Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present disclosure relates to a photosensitive resin composition, and a method for producing a dry film, a semiconductor device, and a printed wiring board using the same. [Background technology]
[0002] In recent years, the increasing performance of electronic devices (smaller size, lighter weight, and more functionality) has led to the increasing integration of semiconductor components such as LSIs and chips. This has led to a rapid shift in the form of semiconductor components, with more pins and smaller size. Furthermore, as the integration of semiconductor components increases, the semiconductor elements, semiconductor packages, printed wiring boards, flexible wiring boards, and other components that make up semiconductor components are becoming increasingly dense and precise. As a result, component-embedded substrates with embedded chips and chip capacitors are being considered. Surface protection films or interlayer insulating films used in semiconductor components are required to be able to form via opening patterns for interlayer connections, and to adhere not only to substrate materials and copper patterns (conductor patterns) but also to chip components.
[0003] A build-up method is a conventional method for manufacturing printed wiring boards. In this build-up method, an insulating resin film is first laminated onto an inner layer circuit board (a substrate having a first conductor pattern), cured by heating to form an interlayer insulating film, and then via holes are formed by laser processing. Next, the interlayer insulating film is roughened and smeared by alkaline permanganate treatment or the like, and then electroless copper plating is performed to form via holes that enable interlayer connection with a second conductor pattern (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
[0004] In recent years, the increasing density of conductor patterns has led to a demand for high resolution in surface protection films, and photosensitive resin compositions that can be patterned by photolithography have come into widespread use. Among these, alkali-developable photosensitive resin compositions that can be developed with a weak alkaline aqueous solution such as an aqueous sodium carbonate solution have become mainstream from the viewpoints of preserving the working environment and the global environment.

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 7-304931 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0006] On the other hand, conventional laser processing to form via holes using a build-up method requires forming each via individually, which can be time-consuming when a large number of vias are required for high density. Therefore, photolithography has been considered as a method for forming a surface protection film that can simultaneously form a large number of vias. However, the adhesive strength between the surface protection film and electroless-plated copper is not sufficient.
[0007] Therefore, the problem that the present disclosure aims to solve is to provide a photosensitive resin composition that has excellent adhesive strength with plated copper, excellent resolution, and excellent adhesion to silicon substrates such as silicon wafers and chip components, as well as a dry film, a printed wiring board, and a method for manufacturing a printed wiring board that use the same (hereinafter, these may be referred to as "photosensitive resin composition, etc."). [Means for solving the problem]
[0008] The present inventors have conducted extensive research to solve the above-mentioned problems and have found that the problems can be solved by the following invention: That is, the present disclosure provides the following photosensitive resin composition, a dry film using the same, a printed wiring board, and a method for producing a printed wiring board.

[2] A dry film having a carrier film and a photosensitive layer using the photosensitive resin composition described in [1] above. [3] A printed wiring board having at least one of a surface protective film and an interlayer insulating film formed from the photosensitive resin composition according to [1] above. [4] A method for producing a printed wiring board, comprising the steps of providing a photosensitive layer on a substrate using the photosensitive resin composition described in [1] above or the dry film described in [2] above, forming a resin pattern using the photosensitive layer, and curing the resin pattern to form at least one of a surface protective film and an interlayer insulating film, in that order. [Effects of the Invention]

[0050] From the viewpoint of improving resolution, the components (A1) and (A2) are preferably resins obtained by reacting the components (a1) and (a2) (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "component (a)") with a vinyl group-containing monocarboxylic acid (b) (hereinafter sometimes referred to as component (b)), to obtain resins (A1') and (A2') (hereinafter sometimes collectively referred to as "component (A')"), with a saturated or unsaturated group-containing polybasic acid anhydride (c) (hereinafter sometimes referred to as component (c)).
