AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies have limitations in reducing the reflectivity of organic light-emitting display devices, especially around 550nm, where the reflectivity is difficult to reduce effectively, affecting visibility.
A photosensitive resin composition containing a specific chemical formula is used. This composition consists of a binder resin, dye, pigment, reactive unsaturated compound, and photoinitiator. A light-shielding layer is formed through exposure and development steps, and the reflectivity is reduced by utilizing the maximum absorption wavelength of the dye in the range of 500 nm to 620 nm.
It achieves an optical density of over 1 per 1μm film thickness at a wavelength of 550nm and a reflectivity of less than 9%, thereby improving the visibility of the display device.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a photosensitive resin composition that includes dyes in addition to conventionally used black and black combination pigments, thereby effectively reducing reflectivity, and a coloring and light-blocking layer utilizing the same. Background Technology
[0002] Flat panel displays widely utilize liquid crystal displays (LCDs) and organic light-emitting displays (OLEDs). In particular, OLEDs offer advantages such as low power consumption, fast response time, high color reproduction rate, high brightness, and wide viewing angle.
[0003] The purpose of using a polarizing film in the organic light-emitting display device is to block the light reflected from the panel after incident external light. Its drawback is that, due to its lack of bending characteristics, it is not suitable for use in flexible devices.
[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, previous suggestions have included using color filters, a black matrix, and forming a light-shielding inorganic film on the upper substrate. However, these methods have limitations in achieving the desired level of anti-reflection effect and do not specifically provide a method to replace the polarizing film.
[0005] In addition, colored light-shielding layers, particularly black light-shielding layers, are used in liquid crystal display devices to prevent color interference between red, green, and blue color filters, thereby improving image quality. Recently, organic light-emitting displays have also been researching the use of such colored light-shielding layers to achieve the same purpose and improve image visibility through low reflectivity.
[0006] When manufacturing the light-shielding layer, carbon black and organic pigments are used as black colorants. Due to their isodispersed application, the pigment dispersion is mixed with other compositions to form a pattern.
[0007] At this point, multiple black or black-displaying combination pigments are used. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to study how to effectively reduce the reflectivity around 550nm, as the area around 550nm has the greatest impact on visibility.

[0081] Invention Effects
[0082] In one embodiment of the photosensitive resin composition of the present invention, a polymer comprising repeating units as shown in chemical formula (1) contains chemical formula (C) and chemical formula (D) in a ratio of 1:9 to 9:1, and has a relatively nonlinear structure compared to a polymer containing only one of the structures of chemical formula (C) or chemical formula (D). Therefore, the polymer comprising repeating units as shown in chemical formula (1) exhibits better dye adsorption after exposure and development steps compared to a polymer containing only one of the structures of chemical formula (C) or chemical formula (D), thereby achieving high optical density and low reflectivity.
[0083] Furthermore, the photosensitive resin composition of the present invention, in addition to the black pigment, also contains the dye represented by the chemical formula (2). The dye represented by the chemical formula (2) has a maximum absorption wavelength in the range of 500 nm to 620 nm, thereby effectively reducing the reflectivity near 550 nm, which has the greatest impact on visibility.
[0084] Thus, according to the present invention, the visibility of the display device utilizing the photosensitive resin composition is improved. Detailed Implementation
[0085] An embodiment of the photosensitive resin composition of the present invention comprises: a binder resin including repeating units represented by the following chemical formula (1); a dye represented by the following chemical formula (2); a pigment; a reactive unsaturated compound; a photoinitiator; and a solvent.

[0088] Chemical formula (2):
[0089]
[0090] In describing this invention, detailed descriptions of related well-known structures or functions may be omitted if they are considered to obscure the essence of the invention. When the invention uses terms such as "comprising," "having," or "forming," other parts may be added unless "only" is used. When a constituent element is expressed in the singular, it includes cases expressed in the plural unless specifically stated otherwise.
[0091] Furthermore, in describing the constituent elements of the present invention, terms such as first, second, A, B, (a), and (b) may be used. These terms are only used to distinguish its constituent elements from other constituent elements, and the nature, order, sequence, or number of the constituent elements are not limited by the terms.
[0092] When describing the positional relationship of constituent elements, and mentioning that two or more constituent elements achieve "connection," "combination," or "access," it should be understood that two or more constituent elements can be directly "connected," "combined," or "accessed," but they can also be further "included" by two or more constituent elements and other constituent elements to achieve "connection," "combination," or "access." Among these, other constituent elements can include one or more of the two or more constituent elements that are mutually "connected," "combined," or "accessed."
[0093] Furthermore, when a component such as a layer, membrane, region, or plate is located "on" or "above" another component, it should be understood that this includes not only being located "directly above" another component, but also having another component in between. Conversely, when a component is located "directly above" another part, it should be understood that there is no other part in between.
