[0082] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail.

[0083] The description of the constituent elements described below may be based on representative embodiments of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to such embodiments.

[0084] In addition, in this specification, the numerical range expressed with "to" means a range including the numerical values ​​described before and after "to" as the lower limit and the upper limit.

For example, "alkyl" includes not only alkyl groups without substituents (unsubstituted alkyl groups) but also alkyl groups with substituents (substituted alkyl groups).

[0086] In this specification, "active light" or "radiation" refers to, for example, far ultraviolet light, extreme ultraviolet light (EUV), X-rays, and electron beams. Furthermore, in this specification, "light" refers to both active light and radiation.

In this specification, "(meth)acryloyl" refers to both acryloyl and methacryloyl. In this specification, "(meth)acrylamide" refers to both acrylamide and methacrylamide.

[0089] In addition, in this specification, the weight average molecular weight (Mw) is a polystyrene conversion value based on the GPC (Gel Permeation Chromatography) method.

[0090] In this specification, the GPC method is based on the following method: using HLC-8020GPC (manufactured by TOSOH CORPORATION), TSKgel SuperHZM-H, TSKgel SuperHZ4000, TSKgel SuperHZ2000 (manufactured by TOSOH CORPORATION, 4.6 mm ID×15 cm) as columns, and THF (tetrahydrofuran) as an eluent.

[0093] In this specification, the "total solids" of a composition refers to the components that form a cured film. If the composition contains a solvent (organic solvent, water, etc.), it refers to all components other than the solvent. Furthermore, liquid components are also considered solids as long as they form a cured film.

[0094] [Dispersion]

[0095] The dispersion of the present invention contains: inorganic oxide particles surface-treated with at least one compound selected from the group consisting of a compound represented by Formula A1 described below (hereinafter also referred to as "Compound A1") and a compound represented by Formula A2 described below (hereinafter also referred to as "Compound A2"); a polysiloxane having at least one unit selected from the group consisting of a T unit represented by Formula B1 described below and a D unit represented by Formula B2 described below; and an organic solvent, wherein the content of the polysiloxane is 0.5 to 39% by mass relative to the total amount of the inorganic oxide particles and the polysiloxane.

[0096] The dispersion of the present invention has excellent storage stability. While the detailed reason for this is not yet clear, it is generally presumed as follows. Specifically, it is presumed that by including a predetermined amount of polysiloxane in a dispersion containing inorganic oxide particles surface-treated with a predetermined compound, the polysiloxane acts as a dispersant, thereby suppressing the aggregation of the inorganic oxide particles over time.

[0097] In the following description, excellent storage stability of the dispersion is also referred to as excellent effect of the present invention.

[0098] 〔Inorganic oxide particles〕

[0099] The dispersion of the present invention contains inorganic oxide particles. The inorganic oxide particles in the present invention are surface-treated with at least one compound selected from Compound A1 and Compound A2.

[0100] In the following description, Compound A1 and Compound A2 may be collectively referred to as "Compound A." Furthermore, inorganic oxide particles surface-treated with Compound A are also referred to as "surface-modified particles." Furthermore, inorganic oxide particles not surface-treated with Compound A are also referred to as "unmodified particles."

[0101] From the viewpoint of achieving more excellent effects of the present invention, the content of the surface-modified particles in the dispersion is preferably 1 to 100% by mass, more preferably 10 to 100% by mass, and even more preferably 20 to 100% by mass relative to the total solid content of the dispersion.

[0102] When the particle size of the surface-modified particles is large, the surface unevenness of the cured film (especially, the light-shielding film) obtained using the composition containing the dispersion tends to become larger, and the low reflectivity of the cured film is more excellent. On the other hand, when the particle size of the inorganic particles is small, since the inorganic particles are more likely to be unevenly present on the surface side of the cured film, it is easy to increase the proportion of the colorant present inside the cured film to make the light-shielding property of the cured film more excellent. From the viewpoint of the excellent balance between the low reflectivity and the light-shielding property of the cured film (especially, the light-shielding film) obtained in this way, the particle size of the inorganic particles is preferably 1 to 200 nm, more preferably 10 to 100 nm, and even more preferably 15 to 78 nm.

[0103] In this specification, the particle size of particles (surface-modified particles or colorants described below) refers to the average primary particle size of the particles measured by the following method. The average primary particle size can be measured using a scanning electron microscope (SEM).

[0104] The maximum length of the particle image obtained using the SEM (Dmax: the maximum length between two points on the particle image outline) and the length perpendicular to the maximum length (DV-max: the shortest length perpendicular to two straight lines parallel to the maximum length when the image is sandwiched) were measured and the average value was multiplied (Dmax × DV-max). 1 / 2 The particle diameters of 100 particles were measured using this method, and the arithmetic mean value was defined as the average primary particle diameter of the particles.

[0105] The refractive index of the surface-modified particles is not particularly limited, but is preferably 1.10 to 1.60, more preferably 1.15 to 1.45, from the viewpoint of achieving excellent low reflectivity of the cured film.

[0106] Furthermore, the surface-modified particles may be hollow particles or solid particles.

[0107] Hollow particles are particles with a cavity inside. Hollow particles can be composed of an internal cavity and a shell surrounding the cavity. Furthermore, hollow particles can be particles with multiple cavities inside.

[0108] Solid particles refer to particles in which substantially no cavity exists inside the particles.

[0109] The porosity of the hollow particles is preferably 3% or more, and the porosity of the solid particles is preferably less than 3%.

[0110] From the viewpoint of achieving more excellent effects of the present invention, the surface-modified particles are preferably hollow particles.

[0111] Since hollow particles have a cavity inside and have a lower specific gravity than particles without a hollow structure, they float on the surface of a coating film formed using the composition, further enhancing the effect of uneven distribution on the surface of the cured film.

[0112] Furthermore, the refractive index of the hollow particles is lower than that of the particles without a hollow structure. For example, in the case of silica composed of hollow particles, since the hollow silica particles have air with a low refractive index (refractive index = 1.0), the refractive index of the particles themselves becomes 1.2 to 1.4, which is significantly lower than that of conventional silica (refractive index = 1.6). Therefore, it is believed that by forming a cured film using a composition containing hollow particles, hollow particles with a low refractive index are unevenly present on the surface of the cured film, obtaining an AR (Anti-Reflection) type low-reflection effect and improving the low reflectivity of the cured film.

[0113] Examples of the hollow particles include hollow silica particles described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-233611 and Japanese Patent No. 3272111.

[0114] As the hollow particles, for example, Thrylya 4110 (product name, manufactured by JGC Catalysts and Chemicals Ltd.) can also be used.

[0115] As solid particles, IPA-ST, IPA-ST-L, IPA-ST-ZL, MIBK-ST, MIBK-ST-L, CHO-ST-M, PGM-AC-2140Y, PGM-AC-4130Y (all product names manufactured by NISSAN CHEMICAL CORPORATION) and the like can be used as preferred embodiments.

[0116] Surface-modified particles can be formed by chain-linking a plurality of silica particles, i.e., beaded silica particles. Preferably, the beaded silica particles are formed by linking a plurality of spherical colloidal silica particles having a particle size of 5 to 50 nm through silica containing a metal oxide.

[0117] Examples of the beaded colloidal silica particles include silica sols described in Japanese Patent No. 4328935 and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2013-253145.

[0118] The surface-modified particles are preferably not black. The surface-modified particles may have colors such as red, blue, yellow, green, purple, orange, or white, or may be colorless. Among them, the surface-modified particles are preferably white or colorless.