[0051] [Vinyl group-containing monocarboxylic acid (b)] Preferred examples of component (b) include acrylic acid, acrylic acid dimers, methacrylic acid, acrylic acid derivatives such as β-furfurylacrylic acid, β-styrylacrylic acid, cinnamic acid, crotonic acid, and α-cyanocinnamic acid, half-ester compounds which are reaction products of hydroxyl group-containing acrylates and dibasic acid anhydrides, and half-ester compounds which are reaction products of vinyl group-containing monoglycidyl ethers or vinyl group-containing monoglycidyl esters and dibasic acid anhydrides.
[0052] The half-ester compound can be obtained, for example, by reacting a hydroxyl group-containing acrylate, a vinyl group-containing monoglycidyl ether, or a vinyl group-containing monoglycidyl ester with a dibasic acid anhydride in an equimolar ratio. These components (b) can be used alone or in combination.
[0053] Examples of the hydroxyl group-containing acrylate, vinyl group-containing monoglycidyl ether, and vinyl group-containing monoglycidyl ester used in the synthesis of the above-mentioned half-ester compound, which is an example of component (b), include hydroxyethyl acrylate, hydroxyethyl methacrylate, hydroxypropyl acrylate, hydroxypropyl methacrylate, hydroxybutyl acrylate, hydroxybutyl methacrylate, polyethylene glycol monoacrylate, polyethylene glycol monomethacrylate, trimethylolpropane diacrylate, trimethylolpropane dimethacrylate, pentaerythritol triacrylate, pentaerythritol trimethacrylate, dipentaerythritol pentaacrylate, pentaerythritol pentamethacrylate, glycidyl acrylate, and glycidyl methacrylate.

Specific examples of the dibasic acid anhydride include succinic anhydride, maleic anhydride, tetrahydrophthalic anhydride, phthalic anhydride, methyltetrahydrophthalic anhydride, ethyltetrahydrophthalic anhydride, hexahydrophthalic anhydride, methylhexahydrophthalic anhydride, ethylhexahydrophthalic anhydride, and itaconic anhydride.
[0055] In the reaction between the above components (a) and (b), the ratio of component (b) may be 0.6 to 1.05 equivalents or 0.8 to 1.0 equivalents per equivalent of epoxy group in component (a). By reacting at such a ratio, photopolymerization is improved, i.e., photosensitivity is increased, resulting in improved resolution.
[0056] The components (a) and (b) can be reacted by dissolving them in an organic solvent. Preferred examples of the organic solvent include ketones such as methyl ethyl ketone and cyclohexanone; aromatic hydrocarbons such as toluene, xylene, and tetramethylbenzene; glycol ethers such as methyl cellosolve, butyl cellosolve, methyl carbitol, butyl carbitol, propylene glycol monomethyl ether, dipropylene glycol monoethyl ether, dipropylene glycol diethyl ether, and triethylene glycol monoethyl ether; esters such as ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, butyl cellosolve acetate, and carbitol acetate; aliphatic hydrocarbons such as octane and decane; and petroleum-based solvents such as petroleum ether, petroleum naphtha, hydrogenated petroleum naphtha, and solvent naphtha.

The amount of catalyst used may be appropriately selected from 0.01 to 10 parts by mass, 0.05 to 2 parts by mass, or 0.1 to 1 part by mass relative to 100 parts by mass of the total of components (a) and (b). When used in the above amount, the reaction between components (a) and (b) is promoted.
[0058] In order to prevent polymerization during the reaction, it is preferable to use a polymerization inhibitor, such as hydroquinone, methylhydroquinone, hydroquinone monomethyl ether, catechol, or pyrogallol. The amount of the polymerization inhibitor used may be appropriately selected from 0.01 to 1 part by mass, 0.02 to 0.8 parts by mass, or 0.04 to 0.5 parts by mass relative to 100 parts by mass of the total of the components (a) and (b) from the viewpoint of improving the storage stability of the composition.
[0059] The reaction temperature between the components (a) and (b) may be appropriately selected from 60 to 150°C, 80 to 120°C, or 90 to 110°C from the viewpoint of productivity.