[0094] When describing time-flow relationships related to constituent elements, work methods, or manufacturing methods, such as describing time sequence relationships or process sequence relationships like "after," "next," "then," or "before," since "immediately" or "directly" is not used, discontinuous situations can be further included.
[0095] In addition, when referring to the numerical values of constituent elements or their corresponding information, even if not explicitly stated separately, it should be interpreted that the numerical values or their corresponding information include the range of errors caused by various factors (e.g., engineering factors, internal or external impacts, noise).
[0096] Unless otherwise described, the terminology used in this specification and the appended claims is as follows without departing from the spirit of the invention.
[0097] Unless otherwise stated, the terms “halo” or “halogen” as used in this application include fluorine (F), fluorine (Cl), bromine (Br) and iodine (I).
[0098] Unless otherwise stated, the term "alkyl" or "alkyl group" as used herein refers to a radical containing 1 to 60 carbons linked by a single bond, representing a free radical of a saturated aliphatic functional group, such as a straight-chain alkyl group, a branched alkyl group, a cycloalkyl (alicyclic) group, an alkyl-substituted cycloalkyl group, or a cycloalkyl-substituted alkyl group.
[0099] Unless otherwise stated, the terms “haloalkyl group” or “halogenalkyl group” as used in this application refer to halogen-substituted alkyl groups.
[0100] Unless otherwise stated, the terms “alkenyl” or “alkynyl” as used herein have double or triple bonds, contain straight or side-chain groups, and have 2 to 60 carbons, but are not limited thereto.
[0101] Unless otherwise stated, the term "cycloalkyl" as used in this application refers to a cyclic alkane having 3 to 60 carbons, but is not limited thereto.
[0102] As used in this application, the term "alkoxy group" or "alkyloxy group" refers to an alkyl group that bonds to an oxygen radical and has 1 to 60 carbons unless otherwise described, but is not limited thereto.
[0103] As used in this application, the terms "alkenoxyl group", "alkenoxyl group", "alkenyloxyl group" or "alkenyloxyl group" refer to an alkenyl group that binds oxygen free radicals and, unless otherwise described, has 2 to 60 carbons, but are not limited thereto.
[0104] Unless otherwise stated, the terms "aryl group" and "arylenel group" as used in this application each have 6 to 60 carbons, but are not limited thereto. In this application, aryl group or arylenel group includes monocyclic, cyclic polymeric, and fused polycyclic compounds. For example, the aryl group may include phenyl group, monovalent functional groups of biphenyl, monovalent functional groups of naphthalene, fluorenyl group, and substituted fluorenyl group. The arylenel group may include fluorenylene group and substituted fluorenylene group.
[0105] As used in this application, the term "ring assemblies" refers to two or more ring systems (monocyclic or fused ring systems) directly linked by single or double bonds, indicating that the number of directly linked rings is less than the total number of ring systems contained in the compound. Ring assemblies can be composed of the same or different ring systems directly linked by single or double bonds.
[0106] In this application, the aryl group includes cyclic polymers; therefore, the aryl group includes biphenyl and terphenyl compounds, which are monocyclic aromatic compounds with benzene rings linked by single bonds. Furthermore, the aryl group also includes compounds with aromatic ring systems fused to aromatic monocyclic rings and linked by single bonds; therefore, for example, it also includes compounds with aromatic ring systems fused to benzene rings, i.e., fluorene, linked by single bonds.
[0107] As used in this application, the term "fused polycyclic system" refers to a ring structure that shares at least two atoms and is fused together, including: a morphology of fused two or more hydrocarbon ring systems and a morphology of fused at least one heterocyclic system containing at least one heteroatom. The fused polycyclic system can be an aromatic ring, an aromatic heterocycle, an aliphatic ring, or a combination thereof. For example, the aryl group can be a naphthalenyl group, a phenanthrenyl group, a fluorenyl group, etc., but is not limited thereto.
[0108] The term "spiro compound" as used in this application has the connotation of "spiro union," which refers to a connection formed by two rings sharing only one atom. In this case, the atom shared by the two rings is called the "spiro union atom," and according to the number of spiro atoms contained in a compound, it is referred to as a "monospiro-", "dispiro-", or "trispiro-" compound.
[0109] Unless otherwise stated, the terms "fluorenyl group," "fluorenylene group," and "fluorene-triyl group" used in this application respectively indicate that R, R', R" and R'" are all monovalent, divalent, or trivalent functional groups of hydrogen. "Substituted fluorenyl group," "substituted fluorenylene group," or "substituted fluorene-triyl group" indicates that at least one of the substituents R, R', R" and R'" is a substituent other than hydrogen, including cases where R and R' are bonded to each other and together with the carbon atoms bonded thereto, form a spiro compound. In this specification, the terms fluorenyl group, fluorenylene group, and fluorene-triyl group are all referred to as fluorenyl group, regardless of monovalent, divalent, or trivalent valence.