[0119] Examples of the inorganic oxide that constitutes at least a portion of the surface-modified particles include silicon dioxide (silicon oxide), titanium dioxide (titania), aluminum oxide (alumina), zirconium dioxide (zirconium oxide), zinc oxide, and tin oxide. Among these, silicon dioxide, titanium dioxide, and zirconium dioxide are preferred, and silicon dioxide is more preferred, from the perspective of achieving a more excellent effect of the present invention.

[0120] In other words, the surface-modified particles preferably contain silicon dioxide, and more preferably are silicon dioxide particles.

[0121] The surface-modified particles may contain components other than the inorganic oxide. The content of the inorganic oxide in the surface-modified particles is preferably 75 to 100% by mass, more preferably 90 to 100% by mass, and even more preferably 99 to 100% by mass relative to the total mass of the surface-modified particles.

[0122] The surface-modified particles can be regarded as particles obtained by surface-treating unmodified particles with Compound A.

[0123] Therefore, generally, when the surface-modified particles are solid particles, the unmodified particles are also solid particles, and when the surface-modified particles are hollow particles, the unmodified particles are also hollow particles.

[0124] Components constituting the unmodified particles include the above-mentioned inorganic oxides, and preferred aspects thereof are the same as those for the surface-modified particles.

[0343] <Colorless colorant>

[0344] Examples of the colorless colorant include black colorants and white colorants.

[0345] (black colorant)

[0346] Examples of the black colorant include one or more selected from black pigments and black dyes.

[0347] Furthermore, a black colorant may be formed by combining a plurality of colorants that cannot be used as a black colorant individually and adjusting the overall color to black.

[0348] For example, a plurality of pigments that individually have colors other than black can be combined to use as a black pigment. Similarly, a plurality of dyes that individually have colors other than black can be combined to use as a black dye, or a pigment that individually has a color other than black and a dye that individually has a color other than black can be combined to use as a black dye.

[0349] In this specification, a black colorant refers to a colorant having absorption over the entire wavelength range of 400 to 700 nm.

[0350] More specifically, for example, a black colorant that satisfies the evaluation criteria Z described below is preferred.

[0351] First, a composition containing a colorant, a transparent resin matrix (acrylic resin, etc.) and a solvent, wherein the content of the colorant is 60% by mass relative to the total solids, is prepared. On a glass substrate, the obtained composition is applied in a manner such that the film thickness of the dried coating becomes 1 μm to form a coating. A spectrophotometer (such as UV-3600 manufactured by SHIMADZU CORPORATION) is used to evaluate the light-shielding properties of the dried coating. If the maximum value of the transmittance of the dried coating at a wavelength of 400 to 700 nm is less than 10%, it can be determined that the colorant is a black colorant that meets evaluation standard Z. In evaluation standard Z, the maximum value of the transmittance of the dried coating at a wavelength of 400 to 700 nm is more preferably less than 8%, and further preferably less than 5%.

[0352] Black pigment

[0353] As the black pigment, various known black pigments can be used. The black pigment may be an inorganic pigment or an organic pigment.

[0354] From the viewpoint of achieving more excellent light resistance of the light-shielding film, the black colorant is preferably a black pigment.

[0355] The black pigment is preferably a pigment that exhibits black color alone, and more preferably a pigment that exhibits black color alone and absorbs infrared rays.

[0356] Here, the infrared absorbing black pigment has absorption in the infrared region (preferably a wavelength of 650 to 1300 nm), for example, and preferably has a maximum absorption wavelength in the wavelength region of 675 to 900 nm.

[0357] The particle size of the black pigment is not particularly limited, but is preferably 5 to 100 nm, more preferably 5 to 50 nm, and even more preferably 5 to 30 nm from the viewpoint of achieving a better balance between handleability and temporal stability of the composition (no sedimentation of the black pigment).

[0358] In addition, in this specification, the particle size of the black pigment represents the average primary particle size of the particles measured using the following method. The average primary particle size can be measured using a transmission electron microscope (TEM). As a transmission electron microscope, for example, a transmission microscope HT7700 manufactured by Hitachi High-Technologies Corporation can be used.

[0359] The maximum length (Dmax: the maximum length between two points on the particle image contour) and the perpendicular length (DV-max: the shortest length perpendicular to the maximum length when two straight lines parallel to the maximum length are sandwiched between the image) of the particle image obtained using a transmission electron microscope were measured and the average value (Dmax × DV-max) was multiplied. 1 / 2 The particle diameters of 100 particles were measured using this method, and the arithmetic mean value was defined as the average primary particle diameter of the particles.

[0360] Inorganic pigments used as black colorants

[0361] The inorganic pigment used as the black colorant is not particularly limited as long as it has light-shielding properties and contains particles of an inorganic compound, and known inorganic pigments can be used.

[0362] From the viewpoint of achieving excellent low reflectivity and light-shielding properties of the light-shielding film, an inorganic pigment is preferred as the black colorant.

[0363] Examples of the inorganic pigment include metal elements selected from Group 4 such as titanium (Ti) and zirconium (Zr), Group 5 such as vanadium (V) and niobium (Nb), cobalt (Co), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), manganese (Mn), ruthenium (Ru), iron (Fe), nickel (Ni), tin (Sn) and silver (Ag), and metal oxides, metal nitrides and metal oxynitrides.

[0364] As the metal oxides, metal nitrides, and metal oxynitrides, particles containing other atoms may be used. For example, particles containing metal nitrides containing atoms selected from elements in Groups 13 to 17 of the periodic table (preferably oxygen and / or sulfur atoms) may be used.

[0365] The method for producing the metal nitride, metal oxide, or metal oxynitride is not particularly limited as long as it is a method for producing a black pigment having desired physical properties, and a known production method such as a gas phase reaction method can be used. Examples of the gas phase reaction method include an electric furnace method and a thermal plasma method. The thermal plasma method is preferred because it has less impurities, can easily achieve uniform particle size, and can improve productivity.

[0366] The metal nitride, metal oxide, or metal oxynitride may be surface-modified. For example, the surface-modified particles may be treated with a surface treatment agent having both a polysiloxy group and an alkyl group. Examples of such inorganic particles include the "KTP-09" series (manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd.).

[0367] Among these, from the perspective of suppressing undercutting during the formation of the light-shielding film, nitrides or oxynitrides of one or more metals selected from titanium, vanadium, zirconium, and niobium are more preferred. Furthermore, from the perspective of providing a light-shielding film with even better moisture resistance, oxynitrides of one or more metals selected from titanium, vanadium, zirconium, and niobium are even more preferred, with titanium oxynitride (titanium black), zirconium nitride, or zirconium oxynitride being particularly preferred.

[0368] Titanium black is black particles containing titanium oxynitride. The surface of titanium black can be modified as needed to improve dispersibility, inhibit agglomeration, and so on. Titanium black can be coated with silicon oxide, titanium oxide, germanium oxide, aluminum oxide, magnesium oxide, or zirconium oxide, and can also be treated with a hydrophobic substance as described in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2007-302836.

[0369] Methods for producing titanium black include: a method of heating a mixture of titanium dioxide and metallic titanium under a reducing atmosphere and reducing the mixture (Japanese Patent Publication No. 49-5432); a method of reducing ultrafine titanium dioxide obtained by high-temperature hydrolysis of titanium tetrachloride in a reducing atmosphere containing hydrogen (Japanese Patent Publication No. 57-205322); a method of high-temperature reducing titanium dioxide or titanium hydroxide in the presence of ammonia (Japanese Patent Publication No. 60-65069, Japanese Patent Publication No. 61-201610); and a method of attaching a vanadium compound to titanium dioxide or titanium hydroxide and reducing the mixture at high temperature in the presence of ammonia (Japanese Patent Publication No. 61-201610), etc., but are not limited to these.

