published by Kogyo Chosakai Co., Ltd. in 1990) and "Display Devices" (written by Nobuaki Ibuki, published by Sangyo Tosho Co., Ltd. in 1989). Liquid crystal display devices are described, for example, in "Next Generation Liquid Crystal Display Technology" (edited by Tatsuo Uchida, published by Kogyo Chosakai Co., Ltd. in 1994).

The spectrum of white light emitted by the organic EL element preferably has strong maximum emission peaks in the blue region (430-485 nm), green region (530-580 nm), and yellow region (580-620 nm). In addition to these emission peaks, an organic EL element that also has a maximum emission peak in the red region (650-700 nm) is more preferred.

[0208] The organic electroluminescence display device may also have a lens on the color filter. The lens may have various shapes derived from optical system design, such as a convex shape or a concave shape. For example, a concave shape (concave lens) can easily improve the light collection ability. The lens may be in direct contact with the color filter, or another layer such as an adhesion layer or a planarization layer may be provided between the lens and the color filter. The lens may also be arranged and used in the manner described in International Publication No. 2018 / 135189. [Example]

[0238] (Evaluation of moisture resistance) The coloring composition was applied onto a silicon wafer by spin coating, and then heat-treated (pre-baked) using a hot plate at 100° C. for 120 seconds to form a composition layer with a thickness of 0.6 μm. Next, this composition layer was exposed to i-rays at 500 mJ / cm using an i-ray stepper exposure system (FPA-3000i5+, manufactured by Canon Corporation) through a mask pattern in which square unmasked areas with sides of 1.0 μm were arranged in an area of ​​4 mm × 3 mm. 2 The film was exposed to light at an exposure dose of 1000 ppm. The silicon wafer with the exposed composition layer formed thereon was then placed on the horizontal rotating table of a spin-shower developer (DW-30 model, manufactured by Chemitronics Corporation) and puddle-developed for 60 seconds at 23°C using a developer (CD-2000, manufactured by Fujifilm Electronic Materials Co., Ltd.). Next, while rotating the silicon wafer at a rotation speed of 50 rpm, pure water was supplied from a spray nozzle above the center of rotation in a shower-like manner to rinse the wafer, and the wafer was then spray-dried to form a patterned (pixel) substrate. The resulting patterned substrate was placed in a thermo-hygrostat (EHS-221M, manufactured by Yamato Scientific Co., Ltd.) and left to stand in an atmosphere at a temperature of 85°C and a relative humidity of 85% for 500, 750, 1000, and 1500 hours to conduct a moisture resistance test. After the test, the substrate was observed using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) (S-4800H, manufactured by Hitachi High-Technologies Corporation) to evaluate the moisture resistance by observing whether or not there was peeling of the pixels. Peeling was considered to have occurred if the pixels were completely peeled off from the silicon wafer or if cracks were present at the interface between the pixel and the silicon wafer. The evaluation criteria for moisture resistance are as follows. A: No peeling observed even after 1500 hours of humidity resistance testing B: No peeling was observed after 1000 hours of humidity resistance testing, but peeling was observed after 1500 hours. C: No peeling was observed after 500 hours of humidity resistance testing, but peeling was observed after 1000 hours. D: Peeling was observed after 500 hours of humidity resistance testing.

[0240] As shown in the table above, the examples had good storage stability and were able to form films with excellent spectral properties and light resistance. Furthermore, the films obtained using the colored compositions of the examples had spectral properties suitable for use as yellow color filters.

[0241] (Example 1001) The yellow colored composition was applied to a silicon wafer by spin coating so that the film thickness after formation would be 0.6 μm. Then, the wafer was heated at 100° C. for 2 minutes using a hot plate. Next, an i-line stepper exposure system FPA-3000i5+ (manufactured by Canon Inc.) was used to apply the yellow colored composition to a silicon wafer at 1000 mJ / cm . 2 The substrate was exposed to light at an exposure dose of 1 μm through a mask with a 1 μm square dot pattern. Next, puddle development was performed using a 0.3% by mass aqueous solution of tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) at 23°C for 60 seconds. The substrate was then rinsed with a spin shower and further washed with pure water. The yellow coloring composition was then patterned by heating at 200°C for 5 minutes using a hot plate to form yellow pixels. Similarly, the red coloring composition and the blue coloring composition were patterned using the same process to sequentially form red and blue pixels, thereby forming a color filter having yellow, red, and blue pixels. The yellow coloring composition used was the coloring composition of Example 1. The red coloring composition and the blue coloring composition will be described later. In this color filter, the yellow pixels were formed in a Bayer pattern, and the red and blue pixels were formed in adjacent regions in an island pattern. The resulting color filter was incorporated into a solid-state imaging device according to a known method. This solid-state imaging device exhibited favorable image recognition capabilities.
