[0002] Polyimide resin and polybenzoxazole resin are excellent in heat resistance and insulation, and therefore are suitable for various applications (for example, refer to non-patent literature 1 and 2). The application is not particularly limited. If a semiconductor device for mounting is used as an example, the use as a material for an insulating film and a sealing material or a protective film thereof can be cited. In addition, it is also used as a base film and a coating film of a flexible substrate.

[0003] The above-mentioned polyimide resin etc. are usually dissolved in low solubility of solvent. Therefore, the precursor before the cyclization reaction is mostly used as a method for dissolving in a solvent under the state of a polymer precursor such as a polyimide precursor and a polybenzoxazole precursor. Thus, it is possible to achieve excellent handling properties, so that it is possible to apply to the various forms such as substrates to process when manufacturing the above-mentioned products. Afterwards, the polymer precursor is heated and cyclized, so that a solidified product can be formed. In addition to the high performance such as heat resistance and insulation properties possessed by polyimide resin etc., from the viewpoint of excellent adaptability in this manufacturing, it is expected that the application in this industry will be gradually carried out.

[0004] There is a resin proposed as a material for coating by utilizing the above characteristics (Patent Document 1). The photosensitive resin composition contains (A) a polyimide precursor, (B) a specific plasticizer, and (C) a photosensitizer. It is described that a product having flexibility, no warping, and exhibiting flame retardancy can be provided.

[0005] In order to be used as an insulating resin for a rewiring layer, a thermosetting resin composition containing a specific tertiary amine compound and a thermosetting resin cured by alkali cyclization is proposed (Patent Document 2). It is recorded that the cyclization reaction can be carried out at low temperatures, so the stability is excellent. In addition, a photosensitive resin composition is proposed, which contains a compound having an anion part, a heterocyclic polymer precursor and a free radical polymerizable compound in consideration of being used as an insulating film for a rewiring layer, and the compound containing the anion part has a specific quaternary ammonium (cation part) and free radical initiation energy (Patent Document 3). It is recorded that the cyclization reaction can be carried out at low temperatures, and the resolution in exposure and development is excellent.

And, as long as there is no special record, the detection is set to the detection of a wavelength 254nm detector using UV line (ultraviolet rays).

[0064] The photosensitive resin composition of the present invention (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as "the composition of the present invention" or "the resin composition of the present invention") is characterized by containing at least one thermal base generator selected from the group consisting of thermal base generators represented by formula (B1) and thermal base generators represented by formula (B2) (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as "specific thermal base generator"), at least one polymer precursor selected from the group consisting of polyimide precursors and polybenzoxazole precursors, and a photosensitive agent, and the total content of acid groups and acid generating groups contained in the above polymer precursor and the above photosensitive agent (hereinafter, this amount is sometimes referred to as "the amount of acid groups, etc.") is 0.5 mmol / g or less. By adopting this structure, a photosensitive resin composition having excellent storage stability, mechanical properties, developer solubility of unexposed parts, and photolithography properties can be obtained. The reasons for solving the above problems are considered to be as follows, including estimation.

[0065] In the photosensitive resin composition, the amount of acid groups contained in the polymer precursor is reduced, so that a material that can be developed more quickly in an organic solvent with low polarity can be prepared. The thermosetting film formed by the photosensitive resin composition that can be developed by an organic solvent is generally low in hygroscopicity and has excellent adhesion to the substrate and device reliability. On the other hand, the amount of acid groups in the polymer precursor is small, so if a basic compound is present in the composition, the cyclization reaction of the polymer precursor is easy to proceed. As a result, the storage stability is reduced. In the present invention, a specific thermal base generator having a structure that is roughly neutral before thermal decomposition and generates a base after thermal decomposition is used, thereby maintaining good curability based on the heating of the polymer precursor contained in the photosensitive resin composition and stably storing the photosensitive resin composition. In addition, the above-mentioned specific thermal base generator is preferably non-ionic, thereby enabling the organic solvent developability of the resin composition to be made even better.

[0066] <Specific thermal alkali generating agents>

[0071] In addition, the tertiary amine structure in this specification refers to a structure in which the three bonds of the trivalent nitrogen atom are covalently bonded to the carbon atom of the hydrocarbon system. Therefore, when the bonded carbon atom is a carbon atom in the form of a carbonyl group, that is, when it forms an amide group together with the nitrogen atom, it is not limited to this. In the present invention, the organic group contained in the above-mentioned specific thermal base generator does not have a tertiary amine structure, and thus when the resist liquid is stored, the amidation reaction of the polymer in the solution is suppressed, so that the storage property of the resist liquid is excellent. In addition, each substituent does not have a carboxyl group, so that the solubility in organic solvents is excellent and the developability is excellent.

In addition, an activator that reacts with a photoexcited sensitizer to generate active free radicals may be used.

[0213] The photo-radical polymerization initiator preferably contains at least one compound having a molar absorption coefficient of at least about 50 in the range of about 300 to 800 nm (preferably 330 to 500 nm). The molar absorption coefficient of the compound can be measured by a known method.