[0370] The particle size of titanium black is not particularly limited, but is preferably 10 to 45 nm, more preferably 12 to 20 nm. The specific surface area of ​​titanium black is not particularly limited, but in order to achieve the desired water repellency after surface treatment with a water repellent, the value measured by the BET (Brunauer, Emmett, Teller) method is preferably 5 to 150 nm. 2 / g, more preferably 20 to 100 m 2 / g.

[0371] Examples of commercially available titanium black include titanium black 10S, 12S, 13R, 13M, 13M-C, 13R, 13R-N, and 13M-T (product names, manufactured by Mitsubishi Materials Corporation), Tilack D (product name, manufactured by AkoKasei Co., Ltd.), and MT-150A (product name, manufactured by Tayca Corporation).

[0372] The composition also preferably contains titanium black as a dispersed body containing titanium black and Si atoms. In this form, titanium black is contained as a dispersed body in the composition. The ratio of Si atoms to Ti atoms in the dispersed body (Si / Ti) is preferably 0.05 to 0.5, more preferably 0.07 to 0.4, calculated on a mass basis. Here, the dispersed body includes both the state of titanium black as primary particles and the state of agglomerates (secondary particles).

[0373] Furthermore, when the Si / Ti ratio of the dispersion is above a predetermined value, residue is less likely to remain in the removed portion when a coating film using the dispersion is patterned by photolithography or the like, and when the Si / Ti ratio of the dispersion is below a predetermined value, the light shielding capability is likely to be improved.

[0374] To adjust the Si / Ti ratio of the dispersed material (e.g., to 0.05 or greater), the following mechanism can be used. First, titanium oxide and silicon dioxide particles are dispersed using a disperser to obtain a dispersion. This mixture is then subjected to a reduction treatment at a high temperature (e.g., 850-1000°C) to obtain a dispersed material containing titanium black particles as the main component and Si and Ti. Titanium black with adjusted Si / Ti ratios can be produced, for example, using the methods described in paragraphs 0005 and 0016-0021 of Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2008-266045.

[0375] The content ratio of Si atoms to Ti atoms (Si / Ti) in the dispersed body can be measured using, for example, the method (2-1) or method (2-3) described in paragraphs 0054 to 0056 of International Publication No. 2011 / 049090.

[0376] In the dispersed body containing titanium black and Si atoms, titanium black can be used as described above. Furthermore, in this dispersed body, one or more black pigments composed of composite oxides of multiple metals selected from Cu, Fe, Mn, V, and Ni, cobalt oxide, iron oxide, carbon black, and aniline black, etc., can be used in combination with titanium black to adjust dispersibility and colorability. In this case, the dispersed body composed of titanium black preferably accounts for 50% by mass or more of the total dispersed body.

[0378] Carbon black can also be mentioned as an inorganic pigment.

[0379] Examples of carbon black include furnace black, channel black, thermal black, acetylene black, and lamp black.

[0380] Carbon black can be produced by a known method such as an oil furnace method, or a commercially available product can be used. Specific examples of commercially available carbon black include organic pigments such as CI Pigment Black 1 and inorganic pigments such as CI Pigment Black 7.

[0381] Carbon black that has been surface-treated is preferred. Surface treatment can alter the surface condition of carbon black particles and improve dispersion stability in the composition. Examples of surface treatments include coating with a resin, surface treatment to introduce acidic groups, and surface treatment with a silane coupling agent.

[0382] Carbon black that has been coated with a resin is preferred. Coating the carbon black particles with an insulating resin can improve the light-shielding and insulating properties of the light-shielding film. Furthermore, this can improve the reliability of image displays by reducing leakage current. Therefore, it is suitable for applications requiring insulating properties in light-shielding films.

[0383] Examples of the coating resin include epoxy resins, polyamides, polyamideimides, novolac resins, phenolic resins, urea resins, melamine resins, polyurethanes, dibutyl phthalate resins, alkylbenzene resins, polystyrene, polycarbonate, polybutylene terephthalate, and modified polyphenylene ether.

[0439] As a method for applying the composition to the support, various coating methods such as slit coating, inkjet coating, spin coating, cast coating, roll coating, and screen printing can be applied. The film thickness of the composition layer is preferably 0.1 to 10 μm, more preferably 0.2 to 5 μm, and even more preferably 0.2 to 3 μm. The composition layer applied to the support is dried (prebaked) for 10 to 300 seconds at a temperature of 50 to 140° C. on a hot plate, in an oven, or the like.

[0440] Examples of the primer layer include films containing resins such as (meth)acrylic resins. Specific examples of methods for forming the primer layer include methods in which a composition containing a (meth)acrylate, a crosslinking agent, a surfactant, and a solvent is applied to a support using a coating method such as spin coating to obtain a coating film, followed by drying the coating film.

[0441] About undercoat layer, the contact angle preferably measured using diiodomethane is 20~70 degree, and the contact angle measured using water is 30~80 degree.If the contact angle is more than the lower limit of the above range, the wettability of the color filter is good, and if it is below the upper limit, the surface energy of the film can be controlled to have good coating properties to undercoat layer.As the method for the scope of the above-mentioned contact angle, methods such as adding a surfactant and controlling drying speed, spin coating, rotating speed can be enumerated.The contact angle of undercoat layer is based on the drop method and measured using a contact angle meter.

[0442] A commercially available product can be used as the primer layer, and an example thereof is CT-4000L manufactured by FUJIFILM Electronic Materials Co., Ltd.

[0443] [Exposure process]

[0444] In the exposure step, the composition layer formed in the composition layer forming step is exposed by irradiating it with active light or radiation, and the light-irradiated composition layer is cured.

[0448] In addition, in the exposure step, when the composition layer is heated, a post-heating step described below may be used simultaneously. In other words, in the exposure step, when the composition layer is heated, the method for producing a cured film may not include a post-heating step.

[0449] [Development process]

[0450] The development step is a step of developing the exposed composition layer to form a cured film. This step dissolves the portion of the composition layer not exposed to light during the exposure step, leaving only the photocured portion, thereby obtaining a patterned cured film.

[0451] The type of developer used in the development step is not particularly limited, but an alkaline developer that does not damage the imaging element and circuits on the substrate is preferred.

[0452] The development temperature is, for example, 20 to 30°C.

[0453] The development time is, for example, 20 to 90 seconds. In recent years, for better residue removal, it has sometimes been extended to 120 to 180 seconds. Furthermore, to further improve residue removal, the developer solution is sometimes discarded and then supplied in a repeated process of 60-second intervals.

[0454] The alkali developer is preferably an alkaline aqueous solution prepared by dissolving an alkaline compound in water so as to have a concentration of 0.001 to 10% by mass (preferably 0.01 to 5% by mass).

The heating temperature is preferably 240°C or lower, more preferably 220°C or lower. The lower limit is not particularly limited, but considering efficiency and effective processing, it is preferably 50°C or higher, more preferably 100°C or higher.

[0459] Post-baking can be performed continuously or intermittently using a heating mechanism such as a hot plate, a convection oven (hot air circulation dryer), or a high-frequency heater.

[0460] The post-bake is preferably performed in an atmosphere with a low oxygen concentration. The oxygen concentration is preferably 19% by volume or less, more preferably 15% by volume or less, even more preferably 10% by volume or less, particularly preferably 7% by volume or less, and most preferably 3% by volume or less. The lower limit is not particularly limited, but is typically 10 ppm by volume or more.