[0060] In this way, it is presumed that component (A'), which is obtained by reacting component (a) with component (b), has a hydroxyl group formed by a ring-opening addition reaction between the epoxy group of component (a) and the carboxyl group of component (b). It is presumed that by further reacting the component (A') obtained above with the component (c) containing a saturated or unsaturated group, the hydroxyl groups of component (A') (including the hydroxyl groups originally present in component (a)) and the acid anhydride groups of component (c) are semi-esterified to form an acid-modified vinyl group-containing epoxy resin.

[0062] In the reaction between component (A') and component (c), for example, the acid value of the acid-modified vinyl group-containing epoxy resin can be adjusted by reacting 0.1 to 1.0 equivalents of component (c) with 1 equivalent of hydroxyl groups in component (A').
[0063] The acid value of component (A) may be 30 to 150 mgKOH / g, 40 to 120 mgKOH / g, or 50 to 100 mgKOH / g. When the acid value is 30 mgKOH / g or more, the solubility of the photosensitive resin composition in a dilute alkaline solution is excellent, and when it is 150 mgKOH / g or less, the electrical properties of the cured film are improved.
[0064] The reaction temperature between the component (A') and the component (c) may be appropriately selected from 50 to 150°C, 60 to 120°C, or 70 to 100°C from the viewpoint of productivity.
[0065] If necessary, component (a) may also contain, for example, a hydrogenated bisphenol A epoxy resin. Furthermore, component (A) may also contain, for example, a styrene-maleic acid resin such as a hydroxyethyl (meth)acrylate-modified styrene-maleic anhydride copolymer.
[0066] (Molecular weight of component (A)) The weight-average molecular weight of component (A) may be 3,000 to 30,000, 4,000 to 25,000, or 5,000 to 18,000. Within these ranges, adhesive strength, heat resistance, and electrical insulation are improved. Here, the weight-average molecular weight is a polyethylene-equivalent weight-average molecular weight measured by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) using tetrahydrofuran as a solvent. More specifically, for example, the weight-average molecular weight can be determined by measuring using the GPC measurement device and measurement conditions described below, and converting the value using a calibration curve of standard polystyrene. The calibration curve is also prepared using a five-sample set of standard polystyrenes ("PStQuick MP-H" and "PStQuick B," manufactured by Tosoh Corporation).

[0067] (Content of component (A)) The content of the component (A) may be appropriately selected from 5 to 60 mass%, 10 to 50 mass%, or 15 to 40 mass%, based on the total solid content of the photosensitive resin composition, from the viewpoint of improving heat resistance, electrical properties, and chemical resistance.
[0068] (Total content of components (A1) and (A2) in component (A)) When component (A1) and component (A2) are used in combination as component (A), the total content of components (A1) and (A2) in component (A) may be appropriately selected from the ranges of 80 to 100 mass%, 90 to 100 mass%, 95 to 100 mass%, or 100 mass% from the viewpoint of improving resolution and heat resistance. When either component (A1) or component (A2) is used alone, the total content may also be appropriately selected from the above ranges.
[0069] (mass ratio of component (A1) to component (A2)) When the component (A) is a combination of the component (A1) and the component (A2), the mass ratio (A1 / A2) may be appropriately selected from within the range of 30 / 70 to 90 / 10, 40 / 60 to 80 / 20, or 50 / 50 to 80 / 20 from the viewpoint of improving resolution and heat resistance.

A surface protective film 108 is provided on the surface, and at least one of the surface protective film 108 and the interlayer insulating film 103 is formed using the photosensitive resin composition of this embodiment or the dry film of this embodiment. The multilayer printed wiring board 100A can be obtained, for example, by laminating a copper clad laminate, an interlayer insulating material, a metal foil, or the like, and appropriately forming a conductor pattern by etching or a semi-additive method. A method for manufacturing multilayer printed wiring board 100A will now be briefly described with reference to FIG.
