Abstract
Description
Polysiloxane, photosensitive resin composition, cured product, semiconductor device, and organic EL display device
[0001] The present invention relates to a polysiloxane, a photosensitive resin composition, a cured product using the same, a semiconductor device, and an organic EL display device.
[0002] Polysiloxanes have excellent transparency in addition to heat resistance and electrical insulation. Therefore, they are used in surface protection layers and interlayer insulating layers of semiconductor devices, insulating layers of organic electroluminescence (EL) display devices, and planarization layers of thin film transistor (TFT) substrates for display devices. With the recent diversification of electronic device designs, display devices have become increasingly high-definition and flexible, and semiconductor devices have become smaller and more highly integrated. Therefore, technological developments are required for materials used in these insulating films, protective films, and the like to meet these needs. High-definition and flexible materials are particularly in demand.
[0003] For example, Patent Document 1 describes a polysiloxane containing a vinyl group or a styryl group in the side chain as a positive-type photosensitive resin composition, and Patent Document 2 describes a curable polysiloxane having an isocyanurate ring structure and an epoxy group in the side chain as a hard coating material.

[0005] However, when the materials described in Patent Documents 1 and 2 are processed, breakage occurs at the processed curved surface, and therefore the flexibility of the materials described in Patent Documents 1 and 2 is still insufficient.

[0055] <Method for Producing the Polysiloxane> A method for producing the polysiloxane will be described.
[0056] The polysiloxane can be obtained by subjecting an alkoxysilane compound serving as a raw material to a hydrolysis reaction and a condensation reaction.
[0057] The hydrolysis reaction is carried out by adding an acid catalyst and water to the alkoxysilane compound in a solvent to generate silanol groups. The acid catalyst and water are preferably added to the alkoxysilane compound over a period of 1 to 180 minutes, and then the reaction is carried out at 10 to 130°C for 1 to 180 minutes. Carrying out the hydrolysis reaction under these conditions can prevent a rapid reaction. A more preferred reaction temperature for the hydrolysis reaction is 40 to 110°C.
[0058] After the hydrolysis reaction, a condensation reaction is carried out to obtain the polysiloxane. The condensation reaction is preferably carried out by heating the reaction solution at a temperature of 50° C. or higher and lower than the boiling point of the solvent for 1 to 100 hours.
[0059] Various conditions for the hydrolysis reaction and condensation reaction, such as acid concentration, reaction temperature, and reaction time, can be set in consideration of the reaction scale, size and shape of the reaction vessel, etc., to obtain physical properties suitable for the intended application.
[0060] Examples of the acid catalyst used in the hydrolysis reaction include hydrochloric acid, acetic acid, formic acid, nitric acid, oxalic acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, polyphosphoric acid, polycarboxylic acids or their anhydrides, ion exchange resins, etc. As the acid catalyst used in the hydrolysis reaction, it is particularly preferable to use formic acid, acetic acid or phosphoric acid.
[0061] The preferred content of the acid catalyst used in the hydrolysis reaction is preferably 0.05 parts by mass or more, more preferably 0.1 parts by mass or more, relative to 100 parts by mass of the total polysiloxane compounds before the hydrolysis reaction. The preferred content of the acid catalyst used in the hydrolysis reaction is preferably 10 parts by mass or less, more preferably 5 parts by mass or less, relative to 100 parts by mass of the total polysiloxane compounds before the hydrolysis reaction. Here, the total amount of polysiloxane compounds refers to the amount of silicon-containing compounds, including alkoxysilane compounds, which are raw materials for polysiloxanes, their hydrolysates, and polysiloxanes, which are condensates thereof. The same definition applies hereinafter. By using an amount of acid catalyst of 0.05 parts by mass or more, the hydrolysis proceeds smoothly, and by using an amount of acid catalyst of 10 parts by mass or less, the hydrolysis reaction can be easily controlled.