[0461] Furthermore, it is possible to change to the post-baking based on the above-mentioned heating and complete the curing by UV (ultraviolet) irradiation.

[0462] In this case, the above-mentioned composition preferably further contains a UV curing agent. The UV curing agent is preferably a UV curing agent that can be cured at a wavelength shorter than the exposure wavelength of 365 nm, which is the wavelength of the polymerization initiator added for the usual i-ray exposure etching process. As a UV curing agent, for example, CIBS IRGACURE 2959 (product name) can be cited. In the case of UV irradiation, it is preferred that the composition layer is a material that is cured at a wavelength of 340 nm or less. The lower limit of the wavelength is not particularly limited, but is generally above 220 nm. In addition, the exposure amount of UV irradiation is preferably 100 to 5000 mJ, more preferably 300 to 4000 mJ, and even more preferably 800 to 3500 mJ. In order to perform low-temperature curing more effectively, the UV curing process is preferably performed after the exposure process. An ozone-free mercury lamp is preferably used as the exposure light source.

[0463] [Physical properties, shape, and applications of cured films, etc.]

[0466] The reflectivity referred to herein can be determined by using a VAR unit (V7200, a spectrometer manufactured by JASCO Corporation) to obtain a reflection spectrum by injecting light having a wavelength of 400 to 1100 nm at an incident angle of 5°. Specifically, the reflectivity of the cured film is determined by taking the reflectivity of light having a wavelength that exhibits the maximum reflectivity within the wavelength range of 400 to 1100 nm.

[0467] When the cured film is patterned, the size of one side of the pattern of the cured film is preferably 3 μm or less, more preferably 2 μm or less, and even more preferably 1.4 μm or less. The lower limit of the size of one side of the pattern of the cured film is not particularly limited, but is preferably 0.3 μm.

[0468] The pattern shape of the cured film is not particularly limited. However, when the cured film is a color filter used in a solid-state imaging element or the like, the pattern shape of the cured film is usually rectangular.

[0469] Furthermore, the above-mentioned cured film is suitable for portable devices such as personal computers, tablet computers, mobile phones, smartphones and digital cameras; OA (Office Automation) equipment such as printer multifunction machines and scanners; industrial equipment such as surveillance cameras, barcode readers, automated teller machines (ATMs), high-speed cameras and equipment with personal authentication functions using facial image authentication or biometric authentication; vehicle-mounted camera equipment; medical camera equipment such as endoscopes, capsule endoscopes and catheters; and space equipment such as living body sensors, biosensors, military reconnaissance cameras, stereo map cameras, meteorological and ocean observation cameras, land resource reconnaissance cameras and space astronomy and deep space target exploration cameras; and filters (for example, color filters) used in the light-shielding components and light-shielding films of modules, as well as anti-reflection components, i.e., anti-reflection films.

[0470] The cured film can also be used in applications such as micro-LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) and micro-OLEDs (Organic Light Emitting Diodes). In addition to filters and optical films (e.g., color filters) used in micro-LEDs and micro-OLEDs, the cured film is also suitable for components that provide light-shielding or anti-reflection functions.

[0471] Examples of micro LEDs and micro OLEDs include those described in Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2015-500562 and Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2014-533890.

[0472] The cured film is also suitable as an optical filter or optical film (e.g., a color filter) used in quantum dot sensors and quantum dot solid-state imaging devices. Furthermore, it is suitable as a component that imparts light-shielding and anti-reflection functions. Examples of quantum dot sensors and quantum dot solid-state imaging devices include those described in U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2012 / 37789 and International Publication No. 2008 / 131313.

[0473] [Light-shielding film, color filter, optical element, solid-state imaging element, and solid-state imaging device]

[0474] When the cured film of the present invention is formed using the composition of the present invention using a black colorant as a colorant, the cured film can also be preferably used as a so-called light-shielding film. Such a light-shielding film is also preferably used in a solid-state imaging element.

[0475] Furthermore, a light-shielding film is one of the preferred uses of the cured film of the present invention. The light-shielding film of the present invention can be produced in the same manner as described above as the method for producing the cured film.

[0476] When the cured film of the present invention is formed using the composition of the present invention using a colorant as a colorant, the cured film is preferably used as a so-called color filter. Such a color filter is also preferably used in a solid-state imaging device.

[0477] Furthermore, a color filter is one of the preferred applications of the cured film of the present invention. The color filter of the present invention can be produced in the same manner as the method further described above as the method for producing the cured film.

[0478] The present invention also includes the invention of an optical element. The optical element of the present invention is an optical element having the above-mentioned cured film. Examples of the optical element include optical elements used in optical equipment such as cameras, binoculars, microscopes, and semiconductor exposure equipment.

[0479] Among them, as the optical element, for example, a solid-state imaging element mounted in a camera or the like is preferable.

[0480] Furthermore, the solid-state imaging element of the present invention is a solid-state imaging element including the cured film of the present invention.

[0481] As an embodiment of the solid-state imaging element of the present invention containing a cured film, for example, a substrate is provided with a plurality of photodiodes constituting the light-receiving region of the solid-state imaging element (CCD image sensor, CMOS image sensor, etc.) and a light-receiving element formed of polycrystalline silicon or the like, and a cured film is provided on the light-receiving element formation surface side of the support (for example, a portion other than the light-receiving portion and / or color adjustment pixels, etc.) or on the side opposite to the formation surface.

[0482] Furthermore, when the cured film is used as a light attenuating film, for example, if the light attenuating film is arranged so that a portion of light passes through the light attenuating film and enters a light receiving element, the dynamic range of the solid-state imaging element can be improved.

[0483] A solid-state imaging device includes the above-mentioned solid-state imaging element.

[0484] refer to Figures 1-2 , the configuration examples of the solid-state imaging device and the solid-state imaging element are described. Figures 1-2 In order to clarify each part, a portion is shown enlarged without regard to the ratio of thickness and / or width between them.

[0485] Figure 1 It is a schematic cross-sectional view showing a configuration example of a solid-state imaging device including the solid-state imaging element of the present invention.

Furthermore, a lens layer 111 is superimposed on the cover glass 103 via a spacer 104. The lens layer 111 is composed of a support 113 and a lens material 112. The lens layer 111 may also be a structure in which the support 113 and the lens material 112 are integrally formed. If stray light enters the peripheral area of ​​the lens layer 111, the light diffusion weakens the focusing effect of the lens material 112, and the light reaching the imaging unit 102 is reduced. In addition, noise caused by the stray light is generated. Therefore, a light-shielding film 114 is provided on the peripheral area of ​​the lens layer 111 to block light. The cured film of the present invention can also be used as the light-shielding film 114.

[0487] Solid-state imaging element 101 photoelectrically converts an optical image formed on its light-receiving surface, imaging section 102, and outputs the image as an image signal. Solid-state imaging element 101 includes a laminated substrate 105 formed by stacking two substrates. Laminated substrate 105 includes a rectangular chip substrate 106 and a circuit substrate 107 of equal size. Circuit substrate 107 is laminated on the back of chip substrate 106.

[0488] As a material of a substrate used as the chip substrate 106 , for example, a well-known material can be used.

[0489] An imaging unit 102 is provided in the center of the surface of the chip substrate 106. Furthermore, a light-shielding film 115 is provided in the peripheral region of the imaging unit 102. Light-shielding film 115 blocks stray light from entering the peripheral region, thereby preventing the generation of dark current (noise) from the circuits in the peripheral region. The cured film of the present invention can be used as light-shielding film 115.