[0118] First, an interlayer insulating layer 103 is formed on both surfaces of a copper clad laminate 101 having conductive patterns 102 on both surfaces (see FIG. 1(a)). The interlayer insulating layer 103 is formed by the method described in the printed wiring board manufacturing method, i.e., by applying the photosensitive resin composition of this embodiment or by thermally laminating the dry film of this embodiment using a laminator to form a photosensitive layer, exposing and curing the photosensitive layer using a negative film except for areas that need to be electrically connected to the outside (conductive patterns on other layers), and then removing the unexposed areas (see FIG. 1(b)). This interlayer insulating layer 103 is a film having an opening 104. Here, smears (residues) present around the opening 104 can be removed by desmearing.
[0119] Next, the conductor pattern 107 is formed. The conductor pattern 107 can be formed by a semi-additive method, for example, by forming a thin metal layer (seed layer), forming a resin pattern (plating resist), forming the conductor pattern 107 by electrolytic plating, removing the resin pattern, and then removing the seed layer by etching. Specifically, a seed layer 105 is formed by electroless plating on the interlayer insulating film 103 and on the conductor pattern 102 in the opening 104 (see FIG. 1(c)). This seed layer 105 can be formed of plated copper by electroless copper plating, for example. A photosensitive layer is formed on the seed layer 105 using a semi-additive photosensitive resin composition, and predetermined portions of the photosensitive layer are exposed to light using a negative film, followed by development to form a resin pattern 106 having a predetermined pattern (see FIG. 1(d)). Next, a conductor pattern 107 is formed by electroplating in the portion of the seed layer 105 where the resin pattern 106 is not formed, the resin pattern 106 is removed with a stripping solution, and the seed layer 105 is removed by etching (see FIG. 1(e)). The steps of FIGS. 1(b) to 1(e) are repeated to form conductor patterns 107 corresponding to the desired number of layers, and a surface protection film (permanent mask resist) 108 formed from a cured product of the photosensitive resin composition according to this embodiment is formed on the outermost surface, thereby producing a multilayer printed wiring board 100A (see FIG. 1(f)). Here, the photosensitive resin composition according to this embodiment, for example, can be used as the semi-additive photosensitive resin composition.
[0120] In the multilayer printed wiring board 100A obtained in this manner, semiconductor elements can be mounted at corresponding locations, ensuring electrical connections.
[0121] The printed wiring board according to this embodiment uses the photosensitive resin composition according to this embodiment for at least one of the surface protective film and the interlayer insulating film, and therefore enjoys the advantages of the photosensitive resin composition, namely, excellent adhesive strength with plated copper, excellent resolution, and adhesion to chip components. Furthermore, with the trend toward miniaturization and high performance of electronic devices, there is a marked trend toward higher density by narrowing the pitch of conductor patterns in semiconductor chips. To address this trend, the mainstream semiconductor packaging method is the flip-chip connection method, which joins a semiconductor chip to a substrate using solder bumps. However, this method has traditionally presented the following problems: This flip-chip connection method is a semiconductor mounting method using a reflow process in which solder balls are placed between a substrate and a semiconductor chip and then heated to melt and bond them together. Therefore, during solder reflow, the substrate itself is exposed to a high-temperature environment, and thermal contraction of the substrate generates large stresses in the solder balls connecting the substrate and the semiconductor, which can lead to poor connection of the conductor pattern and cracks in the surface protective film or underfill. Furthermore, exposure of the substrate to a high-temperature environment can cause thermal expansion of the resin composition forming the surface protective film or other film on the substrate, resulting in large stresses at the connection interface and poor connection. The photosensitive resin composition according to this embodiment has excellent adhesive strength with plated copper, excellent resolution, and adhesion to chip components, as well as excellent heat resistance and a low coefficient of thermal expansion, and therefore has sufficient performance to solve these problems. Therefore, the printed wiring board according to this embodiment is high-quality and less susceptible to poor connection of the conductor pattern and cracks in the surface protective film or other film.

[0127] Next, the photosensitive resin composition obtained above was used to carry out various evaluations under the conditions shown below. The evaluation results are shown in Table 2.