[0110]
[0111] Furthermore, R, R', R" and R'" can independently represent an alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbons, an olefinic group having 1 to 20 carbons, an aryl group having 6 to 30 carbons, or a heterocyclyl group having 2 to 30 carbons. For example, the aryl group can be phenyl, biphenyl, naphthalene, anthracene, or phenanthrene. The group can be pyrrole, furan, thiophene, pyrazole, imidazole, triazole, pyridine, pyrimidone, pyridazine, pyrazine, triazine, indole, benzofuran, quinazoline, or quinoxaline. For example, the substituted fluorenyl group and fluorenylene group can be monovalent or divalent functional groups of 9,9-dimethylfluorene, 9,9-diphenylfluorene, and 9,9'-spirobi[9H-fluorene], respectively.
[0112] The term "heterocyclyl group" as used in this application includes not only aromatic rings such as "heteroaryl group" or "heteroarylenel group," but also non-aromatic rings, which, unless otherwise described, refer to rings containing one or more heteroatoms and having 2 to 60 carbon atoms, but are not limited thereto. Unless otherwise described, the term "heteroatom" as used in this application means N, O, S, P, or Si, and "heterocyclyl group" refers to monocyclic, cyclic polymer, fused polycyclic, or spiro compounds containing heteroatoms.
[0113] For example, "heterocyclyl group" can also replace cyclic carbon, including compounds containing heteroatom end groups such as SO2 and P=O.
[0114]
[0115] The term "ring" as used in this application includes monocyclic and polycyclic rings. Of course, hydrocarbon rings include heterocyclic rings containing at least one hetero atom and containing aromatic and non-aromatic rings.
[0116] As used in this application, the term "polycyclic" includes ring assemblies such as biphenyl and terphenyl, as well as fused polycyclic systems and spiro compounds, including not only aromatic but also non-aromatic compounds. Of course, hydrocarbon rings include heterocycles containing at least one hetero atom.
[0117] As used in this application, the term "cyclo group" refers to cyclic hydrocarbons other than aromatic hydrocarbons, including monocyclic, cyclic polymers, fused polycyclic systems, spiro compounds, etc., and unless otherwise described, it refers to a ring with 3 to 60 carbon atoms, but is not limited thereto. For example, the fused aromatic cyclobenzene and non-aromatic cyclohexane are also equivalent to an aliphatic ring.
[0118] Furthermore, when prefixes are used consecutively in naming, it indicates that the substituents are arranged in the order they are recorded. For example, aryl alkoxy group indicates an alkoxy group substituted with an aryl group, alkoxy carbonyl group indicates a carbonyl group substituted with an alkoxy group, and aryl carbonyl alkenyl group indicates an alkenyl group substituted with an aryl carbonyl group, where aryl carbonyl group is a carbonyl group substituted with an aryl group.
[0119] Furthermore, unless explicitly stated otherwise, in the terms “substituted” or “unsubstituted” used in this application, “substituted” means substituted by one or more substituents selected from C2-C3. 20 The group consisting of heterocyclyl groups, which is composed of C2-C 20 The group consisting of heterocyclyl groups contains at least one hetero atom selected from the group consisting of the following components: deuterium, halogen, amino group, nitrile group, nitro group, C1-C 20 Alkyl group, C1-C 20 alkoxy group, C1-C 20 alkylamine group, C1-C 20 alkylthiophene group, C6-C 20 aryl thiophene group, C2-C 20 alkenyl group, C2-C 20 alkinyl group, C3-C 20 cycloalkyl group, C6-C 20 aryl group, C6-C substituted with deuterium 20 Aryl group, C8-C 20 Aryl alkenyl group, silane group, boron group, germanium group, and O, N, S, Si, and P.
[0120] In this application, the 'functional group name' corresponding to the aryl group, arylenel group, heterocyclyl group, etc., as described in the examples of each label and its substituents can be recorded as 'functional group name reflecting valence' or as 'name of parent compound'. For example, 'phenanthrene' is an aryl group, and the name of the 'group' can be recorded according to valence, such as recording a monovalent 'group' as 'phenanthryl (group)' and a divalent 'group' as 'phenanthrylene (group)', etc. However, it is also possible to disregard valence and record it as the name of the parent compound 'phenanthrene'.
[0121] Similarly, pyrimidone can be written as 'pyrimidone' regardless of its valence, or, if monovalent, as pyrimidinyl (group), and if divalent, as the name of the group with the corresponding valence, such as pyrimidinylene (group). Therefore, in this application, when the type of substituent is written as the name of the parent compound, it can represent an n-valent 'group' formed by the desorption of hydrogen atoms bonded to carbon atoms and / or heteroatoms of the parent compound.
[0122] Furthermore, in this specification, when listing compound names or substituent names, numbers or letters indicating positions may be omitted. For example, pyrido[4,3-d]pyrimidone may be listed as pyrido pyrimidone, benzo furan[2,3-d]pyrimidone as benzo furan pyrimidone, and 9,9-dimethyl-9H-fluorene as dimethylfluorene, etc. Therefore, benzo[g]quinoxaline or benzo[f]quinoxaline may both be listed as benzo quinoxaline.