[0490] A plurality of electrode pads 108 are provided on the edge of the surface of the chip substrate 106 . The electrode pads 108 are electrically connected to the imaging unit 102 via signal lines (which may be bonding wires) not shown and provided on the surface of the chip substrate 106 .

[0491] On the back surface of the circuit substrate 107, external connection terminals 109 are provided approximately below each electrode pad 108. Each external connection terminal 109 is connected to the electrode pad 108 via a through electrode 110 that vertically penetrates the multilayer substrate 105. Furthermore, each external connection terminal 109 is connected via wiring (not shown) to a control circuit that controls the driving of the solid-state imaging element 101 and an image processing circuit that performs image processing on the imaging signal output from the solid-state imaging element 101.

[0492] Figure 2 A schematic cross-sectional view of the imaging unit 102 is shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, the imaging unit 102 is composed of components such as a light-receiving element 201, a color filter 202, and a microlens 203, which are provided on a substrate 204. The color filter 202 includes a blue pixel 205b, a red pixel 205r, a green pixel 205g, and a black matrix 205bm.

[0493] As the material for the substrate 204, for example, the same material as the aforementioned chip substrate 106 can be used. A p-well layer 206 is formed on the surface of the substrate 204. Light-receiving elements 201 are arranged in a square lattice pattern within the p-well layer 206. The light-receiving elements 201 include an n-type layer and generate and accumulate signal charges through photoelectric conversion.

[0494] On one side of the light-receiving element 201, a vertical transfer path 208 comprising an n-type layer is formed via a readout gate portion 207 on the surface of the p-well layer 206. Furthermore, on the other side of the light-receiving element 201, a vertical transfer path 208 for an adjacent pixel is formed via an element isolation region 209 comprising a p-type layer. The readout gate portion 207 serves as a channel region for reading signal charge accumulated in the light-receiving element 201 to the vertical transfer path 208.

[0495] A gate insulating film 210 composed of an ONO (Oxide-Nitride-Oxide) film is formed on the surface of the substrate 204. A vertical transfer electrode 211 composed of polycrystalline silicon or amorphous silicon is formed on this gate insulating film 210, covering the vertical transfer path 208, the readout gate portion 207, and approximately directly above the element isolation region 209. The vertical transfer electrode 211 functions as a drive electrode that drives the vertical transfer path 208 to transfer charge, and as a readout electrode that drives the readout gate portion 207 to read out signal charge. The signal charge is sequentially transferred from the vertical transfer path 208 to the horizontal transfer path and output portion (floating diffusion amplifier) ​​(not shown), where it is then output as a voltage signal.

[0496] A light shielding film 212 is formed on the vertical transfer electrode 211 to cover the surface thereof. The light shielding film 212 has an opening directly above the light receiving element 201 and shields the remaining area from light. The cured film of the present invention can be used as the light shielding film 212.

[0497] A transparent intermediate layer including an insulating film 213 made of BPSG (borophosphosilicate glass), an insulating film (passivation film) 214 made of P-SiN, and a planarizing film 215 made of a transparent resin or the like is provided on the light shielding film 212. The color filter 202 is formed on the intermediate layer.

[0498] [Image Display Device]

[0499] The image display device of the present invention includes the cured film of the present invention.

[0500] As an embodiment in which an image display device has a cured film, for example, a color filter formed using the cured film of the present invention is used in an image display device. The color filter may include a black matrix.

[0501] Next, a black matrix and a color filter including the black matrix will be described. Furthermore, a liquid crystal display device including such a color filter will be described as a specific example of an image display device.

[0502] Black Matrix

[0503] The cured film of the present invention is preferably also contained in a black matrix. A black matrix may be contained in image display devices such as color filters, solid-state imaging elements, and liquid crystal display devices.

[0504] Examples of the black matrix include the black matrix described above; a black edge portion provided at the periphery of an image display device such as a liquid crystal display; black grid-like and / or stripe-like portions between red, blue, and green pixels; and black dot-like and / or linear patterns used to shield TFTs (thin film field-effect transistors). The definition of the black matrix is ​​described, for example, in "Dictionary of Terms for Liquid Crystal Display Manufacturing Equipment," 2nd edition, by Taihei Kanno, Nikkan Kogyo Shimbun, Ltd., 1996, p. 64.

[0505] In order to improve the display contrast, and in the case of a liquid crystal display device using an active matrix drive method of thin film field effect transistors (TFT), to prevent the degradation of image quality caused by current leakage due to light, the black matrix preferably has a high light-shielding property (measured in optical density OD of 3 or more).

[0506] As a method for producing a black matrix, for example, it can be produced using the same method as the method for producing the above-mentioned cured film. Specifically, a composition layer can be formed by applying the composition on a substrate, and then exposing and developing it to produce a patterned cured film (black matrix). In addition, the film thickness of the cured film used as the black matrix is ​​preferably 0.1 to 4.0 μm.

[0507] The material of the substrate preferably has a transmittance of 80% or greater for visible light (wavelength 400-800 nm). Examples of such materials include glasses such as soda-lime glass, alkali-free glass, quartz glass, and borosilicate glass; and plastics such as polyester resins and polyolefin resins. From the perspective of chemical resistance and heat resistance, alkali-free glass and quartz glass are preferred.

[0508] Color Filters

[0509] The cured film of the present invention is also preferably included in a color filter.

[0510] Examples of color filters comprising a cured film include a color filter comprising a substrate and red, green, and blue colored pixels (cured film) formed on the substrate. Alternatively, the color filter may comprise a substrate, the black matrix, and red, green, and blue colored pixels formed in openings of the black matrix formed on the substrate.

[0511] The color filter including the black matrix can be manufactured by the following method, for example.

[0512] First, a coating film (composition layer) of a composition containing a coloring material corresponding to each colored pixel of a color filter is formed in the openings of a patterned black matrix formed on a substrate.

[0513] Next, the composition layer is exposed through a photomask having a pattern corresponding to the openings of the black matrix. After developing to remove the unexposed portions, the layer is baked to form colored pixels in the openings of the black matrix. For example, by performing this series of operations using a composition containing red, green, and blue pigments, a color filter having red, green, and blue pixels can be manufactured.

[0514] [Liquid Crystal Display Device]

[0515] The cured film of the present invention is also preferably included in a liquid crystal display device. As an embodiment in which a liquid crystal display device includes a cured film, an embodiment including the color filter described above can be given.

[0518] Examples of liquid crystal display devices include those described in "Electronic Display Devices (written by Akio Sasaki, published by Kogyo Chosakai Publishing Co., Ltd. in 1990)" and "Display Devices (written by Junsho Ibuki, published by Sangyotosyo Inc. in 1989)." Furthermore, examples include those described in "Next Generation Liquid Crystal Display Technology (edited by Tatsuo Uchida, published by Kogyo Chosakai Publishing Co., Ltd. in 1994)."

[0519] [Infrared sensor]

[0520] The cured film of the present invention is preferably also included in an infrared sensor.

[0521] use Figure 3 The infrared sensor of the above-mentioned embodiment will be described. Figure 3 It is a schematic cross-sectional view showing a configuration example of an infrared sensor including the cured film of the present invention. Figure 3 The infrared sensor 300 shown in FIG. 1 includes a solid-state imaging element 310 .

