Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a resin composition, a cured product, a laminate, a method for producing a cured product, a method for producing a laminate, a method for producing a semiconductor device, and a semiconductor device. [Background technology]
[0002] BACKGROUND ART Nowadays, resin materials produced from resin compositions containing resins are being utilized in various fields. For example, cyclized resins such as polyimides have excellent heat resistance and insulating properties, and are therefore used in a variety of applications. Examples of such applications include, but are not limited to, insulating films, sealing materials, and protective films for semiconductor devices used for packaging. They are also used as base films and coverlays for flexible substrates.
[0003] For example, in the above-mentioned applications, the cyclized resin such as polyimide is used in the form of a resin composition containing the cyclized resin or a precursor thereof. Such a resin composition is applied to a substrate by, for example, coating to form a photosensitive film, and then, if necessary, exposure, development, heating, etc. are carried out to form a cured product on the substrate. The resin composition can be applied by known coating methods, etc., and therefore can be said to have excellent adaptability in manufacturing, for example, a high degree of freedom in designing the shape, size, application position, etc. of the resin composition when applied. In addition to the high performance of cyclized resins such as polyimides, from the viewpoint of such excellent adaptability in manufacturing, there are increasing expectations for the industrial application and development of the above-mentioned resin composition.
[0004] For example, Patent Document 1 describes a photosensitive resin composition containing a polyimide precursor having a weight-average molecular weight of 40,000 or more and a polymerizable unsaturated bond, a polymerizable monomer, a photopolymerization initiator, and a solvent.

[0011] (Resin composition) The resin composition of the present invention is a resin composition containing resin A, polymerization initiator B, and 8-azaadenine, wherein resin A contains an amic acid ester structure and an amic acid structure, and the molar amount of the amic acid ester structure relative to the total molar amount of the amic acid structure and the amic acid ester structure (hereinafter also referred to as "esterification rate") is 90.00 to 99.90%.
[0012] The resin composition of the present invention is preferably used to form a photosensitive film that is subjected to exposure and development, and more preferably used to form a film that is subjected to exposure and development using a developer containing an organic solvent. The resin composition of the present invention can be used to form, for example, an insulating film for a semiconductor device, an interlayer insulating film for a rewiring layer, a stress buffer film, etc., and is preferably used to form an interlayer insulating film for a rewiring layer. Furthermore, the resin composition of the present invention may be used to form a photosensitive film to be subjected to negative development, or may be used to form a photosensitive film to be subjected to positive development, but is preferably used to form a photosensitive film to be subjected to negative development. The resin composition of the present invention is preferably used to form a cured product in which at least a portion thereof is in contact with a metal. Examples of metals include copper, aluminum, nickel, vanadium, titanium, chromium, cobalt, gold, tungsten, tin, silver, and alloys containing these metals, such as copper and aluminum or alloys containing at least one of these, with copper or an alloy containing copper being preferred. In the present invention, negative development refers to development in which the unexposed areas are removed by development, and positive development refers to development in which the exposed areas are removed by development. As the exposure method, the developer, and the development method, for example, the exposure method described in the exposure step and the developer and development method described in the development step in the description of the method for producing a cured product described below can be used.
[0013] The resin composition of the present invention provides a cured product that can inhibit the formation of a copper oxide film in a bHAST test on a 2 μm fine copper wiring. The mechanism by which the above effects are obtained is unknown, but is speculated as follows. The presence of side-chain carboxylic acid groups in the resin is thought to accelerate copper corrosion during bHAST. Because 8-azaadenine can form hydrogen bonds with carboxylic acid groups, the rust inhibitor 8-azaadenine is distributed in large quantities around the carboxylic acid groups. This is thought to effectively suppress the formation of copper oxide films. It is presumed that the esterification rate of the resin is 99.90% or less, which allows 8-azaadenine to be effectively distributed near the copper wiring through its interaction with the carboxylic acid groups of the resin. On the other hand, the esterification rate of the resin is 90.00% or more, which prevents the copper corrosion effect of the carboxylic acid groups from exceeding the rust-preventing effect of 8-azaadenine, thereby improving performance.
[0014] Here, Patent Document 1 neither describes nor suggests a resin composition containing a resin having an esterification rate of 90.00 to 99.90% and 8-azaadenine.
[0015] The resin composition of the present invention will be described in detail below.
[0016] <Specific resin: Resin A> The resin composition of the present invention includes a resin A (specific resin) that contains an amic acid ester structure and an amic acid structure, and in which the molar amount of the amic acid ester structure relative to the total molar amount of the amic acid structure and the amic acid ester structure (hereinafter also referred to as "esterification rate") is 90.00 to 99.90%. Resin A (specific resin) in the resin composition of the present invention may consist of one type of resin or two or more types of resins. When Resin A (specific resin) consists of two or more types of resins, the esterification rate, imidization rate, acid value, proportion of unit structures, etc. are values calculated or measured by treating the above multiple types of resins as one resin. The specific resin is preferably a polyimide precursor and may contain polyimide. The polyimide precursor refers to a resin that changes its chemical structure in response to an external stimulus to become a polyimide. A resin that changes its chemical structure in response to heat to become a polyimide is preferred, and a resin that changes its chemical structure in response to heat to become a polyimide by forming a ring structure is more preferred. In the present invention, polyimide refers to a resin having a repeating unit containing an imide group in the molecular chain, and is preferably a resin having a repeating unit containing an imide ring structure in the molecular chain. Furthermore, when the polyimide is a linear resin, the polyimide is preferably a resin having a repeating unit containing an imide group in the main chain, and more preferably a resin having a repeating unit containing an imide ring structure in the main chain. In this specification, the term "main chain" refers to the relatively longest bonding chain in a resin molecule, and the term "side chain" refers to any other bonding chain. In this specification, the imide group refers to a structure represented by *-C(=O)N(-*)C(=O)-*, where * represents a bonding site to another structure, preferably a bonding site to a carbon atom, and more preferably a bonding site to a quaternary carbon atom. In this specification, the imide ring structure refers to a ring structure containing two carbon atoms and all of the nitrogen atoms in the above imide as ring members. The imide ring structure is preferably a five-membered ring. The polyimide may be a so-called polyamideimide, which has an amide group in the molecular chain in addition to an imide group. In this specification, the amide group refers to a structure represented by *-C(=O)N(-#)-*, where * represents a bonding site to another structure, preferably a bonding site to a carbon atom, and more preferably a bonding site to a quaternary carbon atom. Furthermore, # represents a bonding site to another structure, preferably a bonding site to a hydrogen atom or a carbon atom, and more preferably a bonding site to a hydrogen atom. Both the amic acid ester structure and the amic acid structure are structures containing an amide group, as will be described later.