[0123] Furthermore, unless otherwise stated, the chemical formulas used in this application are also subject to the definitions of substituents based on the following definitions of chemical formulas.
[0124]
[0125] When a is an integer of 0, it represents the substituent R. 1 This does not exist; that is, when a is 0, all carbons forming the benzene ring are bonded to hydrogen. In this case, the labeling of the hydrogens bonded to the carbons can be omitted, and the chemical formula or compound can be written. Furthermore, when a is an integer of 1, one substituent R... 1 It bonds to any carbon atom in the benzene ring. When a is an integer of 2 or 3, the bonding can be as follows. When a is an integer from 4 to 6, it can be bonded to the carbon atom in the benzene ring using a similar method. When a is an integer greater than 2, R... 1 They can be the same or different.
[0126]
[0127] Unless otherwise stated, ring formation means that adjacent groups bond together to form a monocyclic or fused polycyclic ring. Monocyclic rings and fused polycyclic rings include not only hydrocarbon rings but also heterocycles containing at least one heteroatom and may include aromatic and non-aromatic rings.
[0128] Furthermore, in this specification, unless otherwise stated, when referring to condensed rings, the number in 'number-condensed ring' indicates the number of condensed rings. For example, the morphology of three rings condensed together can be represented as a 3-condensed ring, such as anthracene, phenanthrene, benzoquinoxaline, etc.
[0129] Furthermore, unless otherwise stated, the term "bridged bicyclic compound" as used in this application refers to a compound in which two rings share three or more atoms to form a ring. In this case, the shared atoms may include carbon or heteroatoms.
[0130] In this application, organic electronic components refer to (a number of) components between an anode and a cathode, or organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) including (a number of) components located between an anode and a cathode and therebetween.
[0131] Furthermore, depending on the context, the display device in this application refers to organic electronic components, organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), and panels including them, or electronic devices including panels and circuitry. For example, electronic devices include all lighting devices, solar cells, portable or mobile terminals (e.g., smartphones, tablets, PDAs, electronic dictionaries, PMPs, etc.), navigation terminals, game consoles, various TVs, various computer monitors, etc., but are not limited thereto; any device of any form can be used as long as it includes the aforementioned components(s).
[0132] An embodiment of the photosensitive resin composition of the present invention comprises: an adhesive resin including repeating units of the following chemical formula (1), a dye represented by the following chemical formula (2), a reactive unsaturated compound, a pigment, an initiator, and a solvent.
[0133] The resin comprises repeating units of the structure shown in the chemical formula (1), which in the polymer chain contain structures represented by the following chemical formulas (C) and (D). Specifically, the polymer comprises repeating units represented by the chemical formula (1), which contain chemical formulas (C) and (D) in a ratio of 1:9 to 9:1, and has a relatively nonlinear structure compared to polymers that contain only one of the structures of chemical formula (C) or chemical formula (D).
[0134] Therefore, the polymer includes repeating units represented by chemical formula (1), which, compared to polymers containing only one of chemical formula (C) or chemical formula (D), has good dye adsorption after exposure and development steps, thereby achieving high optical density and low reflectivity.
[0135] Furthermore, the photosensitive resin composition of the present invention, in addition to the black pigment, also contains the dye represented by the chemical formula (2). The dye represented by the chemical formula (2) has a maximum absorption wavelength in the range of 500 nm to 620 nm, thereby effectively reducing the reflectivity near 550 nm, which has the greatest impact on visibility.
[0136] This improves the visibility of the display device utilizing the photosensitive resin composition according to the present invention.

[0220] The maximum absorption wavelength of the dye is in the range of 500 nm to 620 nm, more preferably in the wavelength range of 520 nm to 580 nm. When the maximum absorption wavelength of the dye is within the range described above, the display device using the photosensitive resin composition of the present invention will reduce the reflectivity due to external visible light, thereby improving visibility.
[0221] The dye content in the total amount of the photosensitive resin composition may be from 0.1% to 10% by weight, more preferably from 0.3% to 8% by weight. When the dye content is within the range described above, the curability and adhesion of the pattern are excellent, and the reflectivity at 550 nm wavelength can be reduced to improve the visibility of the display device.
[0222] (C) Pigment
[0223] The pigment can be one or more of organic and inorganic pigments. The pigment can be red, green, blue, yellow, black, etc.

[0226] For example, the blue pigments include: CI blue pigment 15:6, CI blue pigment 15, CI blue pigment 15:1, CI blue pigment 15:2, CI blue pigment 15:3, CI blue pigment 15:4, CI blue pigment 15:5, CI blue pigment 16, etc., copper phthalocyanine pigments.