[0522] The imaging area provided on the solid-state imaging element 310 is formed by combining an infrared absorption filter 311 and a color filter 312 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0523] The infrared absorption filter 311 is a film that transmits light in the visible light region (for example, light with a wavelength of 400 to 700 nm) and blocks light in the infrared region (for example, light with a wavelength of 800 to 1300 nm, preferably light with a wavelength of 900 to 1200 nm, and more preferably light with a wavelength of 900 to 1000 nm). A cured film containing an infrared absorber (the form of the infrared absorber is as described above) can be used as a colorant.

[0524] The color filter 312 is a color filter formed with pixels that transmit and absorb specific wavelengths of light in the visible light region. For example, a color filter formed with red (R), green (G), and blue (B) pixels is used, and its form is as described above.

[0525] A resin film 314 (for example, a transparent resin film) capable of transmitting light having a wavelength that has passed through the infrared transmission filter 313 is disposed between the infrared transmission filter 313 and the solid-state imaging element 310 .

[0526] The infrared transmission filter 313 has visible light shielding properties and transmits infrared light of a specific wavelength. The cured film of the present invention containing a colorant that absorbs light in the visible light range (e.g., a perylene compound and / or a bisbenzofuranone compound) and an infrared absorber (e.g., a pyrrolopyrrole compound, a phthalocyanine compound, a naphthalocyanine compound, and a polymethine compound) can be used. For example, the infrared transmission filter 313 preferably blocks light with a wavelength of 400 to 830 nm while transmitting light with a wavelength of 900 to 1300 nm.

[0527] A microlens 315 is disposed on the incident light hν side of the color filter 312 and the infrared transmission filter 313. A planarization film 316 is formed so as to cover the microlens 315.

[0528] exist Figure 3 In the illustrated embodiment, the resin film 314 is provided, but the infrared transmission filter 313 may be formed instead of the resin film 314 . That is, the infrared transmission filter 313 may be formed on the solid-state imaging element 310 .

[0529] And, in Figure 3 In the illustrated embodiment, the film thickness of the color filter 312 and the film thickness of the infrared transmission filter 313 are the same, but the film thicknesses of the two may be different.

[0530] And, in Figure 3 In the form shown, the color filter 312 is arranged on the side closer to the incident light hν than the infrared absorption filter 311, but the order of the infrared absorption filter 311 and the color filter 312 can also be reversed, and the infrared absorption filter 311 can be arranged on the side closer to the incident light hν than the color filter 312.

[0531] And, in Figure 3 In the illustrated embodiment, the infrared absorption filter 311 and the color filter 312 are stacked adjacent to each other. However, the two filters do not necessarily need to be adjacent; another layer may be provided between them. The cured film of the present invention can be used as a light-shielding film on the ends and / or sides of the surface of the infrared absorption filter 311. Furthermore, when used on the inner walls of an infrared sensor device, it prevents internal reflection and / or unwanted light from entering the light-receiving portion, thereby improving sensitivity.

[0532] This infrared sensor simultaneously captures image information, enabling motion sensing, such as identifying the object being sensed. Furthermore, since it can acquire distance information, it can also capture images that include 3D information. Furthermore, this infrared sensor can be used as a biometric authentication sensor.

[0533] Next, a solid-state imaging device to which the above-described infrared sensor is applied will be described.

[0534] The solid-state imaging device includes a lens optical system, a solid-state imaging element, an infrared light-emitting diode, etc. For the configuration of the solid-state imaging device, reference can be made to paragraphs 0032 to 0036 of Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2011-233983, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

[0535] [Headlamp unit]

[0539] like Figure 5 As shown, the light shielding portion 14 includes a base 20 and a light shielding film 22 .

[0540] Light-shielding film 22 is formed with openings 23 for illuminating light emitted from light source 12 in a specific pattern. The light distribution pattern emitted from lens 16 is determined by the shape of openings 23 in light-shielding film 22. Lens 16 projects light L from light source 12 that has passed through light-shielding portion 14. As long as a specific light distribution pattern can be emitted from light source 12, lens 16 is not essential. The lens 16 can be appropriately determined based on the irradiation distance and range of light L.

[0541] The structure of the base 20 is not particularly limited as long as it can hold the light shielding film 22 , but is preferably not deformed by heat from the light source 12 and is, for example, made of glass.

[0542] Figure 5 An example of a light distribution pattern is shown in FIG, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0543] Furthermore, the number of light sources 12 is not limited to one; for example, they may be arranged in a row or in a matrix. When multiple light sources are provided, for example, one light shielding portion 14 may be provided for each light source 12. In this case, the light shielding films 22 of the multiple light shielding portions 14 may all have the same pattern or different patterns.

[0544] The light distribution pattern based on the pattern of the light shielding film 22 will be described.

[0545] Figure 6 is a schematic diagram showing an example of a light distribution pattern by a headlamp unit. Figure 7 : is a schematic diagram showing another example of a light distribution pattern based on a headlamp unit. Figure 6 The light distribution pattern 30 shown in Figure 7 The light distribution patterns 32 shown in FIG. 3 all represent areas irradiated with light. Figure 6 The area 31 and Figure 7 In the case where the area 31 shown in FIG. 1 is not provided with the light shielding film 22, it indicates that the light source 12 (reference Figure 4 ) irradiated area.

[0546] By the pattern of the light shielding film 22, for example, Figure 6 As shown in the light distribution pattern 30 shown in FIG, the light intensity drops sharply at the edge 30a. Figure 6 The light distribution pattern 30 shown in FIG. 1 is a pattern in which light is not irradiated to oncoming vehicles when the vehicle is traveling on the left side, for example.

[0547] And, as Figure 7 As shown in the light distribution pattern 32, it is also possible to remove Figure 6 In this case, the light distribution pattern 30 is also a part of the pattern shown in FIG. Figure 6 Similar to the light distribution pattern 30 shown in FIG, the light intensity drops sharply at edge 32a, resulting in a pattern that prevents oncoming vehicles from receiving light when driving on the left. Furthermore, the light intensity also drops sharply at notch 33. Therefore, the area corresponding to notch 33 can display symbols indicating road conditions such as curves, uphill slopes, and downhill slopes. This improves nighttime driving safety.

[0548] The light shielding portion 14 is not limited to being fixedly disposed between the light source 12 and the lens 16 , but may be provided between the light source 12 and the lens 16 as needed by a driving mechanism (not shown) to obtain a specific light distribution pattern.

[0549] Furthermore, the light shielding portion 14 may be a light shielding member capable of shielding light from the light source 12. In this case, it may be provided between the light source 12 and the lens 16 as needed by a driving mechanism (not shown) to obtain a specific light distribution pattern.

[0550] The cured film of the present invention is also preferably used as a light-shielding film for fingerprint authentication. The light-shielding film preferably has a plurality of pores (holes) for transmitting light. The pores may be filled with a light-transmitting material.

The materials, usage amounts, ratios, processing contents and processing steps etc. shown in the following examples can be appropriately changed as long as they do not depart from the purpose of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of the present invention should not be interpreted restrictively by the examples shown below. In addition, the content in the table, as long as it is not particularly specified, represents a mass benchmark.

[0553] [Synthesis Example 1: Synthesis of polysiloxane compound (S-1)]

[0554] A mixed solution of 30 parts by mass of the silane coupling agent (A-1) listed in Table 1 and 70 parts by mass of ethanol was stirred at room temperature, and 15 parts by mass of a 0.1% by mass aqueous nitric acid solution was added thereto over 1 hour. The mixture was then stirred at 50°C for 24 hours. The reaction solution was concentrated under reduced pressure using an evaporator to obtain 27 parts by mass of a polysiloxane compound (S-1).