[0214] The photosensitive resin composition contains a photoradical polymerization initiator, and after the photosensitive resin composition of the present invention is applied to a substrate such as a semiconductor wafer to form a photosensitive resin composition layer, curing due to the generated radicals is caused by irradiation with light, thereby reducing the solubility in the light-irradiated portion. Therefore, for example, there is an advantage that by exposing the photosensitive resin composition layer through a photomask having a pattern that shields only the electrode portion, regions with different solubility can be easily produced according to the pattern of the electrode.

[0381] <<Heating process>>

[0382] The manufacturing method of the present invention preferably includes a film forming step (layer forming step), a drying step or a heating step after the developing step. In the heating step, a cyclization reaction of the polymer precursor is carried out. In addition, the composition of the present invention may contain a free radical polymerizable compound other than the polymer precursor, but the curing of the free radical polymerizable compound other than the unreacted polymer precursor can also be carried out in this step. The heating temperature (maximum heating temperature) of the layer in the heating step is preferably 50°C or more, more preferably 80°C or more, further preferably 140°C or more, further preferably 160°C or more, and further preferably 170°C or more.

By setting the heating rate to 1°C / min or more, productivity can be ensured while preventing excessive volatilization of amines, and by setting the heating rate to 12°C / min or less, residual stress in the cured film can be relaxed.

[0384] The temperature at the start of heating is preferably 20°C to 150°C, more preferably 20°C to 130°C, and further preferably 25°C to 120°C. The temperature at the start of heating refers to the temperature at the start of the process of heating to the maximum heating temperature. For example, when the photosensitive resin composition is applied to a substrate and then dried, the temperature of the dried film (layer) is preferably gradually increased from a temperature 30 to 200°C lower than the boiling point of the solvent contained in the photosensitive resin composition.

[0385] The heating time (heating time at the maximum heating temperature) is preferably 10 to 360 minutes, more preferably 20 to 300 minutes, and even more preferably 30 to 240 minutes.

The reason for this is not clear, but it is considered that this is because the acetylene groups of the polymer precursors between the layers undergo a cross-linking reaction.

[0387] Heating can be performed in stages. As an example, the following pretreatment process can be performed: heating from 25°C to 180°C at 3°C / min, keeping at 180°C for 60 minutes, heating from 180°C to 200°C at 2°C / min, and keeping at 200°C for 120 minutes. As the heating temperature of the pretreatment process, it is preferably 100-200°C, more preferably 110-190°C, and further preferably 120-185°C. In this pretreatment process, as described in the gazette of U.S. Patent No. 9159547, it is also preferred to treat while irradiating ultraviolet rays. By this pretreatment process, the properties of the film can be improved. The pretreatment process can be performed in a shorter time of about 10 seconds to 2 hours, more preferably 15 seconds to 30 minutes. The pretreatment can be set as a step of more than two stages, for example, pretreatment process 1 is performed in the range of 100-150°C, and then pretreatment process 2 is performed in the range of 150-200°C.

[0388] Furthermore, the heating may be followed by cooling, and the cooling rate at this time is preferably 1 to 5° C. / min.

[0389] In order to prevent decomposition of the polymer precursor, the heating step is preferably performed in an atmosphere with a low oxygen concentration by flowing an inert gas such as nitrogen, helium or argon. The oxygen concentration is preferably 50 ppm (volume ratio) or less, more preferably 20 ppm (volume ratio) or less.

[0390] <<Metal layer forming process>>

[0391] The production method of the present invention preferably includes a metal layer forming step of forming a metal layer on the surface of the photosensitive resin composition layer after the development treatment.

[0392] The metal layer is not particularly limited, and existing metals can be used. Examples thereof include copper, aluminum, nickel, vanadium, titanium, chromium, cobalt, gold, and tungsten. Copper and aluminum are more preferred, and copper is further preferred.

[0393] The formation method of the metal layer is not particularly limited, and existing methods can be adopted. For example, the method described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 2007-157879, Japanese Patent Table No. 2001-521288, Japanese Patent Publication No. 2004-214501, and Japanese Patent Publication No. 2004-101850 can be used. For example, photolithography, stripping, electroplating, electroless plating, etching, printing, and the method of combining these can be considered. More specifically, the patterning method combining sputtering, photolithography and etching, and the patterning method combining photolithography and electroplating can be listed.

[0394] The thickness of the metal layer is preferably 0.1 to 50 μm, more preferably 1 to 10 μm, based on the thickest portion.

[0395] <<Lamination process>>

[0396] The production method of the present invention preferably further includes a lamination step.

[0397] The lamination process refers to a series of processes of performing the above-mentioned film formation process (layer formation process) and heating process again on the surface of the cured film (resin layer) or the metal layer, or performing the above-mentioned film formation process (layer formation process), the above-mentioned exposure process and the above-mentioned development process in the photosensitive resin composition in the above-mentioned order. Of course, the lamination process may also include the above-mentioned drying process and heating process, etc.