[0227] For example, the yellow pigments include: isoindoline pigments such as CI yellow pigment 139, quinophthalone pigments such as CI yellow pigment 138, nickel composite pigments such as CI yellow pigment 150, etc.
[0228] For example, the black pigments mentioned include: lactam black, aniline black, perylene black, titanium black, carbon black, etc.
[0229] The pigments may be used alone or in combination of two or more, without being limited to any of them.
[0230] When a pattern layer formed using a photosensitive resin composition requires high light-blocking properties, the aforementioned black pigment can be used for effective light blocking. When using the aforementioned black pigment, it can also be used in conjunction with color correctors such as anthraquinone-based pigments, perylene-based pigments, phthalocyanine-based pigments, and azo-based pigments.
[0231] To disperse the pigment on the photosensitive resin composition, a dispersant may be used together. The pigment may be used after surface pretreatment with the dispersant, or it may be used after the dispersant is added together with the pigment during the preparation of the photosensitive resin composition.
[0232] The dispersant can be a nonionic dispersant, anionic dispersant, or a cationic dispersant. Specific examples of the dispersant include: polyalkylene glycol and its esters, polyoxyalkylene, alkylene oxide polyol ester additives, alcohol alkylene oxide additives, sulfonates, sulfonates, carboxylic acid esters, carboxylates, alkylene oxide alkylamide additives, alkylamines, etc., which can be used alone or in combination of two or more.
[0233] Commercially available products of the dispersant include, for example, BYK's DISPERBYK-101, DISPERBYK-130, DISPERBYK-140, DISPERBYK-160, DISPERBYK-161, DISPERBYK-162, DISPERBYK-163, DISPERBYK-164, DISPERBYK-165, DISPERBYK-166, and DISPERBYK. -170, DISPERBYK-171, DISPERBYK-182, DISPERBYK-2000, DISPERBYK-2001, etc.; or BASF's EFKA-47, EFKA-47EA, EFKA-48, EFKA-49, EFKA-100, EFKA-400, EFKA-450, etc.; or Zeneka's Solsperse5000, Solsperse 12000, Solsperse 13240, Solsperse 13940, Solsperse 17000, Solsperse 20000, Solsperse 24000GR, Solsperse 27000, Solsperse 28000, etc.; or Ajinomoto's PB711, PB821, etc.
[0234] The dispersant content in the total amount of the photosensitive resin composition can be from 0.1% to 15% by weight. When the content of the dispersant is within the range described above, the photosensitive resin composition exhibits excellent dispersibility, and consequently, excellent stability, developability, and patterning properties when preparing a light-shielding layer.
[0235] The pigment can also be used after pretreatment with water-soluble inorganic salts and wetting agents. As described above, when the pigment is used after pretreatment, the primary particle size of the pigment can be refined. The pretreatment is carried out through the following steps: kneading the pigment together with water-soluble inorganic salts and wetting agents; then, filtering and rinsing the pigment obtained in the kneading step. The kneading can be carried out at a temperature of 40°C to 100°C, and the filtering and rinsing can be done by rinsing the inorganic salts with water and filtering. For example, the water-soluble inorganic salts include sodium chloride, potassium chloride, etc., but are not limited thereto.
[0236] The wetting agent is uniformly mixed with the pigment and the water-soluble inorganic salt, thereby acting as a medium that makes the pigment easier to pulverize. For example, it includes alkylene glycol monoalkyl ether, propylene glycol monomethyl ether, diethylene glycol monomethyl ether, and other alkylene glycol monoalkyl ethers; ethanol, isopropanol, butanol, hexanol, cyclohexanol, ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, polyethylene glycol glycerin, and other alcohols, which can be used alone or in combination of two or more.
[0237] The pigments produced by the kneading step can have an average particle size of 20 nm to 110 nm. When the average particle size of the pigment falls within this range, it exhibits excellent heat resistance and lightfastness, and can effectively form fine patterns.
[0238] The pigment content in the total amount of the photosensitive resin composition can be from 1% to 40% by weight, 1% to 30% by weight, or 2% to 30% by weight. When the pigment content is within the range described above, the photosensitive resin composition exhibits excellent color reproduction and can form a patterned layer with excellent curability and adhesion.
[0239] The pigment and dye content in the total amount of the photosensitive resin composition may be 5 to 40% by weight, more specifically, 8 to 30% by weight. When the pigment and dye are included within the range described above, the clarity, curability, and adhesion of the pattern are excellent.
[0240] (D) Reactive unsaturated compounds
[0241] The reactive unsaturated compound may be one or more esters, which are (meth)acrylic acids having at least one ethylene-unsaturated double bond and being monofunctional or polyfunctional. The reactive unsaturated compound may be a monomer or an oligomer.
[0242] In this specification, "(meth)acrylic acid" can be methacrylic acid, acrylic acid, or a mixture of methacrylic acid and acrylic acid.