[0555] [Synthesis Examples 2 to 25: Synthesis of Polysiloxane Compounds (S-2) to (S-25)]

[0556] Polysiloxane compounds (S-2) to (S-25) were obtained by the same operation as in Synthesis Example 1 except that the silane coupling agents listed in Table 1 or Table 2 were used. Table 3 shows the physical properties.

[0563] [Table 3]

[0564]

[0565] [Synthesis Example 27: Synthesis of Surface-Modified Particles (L-1)]

[0566] To a solution obtained by mixing 100 parts by mass of a dispersion (X-1) containing unmodified particles (aqueous dispersion of silica particles (manufactured by Nissan Chemical Industries, LTD., SNOWTEX ST-O-40, solid content concentration 40% by mass)), 100 parts by mass of ethanol and 2 parts by mass of a surface modifier (silane coupling agent (A-1)), 1% by mass of 1% aqueous ammonia was added, and the mixture was stirred at 25°C for 72 hours. The obtained solution was concentrated to 100 parts by mass. The solution was centrifuged (10,000 rotations per minute) and the supernatant was discarded. 1,000 parts by mass of 1-methoxy-2-propanol was added to the precipitate, centrifuged again, and the supernatant was removed. The obtained precipitate was dried under reduced pressure at 50°C for 24 hours to obtain 39 parts by mass of surface-modified particles (L-1).

[0567] (Analysis of Residual Amount of Surface Modifier and Its Condensate (Polysiloxane) in Surface Modified Particles)

[0568] 1 part by mass of the surface modified particles (L-1) obtained was added to 9 parts by mass of 1-methoxy-2-propanol and dispersed by ultrasonication for 1 hour. Then, a centrifugal separation operation was performed to concentrate the obtained supernatant. 29 Si NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) observation revealed that the peak value was below the detection limit (0.1 mass %).

[0569] [Synthesis Examples 27 to 60: Synthesis of Surface-Modified Particles (L-1) to (L-34)]

[0570] Surface-modified particles (L-1) to (L-34) were synthesized by the same procedures as in Synthesis Example 1, except that the dispersion and surface modifier (silane coupling agent) containing the unmodified particles listed in Table 4 were used. Furthermore, the residual amount of the surface modifier and its condensate (polysiloxane) in each surface-modified particle was analyzed in the same manner as for the surface-modified particle (L-1). The peak values ​​were all below the detection limit (0.1% by mass).

[0573] [Table 4]

[0574]

[0575] [Synthesis Example 61: Synthesis of Unmodified Particles X-5 for Comparative Example]

[0576] The same operation was carried out as in Synthesis Example 27, except that the silane coupling agent (A-1) was not added, to obtain 38 parts by mass of unmodified particles X-5.

[0577] [Examples 1-1 to 1-43 and Comparative Examples 1-1 to 1-3: Preparation and Evaluation of Dispersions of Surface-Modified Particles]

[0578] 15 parts by mass of surface-modified particles (L-1), 100 parts by mass of dehydrated 1-methoxy-2-propanol, and polysiloxane (type and amount listed in Table 5) were added and ultrasonic dispersion was performed for 10 hours. The water content of the resulting dispersion was measured, and water was added to adjust the water content shown in Table 5.

[0579] In Table 5, the polysiloxane content (polysiloxane content) was calculated based on the following formula: The water content is the mass % of water relative to the total mass of the dispersion.

[0580] Polysiloxane content (%) = 100 × (amount of polysiloxane added) / {(amount of surface-modified particles or unmodified particles added) + (amount of polysiloxane added)}

[0581] <Evaluation of storage stability>

[0582] The storage stability of the obtained dispersion was confirmed by viscosity measurement after forced heating at 45°C for 60 days. The viscosity of the dispersion was measured using a viscometer (TV-22 viscometer, cone-plate type, manufactured by TOKI SANGYO CO., LTD.). The viscosity of the dispersion was measured while adjusting the temperature of the dispersion to 25°C.

[0583] A: The change rate of the dispersion viscosity is less than 2%.

[0584] B: The change rate of the viscosity of the dispersion is 2% or more and less than 5%.

[0585] C: The change rate of the viscosity of the dispersion is 5% or more and less than 8%.

[0586] D: The change rate of the viscosity of the dispersion liquid is 8% or more and less than 10%.

[0587] E: The change rate of the dispersion viscosity is 10% or more.

[0588] [Table 5]

[0589]

[0590] As shown in Table 5, the dispersions containing surface-modified particles and polysiloxane and having a polysiloxane content of 1 to 39% by mass in the present invention all exhibited excellent storage stability (Examples).

[0591] From the comparison between Example 1-16 and Examples 1-35 and 1-36, the groups contained in the modified portion of the surface-modified particles (i.e., R A1 Or R in formula A2 A2 ) and the functional groups contained in the units constituting the siloxane (ie, R B1 Or R in formula B2 B2 ) under the same conditions (Examples 1-16), it shows more excellent storage stability.

[0592] Comparison of Example 1-16 with Examples 1-37 and 1-38 shows that when the polysiloxane content is within the range of 1 to 25% by mass (Example 1-16), even better storage stability is demonstrated. Comparison of Example 1-39 with Example 1-41 and of Example 1-35 with Example 1-42 also confirms the same trend.

[0593] Comparison of Example 1-16 with Examples 1-39 and 1-40 shows that when the moisture content is within the range of 0.1 to 3 mass % (Example 1-16), even better storage stability is exhibited. A similar trend can also be observed in comparison of Example 1-42 with Example 1-43.

[0594] On the other hand, when the polysiloxane content was greater than 39% by mass (Comparative Example 1-1), when no polysiloxane was contained (Comparative Example 1-2), and when unmodified particles were used (Comparative Example 1-3), poor storage stability was exhibited.

[0621]

[0622] <Evaluation of storage stability>

[0623] The storage stability of the curable composition was evaluated by the same procedure and evaluation criteria as those for the evaluation of storage stability using the above dispersion, except that the curable composition obtained as described above was used.

[0624] [Table 6]

[0625]

[0626] As shown in Table 6, it was confirmed that the evaluation results of the storage stability of the curable composition showed the same tendency as that of the above-mentioned dispersion.

[0627] <Evaluation of Cured Film>

[0628] A CT-4000L solution (manufactured by FUJIFILM Electronic Materials Co., Ltd.; clear primer) was applied to a 10 cm×10 cm glass substrate to a dry film thickness of 0.1 μm, dried to form a transparent film, and then heated at 220° C. for 5 minutes.

[0629] Next, the curable composition (E-1) was applied by spin coating so that the film thickness after pre-baking was 0.6 μm. Then, pre-baking was performed at 100° C. for 2 minutes and post-baking was performed at 200° C. for 3 minutes using a hot plate.

[0630] The surface morphology of the obtained cured film was good, with no haze observed. Furthermore, a peel test (evaluation was performed by applying a transparent tape (manufactured by NICHIBAN CO., LTD., a registered trademark) to the film and then peeling it off) revealed that no peeling or loss of the cured film was observed, and a tough film was formed.

[0631] Similar procedures and evaluations were performed using curable compositions (E-2) to (E-34), resulting in similarly strong films. In particular, the cured films of compositions (E-16) to (E-19), (E-25) to (E-29), (E-31), (E-33), and (E-34) containing fluoroalkyl or polysiloxane structures exhibited smooth and excellent surface morphology after tape removal.

[0632] On the other hand, when curable compositions (E-35) to (E-43) were used, cured films having good surface morphology were obtained, but in the peeling test, a portion of the cured film was lost or peeled off.