[0398] When a further lamination step is performed after the lamination step, a surface activation treatment step may be further performed after the heating step, after the exposure step, or after the metal layer forming step. As the surface activation treatment, plasma treatment is exemplified.

[0399] The lamination step is preferably performed 2 to 5 times, more preferably 3 to 5 times.

[0400] For example, the resin layer preferably has a structure of 3 to 7 layers, more preferably 3 to 5 layers, such as resin layer / metal layer / resin layer / metal layer / resin layer / metal layer.

[0401] That is, in the present invention, it is particularly preferred that after the metal layer is provided, the film forming step (layer forming step) and the heating step of the photosensitive resin composition are further performed to cover the metal layer, or the film forming step (layer forming step), the exposure step and the development step (if necessary, the heating step) are performed in the photosensitive resin composition in the above order. By alternately performing the lamination step of laminating the photosensitive resin composition layer (resin) and the metal layer forming step, the photosensitive resin composition layer (resin layer) and the metal layer can be alternately laminated.

[0402] The present invention also discloses a semiconductor device having the cured film or laminate of the present invention. As a specific example of a semiconductor device in which the photosensitive resin composition of the present invention is used to form an interlayer insulating film for a redistribution layer, reference can be made to paragraphs 0213 to 0218 of Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2016-027357 and the description of FIG. 1 , and these contents are incorporated into this specification.

[0403] In addition, the sealing film, substrate material (base film and cover film of flexible printed substrate, interlayer insulating film) or insulating film for mounting purposes as above can be patterned by etching, etc. For the use of these, for example, reference can be made to Science&technology Co., Ltd.

The silicon wafer to which the photosensitive resin composition was applied was dried on a hot plate at 100°C for 4 minutes to form a photosensitive resin composition layer with a thickness of 20 μm on the silicon wafer. The photosensitive resin composition layer on the silicon wafer was exposed using a stepper (Nikon NSR 2005i9C). The exposure was performed using i-rays at a wavelength of 365 nm at 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, and 800 mJ / cm 2 Exposure was performed from 5 μm to 25 μm at each exposure energy using a line and space photomask with 1 μm increments.

[0450] The exposed photosensitive resin composition layer was negatively developed for 60 seconds using cyclopentanone. The smaller the line width of the obtained photosensitive resin composition layer (pattern), the greater the difference in solubility between the light-irradiated part and the light-non-irradiated part in the developer, which is a preferred result. In addition, for changes in exposure energy, if the change in line width is small, it means that the exposure latitude is large, which is a preferred result. The measurement limit is 5μm. The results were differentiated and evaluated as follows.

[0451] A: 10μm or less

[0452] B: more than 10μm and less than 20μm

[0453] C: A pattern exceeding 20 μm or having a line width with edge sharpness could not be obtained.

[0484] The above results show that the photosensitive resin composition using a specific thermal base generator in the present invention shows good results (B or more) in terms of storage stability, mechanical properties, developer solubility in the unexposed part, and photolithography, and is generally excellent. On the other hand, when a thermal base generator (TBG2) having a tertiary amine structure and a carboxyl group is used (Comparative Example 1), the storage stability is poor. When no thermal base generator is used (Comparative Example 2), the mechanical properties are poor. When a polymer precursor with a high acid value is used (Comparative Example 3), the storage stability, developer solubility in the unexposed part, and photolithography are poor.

[0485] <Example 100>

[0486] The photosensitive resin composition of Example 1 was filtered under pressure through a filter having a pore width of 0.8 μm, and then applied to a silicon wafer by spin coating. The silicon wafer coated with the photosensitive resin composition was dried on a hot plate at 100° C. for 5 minutes, and a photosensitive resin composition layer having a uniform thickness of 15 μm was formed on the silicon wafer. The photosensitive resin composition layer on the silicon wafer was subjected to a 500 mJ / cm 2The exposed photosensitive resin composition layer (resin layer) was exposed with an exposure energy of 100 μm, and the exposed photosensitive resin composition layer (resin layer) was developed with cyclopentanone for 60 seconds, thereby forming a hole (patterning) with a diameter of 10 μm. Next, the temperature was increased at a heating rate of 10°C / min in a nitrogen atmosphere, and after reaching 250°C, it was maintained at this temperature for 3 hours. After cooling to room temperature, a thin copper layer (metal layer) with a thickness of 2 μm was formed on a part of the surface of the photosensitive resin composition layer by a vapor deposition method in a manner covering the above-mentioned hole portion. Furthermore, the same type of photosensitive resin composition was used again on the surface of the metal layer and the photosensitive resin composition layer, and the sequence from filtering the photosensitive resin composition to heating the patterned film for 3 hours was implemented again in the same manner as above, thereby producing a laminate consisting of a resin layer / metal layer / resin layer.

[0487] This resin layer (interlayer insulating film for redistribution layer) has excellent insulating properties.

[0488] Furthermore, a semiconductor device was manufactured using the interlayer insulating film for redistribution layer, and it was confirmed that the device operated normally.