[0243] The reactive unsaturated compound can be a photopolymerizable compound. Since the reactive unsaturated compound is a photopolymerizable compound, sufficient polymerization is initiated when the photosensitive resin composition is exposed during the patterning process, resulting in a pattern with excellent heat resistance, light resistance, and chemical resistance.
[0244] For example, the reactive unsaturated compound may be selected from one or more of the following: ethylene glycol diacrylate, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate, diethylene glycol diacrylate, triethylene glycol diacrylate, triethylene glycol dimethacrylate, 1,6-hexanediol diacrylate, 1,6-hexanediol dimethacrylate, pentaerythritol triacrylate, pentaerythritol tetraacrylate, dipentaerythritol pentaacrylate, dipentaerythritol hexaacrylate, bisphenol A epoxy acrylate, ethylene glycol monomethyl ether acrylate, trimethylolpropane triacrylate, and trisacryloyl oxyethyl phosphate, but is not limited thereto.
[0245] Commercially available products of the aforementioned reactive unsaturated compounds include, for example, the following.
[0246] For example, the difunctional esters of (meth)acrylic acid include: aronyx M-210, M-240, M-6200, etc. from Toa Synthetic Chemical Industries, Ltd.; KAYARAD HDDA, HX-220, R-604, etc. from Nippon Chemical Industries, Ltd.; and V-260, V-312, V-335 HP, etc. from Osaka Organic Chemical Industries, Ltd.

[0248] The above products can be used alone or in combination of two or more.
[0249] To achieve superior developability, the reactive unsaturated compound can be used after treatment with acid anhydride. The content of the reactive unsaturated compound in the total amount of the photosensitive resin composition can be from 1 to 40% by weight, for example, from 1 to 20% by weight. When the content of the reactive unsaturated compound is within this range, sufficient curing is initiated during exposure in the patterning process, resulting in excellent reliability, excellent heat resistance, light resistance, and chemical resistance of the pattern, as well as excellent clarity and adhesion.
[0250] (E) Photoinitiator
[0251] *241 The initiator may be a combination of a photopolymerization initiator, a free radical polymerization initiator, or the like.
[0252] For example, the photopolymerization initiator may be one or more of acetophenone compounds, benzophenone compounds, thioxanone compounds, benzoethanol ketone compounds, oxime compounds, and triazine compounds.

[0258] For example, the triazine compounds include: 2,4,6-trichloro-s-triazine, 2-phenyl-4,6-bis(trichloromethyl)-s-triazine, 2-(3',4'-dimethoxystyryl)-4,6-bis(trichloromethyl)-s-triazine, 2-(4'-methoxynaphthyl)-4,6-bis(trichloromethyl)-s-triazine, 2-(p-methoxyphenyl)-4,6-bis(trichloromethyl)-s-triazine, and 2-(p-tolyl)-4,6-bis(trichloromethyl)-s-triazine.

[0259] In addition to compounds, the photopolymerization initiator can also be carbazole compounds, diketone compounds, sulfonium borate compounds, diazo compounds, imidazole compounds, non-imidazole compounds, etc.
[0260] The free radical polymerization initiator can be a peroxide-based compound, an azo-based compound, etc.
[0261] For example, the peroxide compounds include: ketone peroxides such as methyl ethyl ketone peroxide, methyl isobutyl ketone peroxide, cyclohexanone peroxide, methyl cyclohexanone peroxide, and acetylacetone peroxide; diacyl peroxides such as isobutyryl peroxide, 2,4-dichlorobenzoyl peroxide, o-methylbenzoyl peroxide, and bis-3,5,5-trimethylhexanoyl peroxide; hydrogen peroxides such as 2,4,4-trimethylpentyl-2-hydrogen peroxide, dicumyl hydroperoxide, isocumyl hydroperoxide, and t-butyl hydroperoxide; and dicumyl peroxide, 2,5-dimethyl-2,5-di(t-butylperoxide) Dialkyl peroxides, such as 1,3-bis(t-butoxyisopropyl)benzene and t-butyl peroxypentanoate; alkyl succinates, such as 2,4,4-trimethylpentyl peroxyphenoxyacetic acid, α-peroxynedecanoate, t-butyl peroxybenzoic acid, and di-t-butyl peroxytrimethyl adipic acid; percarbonates, such as di-3-methoxydicarbonate, di-2-ethylhexyl peroxydicarbonate, bis-4-t-cyclohexyl peroxydicarbonate, diisopropyl peroxydicarbonate, acetyl peroxycyclohexylsulfonyl, and t-peroxyaryl carbonate.

[0263] After the initiator absorbs light and transitions to an excited state, it transfers its energy, thus enabling its use in conjunction with a photosensitizer that produces a chemical reaction. Examples of photosensitizers include: triethylene glycol bis-3-mercaptopropionate, pentaerythritol tetra-3-mercaptopropionate, and dipentaerythritol tetra-3-mercaptopropionate.