[0063] Of these, propylene glycol monomethyl ether, propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, propylene glycol monoethyl ether, propylene glycol monopropyl ether, propylene glycol monobutyl ether, propylene glycol mono-t-butyl ether, and γ-butyrolactone can be preferably used.
[0064] It is also preferable to add a solvent after the completion of the hydrolysis and condensation reaction to adjust the concentration or viscosity to an appropriate level for the photosensitive resin composition. Alternatively, after the hydrolysis, all or part of the volatile hydrolysis products such as alcohols produced may be distilled and removed by heating and / or under reduced pressure, and then a suitable solvent may be added.
[0065] The amount of solvent used during the hydrolysis reaction is preferably 50 parts by mass or more, more preferably 80 parts by mass or more, and preferably 500 parts by mass or less, more preferably 200 parts by mass or less, relative to 100 parts by mass of the total polysiloxane compound. By using a solvent amount of 50 parts by mass or more, gel formation can be suppressed. Furthermore, by using a solvent amount of 500 parts by mass or less, the hydrolysis reaction proceeds quickly.
[0066] The water used in the hydrolysis reaction is preferably ion-exchanged water. The amount of water can be selected arbitrarily, but it is preferable to use 1.0 to 4.0 moles of water per mole of the alkoxysilane compound.

That is, predetermined amounts of the compound represented by formula (12), the 1,2-naphthoquinone diazide-5-(and / or -4-)sulfonyl chloride, and a solvent such as dioxane, acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, or N-methylpyrrolidone are charged into a flask, and a basic catalyst such as sodium hydroxide, sodium bicarbonate, or triethylamine is added dropwise to cause condensation. The temperature of the condensation reaction is generally −20 to 60°C, preferably 0 to 40°C. The resulting product is preferably washed with water, purified, and dried.
[0079] In the above esterification reaction, mixtures with various different esterification rates and esterification positions are obtained. The esterification rate referred to in the present invention is defined as the average value of this mixture. The esterification rate of a phenolic compound can be calculated from the peak area ratio obtained by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The esterification rate can be adjusted by the mixing ratio of the raw material phenolic compound and 1,2-naphthoquinonediazide-5-(and / or -4-)sulfonyl chloride. In other words, since substantially all of the added 1,2-naphthoquinonediazide-5-(and / or -4-)sulfonyl chloride undergoes esterification, a mixture with the desired esterification rate can be obtained by adjusting the molar ratio of the raw materials.

Within this temperature range, the temperature may be increased stepwise or continuously.
[0096] The time for heat curing the photosensitive resin composition is preferably 30 minutes or more from the viewpoint of further reducing the amount of outgassing, and is preferably 3 hours or less from the viewpoint of improving the toughness of the cured product.