[0128] [Dry film preparation] A 16 μm-thick polyethylene terephthalate film (G2-16, Teijin Limited, product name) was used as a carrier film, and the photosensitive resin compositions of the Examples and Comparative Examples were uniformly coated onto the carrier film so that the film thickness after drying was 25 μm, and then dried at 75° C. for 30 minutes using a hot air convection dryer to form a photosensitive layer. Subsequently, a polyethylene film (NF-15, Tamapoly Corporation, product name) (protective layer) was attached to the surface of the photosensitive layer opposite the side in contact with the carrier film to produce a dry film.
[0129] [Resolution Evaluation] The protective layer of the dry film prepared above was peeled off and the film was laminated onto a 1.0 mm thick copper-clad laminate substrate (MCL-E-67, manufactured by Hitachi Chemical Co., Ltd.) using a continuous press vacuum laminator (MVLP-500, manufactured by Meiki Seisakusho Co., Ltd., product number) under specified lamination conditions (pressure: 0.4 MPa, press hot plate temperature: 80°C, vacuum time: 40 seconds, lamination press time: 20 seconds, air pressure: 4 kPa or less) to obtain a laminate with a photosensitive layer. Next, an i-line exposure system (UX-2240SM-XJ-01, manufactured by Ushio Inc., product number) was used to expose the vias to 100 to 500 mJ / cm through a negative mask having via patterns of predetermined sizes (opening diameter sizes: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120, 130, 140, 150, and 200 μmφ). 2 in the range of 50 mJ / cm 2 After that, the film was exposed to light while changing the temperature by 1.765 × 10 for a time equivalent to twice the shortest development time (the shortest time required for the unexposed portion of the photosensitive layer to be removed) at 30°C in a 1% by mass aqueous sodium carbonate solution. 5 The unexposed areas were then developed by spray development at a pressure of 2000 mJ / cm 2 using an ultraviolet exposure device. 2 and heated at 170° C. for 1 hour to prepare a test piece having a via pattern of a predetermined size on a copper-clad laminate substrate containing the cured product of the photosensitive resin composition. The test pieces were observed using a metallurgical microscope and evaluated according to the following criteria. The evaluation results are shown in Table 2. A: The minimum diameter of the opening was 50 μm or less. B: The minimum diameter of the opening was more than 50 μm and less than 100 μm. C: The minimum diameter of the opening exceeded 100 μm.
[0130] [Evaluation of adhesive strength with plated copper] A laminate having the photosensitive layer prepared in the above [Evaluation of resolution] was prepared, and the laminate was exposed to 500 mJ / cm using an i-line exposure device (UX-2240SM-XJ-01, manufactured by Ushio Inc., product number). 2 Then, the entire surface was exposed to 2000 mJ / cm using an ultraviolet exposure device. 2 The substrate was exposed to an exposure dose of 1000 ppm and heated at 170°C for 1 hour to obtain a copper-clad laminate substrate having a cured film of the photosensitive resin composition. To chemically roughen the cured film, a swelling solution (aqueous solution of diethylene glycol monobutyl ether: 200 ml / L, sodium hydroxide: 5 g / L) was prepared, heated to 70°C, and the substrate was immersed for 10 minutes. Next, a roughening solution (aqueous solution of potassium permanganate: 60 g / L, sodium hydroxide: 40 g / L) was prepared, heated to 70°C, and the substrate was immersed for 15 minutes. Subsequently, a neutralizing solution (aqueous solution of tin chloride (SnCl): 30 g / L, hydrogen chloride: 300 ml / L) was prepared, heated to 40°C, and the substrate was immersed for 5 minutes to reduce the potassium permanganate and chemically roughen the cured film. The specimens were then immersed in an electroless plating catalyst containing lead chloride (PdCl2) (Activator Neogant 834, Atotech Japan, Inc.) heated to 35°C for 5 minutes, then immersed in an electroless copper plating solution (Printoganth MSK-DK, Atotech Japan, Inc.) at room temperature for 15 minutes, followed by copper sulfate electroplating. The specimens were then annealed at 180°C for 60 minutes to form a 35 μm-thick conductor layer, yielding test specimens. A 10 mm wide, 50 mm long region was formed on the conductor layer by treatment with a sulfuric acid / hydrogen peroxide etching solution. One end of this region was peeled off 10 mm from the interface between the conductor layer (copper layer) and the cured resin film. The peeled resin film was then gripped with a gripper and pulled in the thickness direction (perpendicular to the specimen) at room temperature at a pulling rate of 50 mm / min, and the peel load (peel strength) was measured. The evaluation results are shown in Table 2. In this specification, room temperature refers to 25°C.