[0264] The initiator content in the total amount of the photosensitive resin composition can be from 0.01 to 10% by weight or from 0.1 to 5% by weight. When the initiator content is within the range described above, sufficient curing is initiated during exposure in a patterning process using the photosensitive resin composition. Therefore, excellent reliability, excellent heat resistance, light resistance, and chemical resistance of the pattern, as well as excellent clarity and adhesion are achieved. Furthermore, it prevents a decrease in transmittance caused by unreacted initiator.
[0265] (F) Solvent
[0266] The solvent is compatible with the binder resin, the reactive unsaturated compound, the pigment, and the initiator, and non-reactive substances can be used.
[0267] For example, the solvents include: alcohols such as methanol and ethanol; ethers such as dichloroethyl ether, n-butyl ether, diisopentyl ether, anisole, and tetrahydrofuran; ethylene glycol ethers such as ethylene glycol monomethyl ether and ethylene glycol monoethyl ether; ethylene glycol ethyl acetate such as methoxyethyl acetate, ethoxyethyl acetate, and ethyl acetate; carbitols such as methyl ethyl carbitol, diethyl carbitol, diethylene glycol monomethyl ether, diethylene glycol monoethyl ether, diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, diethylene glycol methyl ethyl ether, and diethylene glycol diethyl ether; and propylene glycol.

[0268] Furthermore, high-boiling-point solvents such as N-methylformamide, N,N-dimethylformamide, N-methylformaniline, N-methylacetamide, N-dimethylacetamide, N-methylpyrrolidone, dimethyl sulfoxide, benzyl ethyl ether, dihexyl ether, acetylacetone, isophorone, hexanoic acid, octanoic acid, 1-octanol, 1-nonanol, benzyl alcohol, benzyl acetate, ethyl benzoate, diethyl oxalate, diethyl maleate, γ-butyrolactone, ethylene carbonate, propylene carbonate, and ethylene glycol phenyl ether acetate can be used.
[0269] Considering the compatibility and reactivity of the solvents, ethylene glycol ethers such as ethylene glycol monoethyl ether; ethylene glycol alkoxy ethers such as ethoxyethyl acetate; ethers such as ethyl 2-hydroxypropionate; carbitols such as diethylene glycol monomethyl ether; and propylene glycol alkyl ether acetates such as propylene glycol methyl ether acetate and propylene glycol propyl ether acetate.
[0270] The solvent may be included in the balance of the total amount of the photosensitive resin composition, specifically, the content may be 50 to 90% by weight. When the solvent content is within the range described above, the photosensitive resin composition can have an appropriate viscosity, thereby achieving excellent processability when preparing patterned layers.
[0271] Furthermore, additional embodiments of the present invention may provide a display device.
[0272] The display device of the present invention includes a pattern layer comprising a polymer of a photosensitive resin composition.
[0273] In the display device of the present invention, the relevant content of the photosensitive resin composition is the same as that of the photosensitive resin composition of the present invention described above, and its description is omitted here.
[0274] For example, the polymer of the photosensitive resin composition can be formed by coating the photosensitive resin composition onto a TFT substrate and curing the coated photosensitive resin composition.
[0275] The patterned layer contains polymers of the photosensitive resin composition, resulting in excellent clarity and a large cone angle.
[0276] The display device includes multiple sub-pixels, and the pattern layer may be a pixel definition layer that divides the multiple sub-pixels.
[0277] For example, the sub-pixels of the display device include light-emitting elements, which may be organic light-emitting elements (OLEDs). For instance, the OLED may be formed by sequentially stacking a first electrode, an organic layer, and a second electrode. In this example, the pattern layer is located on the first electrode, and the pattern layer has an opening on the first electrode. The organic layer is disposed within the opening and on the first electrode, and the second electrode is disposed on the organic layer. The light-emitting area of the sub-pixel is defined by the opening area of the pattern layer; therefore, the pattern layer may be a pixel definition layer.
[0278] Furthermore, preferably, the patterned layer is a light-blocking layer that blocks light.
[0279] In one embodiment of the present invention, the pattern layer may have a large cone angle. For example, in one embodiment of the present invention, the tilt angle of the pattern layer may be 20° to 40°. The tilt angle may be the tilt angle relative to the direction parallel to the marking surface at the beginning of the tilt.
[0280] The pattern layer, which serves as the pixel definition layer, has an opening, and the inclined portion connecting the opening and the non-opening portion has an inclined angle.
[0281] In one embodiment of the present invention, the patterned layer comprises a polymer of the photosensitive resin composition, which can form the patterned layer without residue and can achieve a large tilt angle because melt flow is suppressed during the patterning process.
[0282] Consequently, the pattern layer has a large tilt angle, which shortens the length of the tilted portion. Therefore, the distance between the openings can be reduced, and sub-pixels can be densely arranged, giving the display device high definition.