[0098] The cured product of the present invention is suitable for use as, for example, a surface protection layer or interlayer insulating layer in a semiconductor device, an insulating layer in an organic electroluminescent (EL) display device or a micro LED display device, a planarizing layer in a TFT substrate for driving an organic electroluminescent (EL) display device or a micro LED display device, a wiring protection insulating layer in a circuit board, an on-chip microlens in a solid-state imaging device, or a planarizing layer for various displays and solid-state imaging devices. For example, the cured product is suitable as a surface protection layer or an interlayer insulating layer in MRAM, which has low heat resistance, polymer memory (Polymer Ferroelectric RAM: PFRAM), which is a promising next-generation memory, and phase change memory (Phase Change RAM: PCRAM, Ovonics Unified Memory: OUM). It can also be used as an insulating layer in a display device including a first electrode formed on a substrate and a second electrode disposed opposite the first electrode, such as an LCD, an ECD, an ELD, or an organic electroluminescent (EL) display device. The following description will be given using an organic electroluminescent (EL) display device and a semiconductor device as examples.
[0099] <Organic EL Display Device> The organic EL display device of the present invention comprises the cured product of the present invention.
[0100] A specific example of the organic EL display device is an organic EL display device having a driving circuit, a planarizing layer, a first electrode, an insulating layer, a light-emitting layer, and a second electrode on a substrate, and the planarizing layer and / or insulating layer preferably comprises the cured product of the present invention. Organic EL light-emitting materials are susceptible to degradation by moisture, which can have adverse effects such as a decrease in the area ratio of the light-emitting portion to the area of the light-emitting pixel. However, the cured product of the present invention has low water absorption, thereby achieving stable driving and light-emitting characteristics. Taking an active matrix display device as an example, a display device has a TFT and wiring located on the sides of the TFT and connected to the TFT on a substrate such as glass or various plastics, a planarizing layer on top of the TFT to cover the irregularities, and a display element is further provided on the planarizing layer. The display element and the wiring are connected via contact holes formed in the planarizing layer.
[0101] When the cured product of the present invention is used as the planarizing layer, the thickness is preferably 1.0 μm or more and 5.0 μm or less, more preferably 2.0 μm or more. By making the planarizing layer within the above-mentioned range, the planarization layer can be made higher in definition and the planarization degree of densely packed TFTs and wiring can be improved. If the planarizing layer becomes thick, outgassing increases, causing a decrease in the light-emitting reliability of the organic EL display device. However, the cured product of the present invention has low outgassing, and therefore high light-emitting reliability can be obtained. Furthermore, since TFTs and wiring can be arranged in the film thickness direction in order to achieve high definition, the planarizing layer is preferably multi-layered.
[0102] FIG. 1 shows a cross-sectional view of an example of a TFT substrate. Bottom-gate or top-gate thin film transistors (TFTs) 1 are arranged in a matrix on a substrate 6, with a TFT insulating layer 3 covering the TFTs 1. Wiring 2 connected to the TFTs 1 is provided on the TFT insulating layer 3. A planarization layer 4 is provided on the TFT insulating layer 3, burying the wiring 2. Contact holes 7 are provided in the planarization layer 4, reaching the wiring 2. An ITO (transparent electrode) 5 is formed on the planarization layer 4, connected to the wiring 2 via the contact holes 7. The ITO 5 serves as an electrode for a display element (e.g., an organic EL element). An insulating layer 8 is formed to cover the periphery of the ITO 5. The organic EL element may be a top-emission type that emits light from the side opposite the substrate 6, or a bottom-emission type that extracts light from the substrate 6. In this manner, an active matrix organic EL display device is obtained, in which TFTs 1 for driving each organic EL element are connected to the corresponding TFTs 1.
[0103] The TFT insulating layer 3, the planarizing layer 4, and / or the insulating layer 8 can be formed by the steps of forming a photosensitive resin film made of the photosensitive resin composition of the present invention, exposing the photosensitive resin film, developing the exposed photosensitive resin film, and heat-treating the developed photosensitive resin film, as described above. An organic EL display device comprising the cured product of the present invention can be obtained by a manufacturing method including these steps.
[0104] <Semiconductor Device> The semiconductor device of the present invention comprises the cured product of the present invention.
[0105] A specific example of the semiconductor device is preferably a semiconductor device having electrodes, metal wiring, an interlayer insulating layer and / or a surface protective layer on a substrate, in which the interlayer insulating layer and / or the surface protective layer comprises the cured product of the present invention.
[0106] Figure 2 shows an enlarged cross-sectional view of an example of a pad portion of a semiconductor device having bumps. A passivation layer 11 having an input / output Al pad 10 and via holes is formed on a silicon wafer 9. An insulating layer 12 is then formed on the passivation layer 11. A metal layer 13 made of Cr, Ti, or the like is then formed to connect to the Al pad 10, and metal wiring 14 made of Al, Cu, or the like is then formed by electrolytic plating or the like. The metal layer 13 located around the solder bumps 18 is etched to provide insulation between the pads. A barrier metal 16 and the solder bumps 18 are formed on the insulated pads. A scribe line 17 is formed when the insulating film 15 is processed.
[0107] Next, a method for manufacturing the semiconductor device will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 3 shows an example of a method for manufacturing the semiconductor device having bumps. In step 3a, a photosensitive resin composition of the present invention is applied to a silicon wafer 9 on which an Al pad 10 and a passivation layer 11 have been formed, and a patterned cured insulating layer 12 is formed through a photolithography process. Next, in step 3b, a metal layer 13 is formed by sputtering. In step 3c, metal wiring 14 is formed on the metal layer 13 by plating. Next, in step 3d', a photosensitive resin composition of the present invention is applied, and in step 3d, a pattern of the cured insulating layer 15 is formed through a photolithography process. During this process, the photosensitive resin composition constituting the insulating layer 15 is processed into a thick film along scribe lines 17. Further wiring (so-called rewiring) can be formed on the insulating layer 15. When forming a multilayer wiring structure of two or more layers, the above steps can be repeated to form a multilayer wiring structure in which two or more rewiring layers are separated by an interlayer insulating layer made of the cured product of the present invention. Although there is no upper limit to the number of layers in the multilayer wiring structure, those with 10 layers or less are often used. Next, in step 3e, barrier metal 16 is formed, and in step 3f, solder bumps 18 are formed. Finally, the substrate is diced along scribe lines 17 to separate into individual chips, thereby obtaining the semiconductor device having bumps.