[0633] In addition, in the curable compositions (E-44) to (E-46) of the comparative examples, haze was observed on the coating surface morphology, and in the peel test, peeling and loss of the cured film were observed more frequently than when the curable compositions (E-35) to (E-43) were used.

[0634] [Examples 3-1 to 3-47 and Comparative Examples 3-1 to 3-3: Preparation of Coloring Compositions]

[0635] <Preparation of Pigment Dispersion>

The dispersion was then prepared using a high-pressure disperser NANO-3000-10 (manufactured by Nippon BEE Co., Ltd.) equipped with a pressure reducing mechanism at 2000 kg / cm 3 The dispersion was carried out at a flow rate of 500 g / min under a pressure of 1000 rpm.

[0655] A colored composition was prepared by mixing the following components: The dispersion, pigment dispersion, resin, polymerizable compound, and photopolymerization initiator used the components listed in Table 8.

[0656] Dispersion liquid: 10 parts by mass

[0665] [Chemical Formula 19]

[0666]

[0667] <Evaluation of storage stability>

[0668] The storage stability of the curable composition was evaluated by the same procedure and evaluation criteria as those for the evaluation of the storage stability using the above dispersion, except that the colored composition obtained as described above was used.

[0669] [Table 8]

[0670]

[0671] As shown in Table 8, the evaluation results of the storage stability of the coloring composition showed the same tendency as the above-mentioned dispersion. In Example 3-16, even when the pigment was changed from titanium oxynitride to zirconium nitride, the same results as those of Example 3-16 were obtained.

[0672] <Evaluation of Patterned Cured Film>

[0673] A CT-4000L solution (manufactured by FUJIFILM Electronic Materials Co., Ltd.; clear primer) was applied to a silicon wafer to a dry film thickness of 0.1 μm, dried to form a transparent film, and then heated at 220° C. for 5 minutes.

[0674] Next, the coloring composition (F-1) was applied by spin coating so that the film thickness after prebaking would be 0.6 μm. Next, prebaking was performed at 100° C. for 2 minutes using a hot plate.

[0675] Next, the film was exposed at 500 mJ / cm using an i-ray stepper exposure apparatus FPA-3000i5+ (manufactured by Canon Inc.) through a mask pattern in which square pixels with a side of 2.0 μm were arranged in a 4 mm × 3 mm area on the substrate. 2 The exposed composition layer was then placed on a horizontal rotating table in a spin / spray developer (DW-30, manufactured by Chemitronics Co., Ltd.) and subjected to flood development at 23°C for 60 seconds using a CD-2000 (manufactured by FUJIFILM Electronic Materials Co., Ltd.). The silicon wafer substrate was rotated at 50 rpm by a rotating device while being rinsed with pure water supplied in a shower from above the center of rotation through a spray nozzle. The resulting pattern was well-shaped and free of defects.

[0676] When the same evaluation was performed using compositions (F-2) to (F-50), compositions (F-2) to (F-34) and (F-39) to (F-47) obtained good patterns similar to (F-2).

[0677] On the other hand, in (F-35) to (F-38) and (F-48) to (F-50) using a non-oxime initiator as the photopolymerization initiator, a portion of the pattern was observed to be defective.

[0678] Furthermore, relatively more pattern defects were observed in (F-48) to (F-50) than in the cases where the colored compositions (F-35) to (F-38) were used, and the extent of these defects became problematic in practical use.

[0679] Among the colored compositions, compositions (F-16) to (F-19), (F-25) to (F-27), (F-31), (F-33), and (F-34) containing a group having a fluoroalkyl group or a polysiloxane structure and having unmodified particles of silica have particularly low reflectance compared to other cured films, and are found to be useful.

[0680] <Evaluation of transmittance and reflectance>

[0681] Black resist materials SK-9010 (product name) and SK-7000 (product name) manufactured by FUJIFILM Electronic Materials Co., Ltd. and dispersion D-25 of Examples 1 to 25 were mixed as shown in Table 9 to obtain Black Resist-1 to Black Resist-4.

[0682] [Table 9]

[0683]

[0684] Black resist-1 to black resist-4 were applied to a 10 cm × 10 cm glass substrate to the film thickness listed in Table 10 by adjusting the rotation speed and then heated for 120 seconds on a hot plate at 100°C (pre-baking). Subsequently, a UV irradiation exposure apparatus (UPE-1255ML) manufactured by USHIO LIGHTING, INC. was used at a rate of 1000 mJ / cm 2 The film was exposed to an exposure dose of 100 nm and then subjected to additional heat treatment (post-baking) using a hot plate at 220° C., thereby obtaining black resist films 1 to 6. The transmission spectra and reflection spectra of the obtained black resist films 1 to 6 were measured using a UV-visible near-infrared spectrophotometer V-7200 manufactured by JASCO Corporation. The results are shown in FIG. Figures 8 to 13 middle.

[0685] [Table 10]

[0686]

[0687] like Figures 8 to 10 As shown, it was confirmed that the black resist film formed using the black resist containing the dispersion liquid D-25 of Example 1-25 had high light-shielding properties, similarly to the black resist film formed without adding the dispersion liquid D-25.

[0688] And, as Figures 11 to 13 As shown, it was confirmed that the black resist film formed using the black resist containing the dispersion D-25 of Example 1-25 can reduce the reflectivity.

[0689] Optical fingerprint authentication applications I

[0690] On the fingerprint authentication device substrate, SW-7001 (product name) manufactured by FUJIFILM Electronic Materials Co., Ltd. was spin-coated to a film thickness of 3.5 μm. Using an i-ray stepper exposure device FPA-3000i5+ (manufactured by Canon Inc.), exposure was performed through an appropriate mask. Next, development was performed using a developing device (Act-8 manufactured by Tokyo Electron Limited.). A 0.3% aqueous solution of tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) was used in the developer, and spin-capping immersion development was performed at 23°C for 60 seconds. Then, a pure water spin spray was used for rinsing, and post-baking was performed at 200°C for 5 minutes to produce a transparent columnar structure with a diameter of 3.5 μm.

[0691] Then, the black resist-1 was applied to a thickness of 1 μm. Then, exposure, development, and post-baking were performed appropriately to form a structure A (refer to FIG. 1 ) in which the uppermost portion of the transparent columnar structure was developed and the rest was coated with a black resist film. Figure 14 and Figure 15 ).like Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown, a transparent columnar structure 403 and a black structure 410 (structure A) having a black resist film 405 are formed on a fingerprint authentication device substrate 401 .

[0692] By using the structure A as a light-shielding film for fingerprint authentication, the fingerprint authentication accuracy can be improved.

[0693] When black resists-2 to 4 are used instead of black resist-1, the fingerprint authentication accuracy can also be improved.

[0694] Optical fingerprint authentication applications II

[0695] In the same manner as in the above-mentioned "Application I for Optical Fingerprint Authentication", columnar structures with a diameter of 3.5 μm were manufactured on a fingerprint authentication device substrate. Then, in order to fill the spaces between the columnar structures, the above-mentioned black resist-1 was applied with a thickness of 3.7 μm. Then, exposure, development, and post-baking were performed as appropriate to form a structure B (refer to FIG. 1 ) in which transparent columnar structures were filled on the black resist film. Figure 16 and Figure 17 ).like Figure 16 and Figure 17 As shown, a black structure 510 (structure B) including a transparent columnar structure 503 and a black resist film 505 is formed on a fingerprint authentication device substrate 501 .

[0696] By using the structure B as a light-shielding film for fingerprint authentication, the fingerprint authentication accuracy can be improved.

[0697] When black resists-2 to 4 are used instead of black resist-1, the fingerprint authentication accuracy can also be improved.