[0283] Hereinafter, specific examples of synthesis and embodiments of the present invention will be described, but the present invention is not limited to the examples of synthesis and embodiments.

[0329] Table 3
[0330]
[0331]
[0332] (Comparative Examples 1 to 4)
[0333] The photosensitive combination solution was prepared using the components listed in Table 4 below.
[0334] Table 4
[0335]
[0336]
[0337] The method for preparing the light-shielding layer using the combined solutions in Tables 3 and 4 above is as follows:
[0338] (1) Coating and film formation steps
[0339] The black photosensitive resin composition was applied to a cleaned 10cm*10cm glass substrate using a spin coater to a thickness of 1.5μm. Then, the substrate was heated at 100°C for 1 minute to remove the solvent and form a coating film.
[0340] (2) Exposure steps
[0341] A mask of a given morphology is intercalated onto the obtained coating to facilitate the formation of the desired pattern. Then, the coating is irradiated with photochemical rays ranging from 190 nm to 500 nm. An MA-6 exposure unit is used, with an exposure dose of 100 mJ / cm². 2 Standard irradiation.
[0342] (3) Development step
[0343] After performing the exposure step, the image is then developed at 25°C for 1 minute using AZEM's AX 300MIF developer via dipping. The unexposed areas are then rinsed with water to dissolve and remove them, leaving only the exposed areas to form the image pattern.
[0344] (4) Post-processing steps
[0345] In order to obtain a pattern with excellent heat resistance, light resistance, adhesion, crack resistance, chemical resistance, high strength and storage safety, the image pattern obtained by development is post-baked in an oven at 230°C for 30 minutes.
[0346] The reflectivity of the pattern and the highest resolution of the pattern formed on the substrate (the smallest size pattern on the substrate) are recorded in Tables 5 and 6.
[0347] Table 5
[0348]
[0349]
[0350] Table 6
[0351]
[0352] As shown in Tables 5 and 6 above, comparing Examples 1 to 7 using synthetic dyes 10 to 12 with Comparative Examples 2 and 3, it can be seen that the reflectance at a wavelength of 550 nm is lower than that of Comparative Examples 1 and 4 using dyes. Therefore, it can be concluded that the pattern formed by the photosensitive resin composition with added dye has a lower reflectance than the pattern formed by the photosensitive resin composition without added dye, and its application in a display can improve visibility.
[0353] Furthermore, in the 365nm region, Examples 1 to 7 using the dye described in this invention have minimal impact on the reduction of transmittance. It has been verified that, compared with Comparative Example 1 using the same weight % black pigment dispersion, it can improve optical density and reduce reflectance while maintaining similar levels of transmittance and clarity.
[0354] Conversely, Comparative Example 4 did not use the dye described in this invention, but increased the ratio of black pigment dispersion. Compared to Comparative Example 1, its reflectivity decreased, but its transmittance in the 365nm region decreased significantly. This caused the photoinitiator to not receive enough energy from the light source, resulting in a decrease in polymerization degree, a larger minimum size pattern, and a decrease in clarity.
[0355] Comparative Examples 2 or 3 used polymer 6 or polymer 7, which is formed by polymerizing a single monomer. Compared to polymers 1 to 5, polymers 6 and 7 have a relatively linear morphology due to the structure of the monomer. Conversely, Examples 1 to 7 used polymers 1 to 5, which are polymerized into three monomers with different structures. Compared to polymers 6 and 7, polymers 6 and 7 have a relatively network structure. Subsequently, after exposure and development steps, Examples 1 to 7, which used polymers 1 to 5 to form patterns, still exhibited good dye adsorption. It was verified that compared to Comparative Examples 2 and 3, which used linear polymers 6 and 7, they had higher optical density and lower reflectivity.
[0356] Furthermore, comparing the minimum size patterns of Examples 1 to 7 using polymers 1 to 5 with those of Comparative Examples 2 and 3 using polymers 6 and 7, it is evident that Examples 1 to 7 formed patterns of 5.7 to 6.2 μm. Therefore, it is believed that polymers 1 to 5 used in Examples 1 to 7, based on their structural characteristics, effectively achieve intermolecular bonding with the surrounding compounds. Consequently, this structure is more suitable for photolithography processes, resulting in higher resolution during the development process.
[0357] Conversely, the polymers 6 and 7 used in Comparative Examples 2 and 3 have a relatively linear structure compared to polymers 1 to 5. When achieving the smallest pattern size, they start at 9.7 to 9.8 μm, and their clarity has been verified to be relatively low.
[0358] As can be seen from Table 6 above, when the acrylic binder is used together with the dye of the present invention, as in Comparative Example 5, instead of the alkaline soluble resin of the present invention, the clarity is the lowest compared to the alkaline soluble resin of the present invention due to the differences in the structure and characteristics of the polymer chain and branches.
[0359] The above description is merely an example to illustrate the present invention. Anyone skilled in the art can make various modifications without departing from the essential characteristics of the present invention.