[0131] [Adhesion evaluation] A laminate having a photosensitive layer was obtained in the same manner as described in [Evaluation of resolution], except that the copper-clad laminate substrate was replaced with a 6-inch silicon wafer (manufactured by Electronics and Materials Corporation). The laminate was exposed to 500 mJ / cm using an i-line exposure device (UX-2240SM-XJ-01, manufactured by Ushio Inc.). 2 Then, the entire surface was exposed to 2000 mJ / cm using an ultraviolet exposure device. 2 The wafer was exposed to an exposure dose of 1000 ppm and heated at 170°C for 1 hour to obtain a silicon wafer having a cured film of the photosensitive resin composition. An aluminum stud (adhesive diameter: 2.7 mm, P / N 901106, PhotoTechnica Corporation, product name) with an epoxy adhesive was then placed vertically on the cured film, and the film was heated in an oven at 150°C for 1 hour to obtain a test piece. The stud on the test piece was fixed to the chuck of a thin film adhesion strength measuring device (PhotoTechnica Corporation), and a force was applied perpendicular to the cured film. The subsequent condition was evaluated according to the following criteria. The evaluation results are shown in Table 2. A: The epoxy adhesive failed cohesively. B: Peeling occurred at the interface between the cured film and the silicon wafer.
[0132] [Measurement of thermal expansion coefficient and glass transition temperature] The dry film prepared above was exposed to 500 mJ / cm using an i-line exposure device (UX-2240SM-XJ-01, manufactured by Ushio Inc.). 2 After leaving it to stand at room temperature (25°C) for 1 hour, the polyethylene film was peeled off and the film was spray-developed with a 1% by mass aqueous solution of sodium carbonate at 30°C. After that, a UV irradiation device (manufactured by Oak Manufacturing Co., Ltd.) was used to expose the entire surface to 2 J / cm 2 The sample was then irradiated with ultraviolet light for 10 seconds, and then heated for 60 minutes at 170° C. Then, a piece 3 mm wide and 30 mm long was cut using a cutter knife, and the polyethylene terephthalate film (carrier film) was peeled off to obtain a cured product for evaluation of the thermal expansion coefficient. The thermal expansion coefficient was measured in tension mode using a TMA instrument (SS6000, Seiko Instruments Inc., product number). The tensile load was 5 g, the span (distance between chucks) was 15 mm, and the heating rate was 10°C / min. First, the test specimen was mounted in the instrument and heated from room temperature (25°C) to 160°C and left for 15 minutes. It was then cooled to -60°C and measured again at a heating rate of 10°C / min from -60°C to 250°C, from which the thermal expansion coefficient and glass transition temperature were calculated. The thermal expansion coefficient and glass transition temperature are shown in Table 2.
[0133] [Table 2]
[0134] From Table 2, it was confirmed that the photosensitive resin compositions of this embodiment of Examples 1 to 6 exhibit excellent performance in terms of resolution, adhesive strength, and adhesion, and are particularly suitable for use as surface protection films in printed wiring boards, interlayer insulating films, and surface protection films in contact with silicon materials. In contrast, the resin compositions of Comparative Examples 1 to 5 did not achieve sufficient effects in terms of resolution, adhesive strength, or adhesion. Furthermore, from the results of the thermal expansion coefficient and glass transition point, it was also confirmed that the photosensitive resin composition of this embodiment has excellent heat resistance and a low thermal expansion coefficient.
