Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of photosensitive resin compositions, and in particular relates to a photosensitive resin composition comprising an anthracene-based chalcone photosensitizer and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Photosensitive resin compositions, as key pattern transfer materials, are widely used in the manufacturing of printed circuit boards (PCBs), lead frames (LFs), and semiconductor package (IC) substrates. The photosensitive resin composition is typically coated on a PET support film surface. After drying, a protective layer, such as a polyethylene film (PE) protective layer, is tightly adhered to the surface. This layer is also known as a photosensitive dry film or dry film resist. The pattern transfer process involves first applying the dry film resist to a copper substrate, then covering the dry film resist with a mask having a specific pattern, and exposing the pattern. A weakly alkaline aqueous solution is then used as a developer to remove the unexposed areas, followed by etching or electroplating to form the pattern. Finally, a stripping solution is used to remove the solidified dry film, thereby achieving pattern transfer.

[0003] As electronic devices progress toward miniaturization and higher density, the demand for circuit fineness continues to increase. To meet the demands of fine circuit manufacturing, photosensitive resin compositions must exhibit higher resolution. To improve resolution, it is necessary to add an appropriate photosensitizer to the photosensitive resin composition. The appropriate photosensitizer has a direct impact on photosensitivity, resolution, and production yield.

[0004] Currently, anthracene derivatives represented by 9,10-dibutoxyanthracene (DBA), 9,10-diphenylanthracene (DPHA) and 9,10-diacetoxyanthracene (DAcOA) are widely used as photosensitizers. However, there are some problems when using such photosensitizers. For example, when exposed to light, the CO bond at the 9,10 position of the 9,10-dibutoxyanthracene photosensitizer breaks, the anthracene ring dimerizes, and a small molecule alkoxy fragment is released. This small molecule fragment migrates from the cured photosensitive resin composition to the plating solution during the subsequent electroplating process, causing contamination and affecting the life of the plating solution and the electroplating effect. Due to its rigid molecular structure, the solubility of the 9,10-diphenylanthracene photosensitizer is greatly reduced, which has a great impact on the uniformity and consistency of the product. Due to the electron-withdrawing induction effect of the acyl group of the 9,10-diacetoxyanthracene photosensitizer, the electron cloud density at the 9,10 positions of the anthracene ring increases, resulting in a decrease in the efficiency of this photosensitizer in catalyzing the curing reaction. The sidewall verticality of the cured photosensitive resin composition is poor, and the length difference between the top and bottom lines is large, forming an "inverted trapezoid". In addition, the energy required for exposure of this photosensitizer is increased, resulting in a decrease in photobleaching efficiency.

[0005] Therefore, developing a new anthracene photosensitizer with high quantum yield, low migration characteristics and excellent development compatibility, and constructing a high-performance photocurable resin composition based on it, has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently in this field.

[0186] The operating conditions of each step are described in detail below.

[0187] Photosensitive layer formation process: A copper-clad laminate laminated with a 35 μm thick rolled 1.2 mm thick copper foil was used. After surface conditioning and preheating to 80°C, the PE protective film of the photosensitive dry film obtained in each embodiment or comparative example was peeled off, and the above-mentioned photosensitive resin composition layer was laminated to the copper-clad laminate using a hot roller laminator (Zhisheng Technology Co., Ltd., CSL-M25E) at a roller temperature of 110°C, an air pressure of 0.35 MPa, and a lamination speed of 1.5 m / min to obtain a test substrate.

[0188] Exposure process: Exposure is performed using a direct-drawing exposure machine (Core Micro, main wavelength 405nm). A Stouffer 41-level stage exposure scale is used for sensitivity testing, and the number of exposure grids is controlled at 14-18 grids.

[0189] Development Process: After exposure, the PET support film is peeled off and an alkali developer (manufactured by Guangzhou Julong Printed Circuit Equipment Co., Ltd., a dry film developer) is used to spray a 1wt% Na2CO3 aqueous solution at 30°C for twice the minimum development time to dissolve and remove the unexposed portions of the photosensitive resin layer. After development, the substrate is rinsed with pure water for 1.5 times the development time, dehydrated with an air knife, and then dried with warm air to obtain a substrate with a cured film for evaluation. The minimum development time is the shortest time required to completely dissolve the unexposed portion of the photosensitive resin layer.

[0190] Evaluation Project

[0191] 1. Sensitivity evaluation

[0192] A Stouffer 41-step scale was placed on the above-mentioned film-attached test substrate for sensitivity testing. After the exposure process, the test substrate was left to stand for more than 20 minutes, then the PET film layer was peeled off and a 1.0wt% sodium carbonate aqueous solution was sprayed at 30°C to remove the unexposed resist layer. The development time was 2.0 times the minimum development time. After the above operation, a cured film obtained by curing the photosensitive resin composition was formed on the surface of the substrate. The exposure energy (mJ / cm) when the number of remaining segments of the scale obtained by curing the film was 16 2 ), the sensitivity of the photosensitive resin composition was evaluated, and the smaller the value, the better the sensitivity.

[0193] 2. Adhesion evaluation

[0194] On the above-described post-filming test substrate, exposure was performed using a photomask with a line / space width of n:400 (unit: μm) at an energy level that resulted in 16 remaining steps after development using a Stouffer 41-step scale. After development, the resist pattern was observed using an optical microscope, and adhesion (μm) was evaluated using the minimum line width resulting in a complete, cured resist line. A smaller value indicates better adhesion.

[0195] 3. Resist shape evaluation

[0196] The resist pattern used for the resolution evaluation was observed with a SU1000 scanning electron microscope (manufactured by Hitachi) for the portion with the best resolution. Evaluation was performed based on the following criteria:

[0197] ■: The difference in width between the top and bottom of the resist front cross section is less than or equal to 0.8 μm, and the inverted trapezoid is basically not observed;

[0198] ○: The difference in width between the top and bottom of the resist front cross section is greater than 0.8 μm and less than 1.2 μm, and the cross section is slightly inverted trapezoidal;

[0199] ×: The difference in width between the top and bottom of the resist front end cross section is greater than or equal to 1.2 μm, and the cross section is clearly inverted trapezoidal.

[0200] The test results of evaluation items 1-4 are summarized in Table 3 below.

[0201]

[0202] The results in Table 3 show that the anthracene-based chalcone photosensitizer of the present invention performs on par with DBA in terms of exposure energy (sensitivity) and slightly below DPHA. However, it has significant advantages in terms of adhesion and resist shape, resolving the problem of inverted trapezoidal shapes in resists formed by curing DBA and DPHA photosensitizers. DOAcA performs poorly in terms of exposure energy and exhibits a significant inverted trapezoidal shape problem. The anthracene-based chalcone photosensitizer of the present invention has significantly better overall performance than DOAcA. These results demonstrate the broad applicability of the photosensitizer of the present invention.

[0203] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as within the scope of protection of the present invention.