[0017] [Esterification rate] The ratio of the molar amount of the amic acid ester structure to the total molar amount of the amic acid structure and the amic acid ester structure in the specific resin (esterification rate of the specific resin) is 90.00 to 99.90%. The amic acid structure is, for example, A in the repeating unit represented by formula (1-b) described later. 2 -O-, R 2b is a hydrogen atom, and in the repeating unit represented by formula (1-c), A 3 -O-, R 3c is a hydrogen atom, and in the repeating unit represented by formula (1-d), A 41 and A 42 are both -O- and R 41 and R 42 The amic acid structure is an amic acid structure in which two are present when both A are hydrogen atoms. 2 -O-, R 2b is a monovalent organic group, and in the repeating unit represented by formula (1-c), A 3 -O-, R 3c is a monovalent organic group, and in the repeating unit represented by formula (1-d), A 41 and A 42 are both -O- and R 41 and R 42 When both are monovalent organic groups, two amide acid ester structures exist.
[0018] The presence of side-chain carboxylic acid groups in resins is thought to accelerate copper corrosion, but copper corrosion can be suppressed by achieving esterification in the range of 90.00 to 99.90%. Specifically, the rust inhibitor 8-azaadenine is thought to be able to form hydrogen bonds with carboxylic acid groups, thereby suppressing the formation of copper oxide films. By ensuring that the resin has an esterification rate of 99.90% or less and an amic acid structure ratio of 0.10% or more, 8-azaadenine can be effectively distributed near copper wiring through interaction with the carboxylic acid groups of the resin. Furthermore, by ensuring an esterification rate of 90.00% or more, i.e., an amic acid structure ratio of less than 10.00%, the copper corrosion effect of the carboxylic acid groups can be prevented from exceeding the rust-preventing effect of 8-azaadenine. The esterification rate is more preferably 92.00 to 99.50%, and even more preferably 95.00 to 99.00%. When the specific resin is made up of a plurality of types of resins, the esterification rate calculated by treating the plurality of types of resins as one resin falls within the above range. The esterification rate of the resin 1 The value is determined by H-NMR measurement. Specifically, it can be determined by the measurement method described in the Examples below.
[0019] [Imidization rate] The imidization rate of the specific resin is preferably 3 to 40%. It is believed that the imide ring structure in the specific resin present in this range interacts with 8-azaadenine as described below, resulting in uniform distribution of 8-azaadenine and uniform inhibition of copper corrosion. From the viewpoint of elongation at break, the imidization rate is preferably 5% or more, more preferably 10% or more, and even more preferably 15% or more. From the viewpoint of resolution, the imidization rate is preferably less than 40%, more preferably 35% or less, even more preferably 30% or less, and particularly preferably 25% or less.
[0020] In the present invention, the imidization rate is a value calculated by the following method. The resin is dissolved in γ-butyrolactone, diluted to a viscosity of 2,000 mPa·s, and applied to a silicon wafer by spin coating to form a resin layer. If a resin layer cannot be formed due to reasons such as low solubility of the resin in γ-butyrolactone, the solvent may be changed to another solvent. Examples of other solvents include solvents contained in the resin composition, such as NMP. The viscosity may also be adjusted as needed. The silicon wafer with the resulting resin layer applied is dried on a hot plate at 110°C for 5 minutes to obtain a uniform resin layer with a film thickness of approximately 15 μm on the silicon wafer. If only a low-viscosity resin solution is obtained, making it difficult to obtain a resin layer with a film thickness of 15 μm, the film thickness may be adjusted as needed. For example, a film thickness of 5 μm or more will result in a similar imidization rate. The resin layer was measured by the ATR method using a NicoletiS20 (manufactured by Thermofisher) in the measurement range of 4000 to 700 cm -1 , 50 measurements are taken. 1380cm -1 Around (1350~1450cm -1 (If there are multiple peaks, the peak with the highest intensity) and 1500 cm -1 Around (1460~1550cm -1 The imidization index B is calculated in the same manner for a film that has been heated at a rate of 10°C / min in a nitrogen atmosphere and then heated at 350°C for 1 hour, and the imidization rate of the resin is calculated by dividing the imidization index A by the imidization index B. In measuring the imidization rate, the resin to be measured can be obtained from the composition by, for example, the following method: A solution of 1 g of the composition and 2 g of tetrahydrofuran is added to 50 g of methanol or water to cause crystallization, and the resin is precipitated and filtered. The residue is recovered, dissolved in 3.0 g of THF (tetrahydrofuran), and added to 50 g of methanol or water to cause crystallization. The crystallized resin is filtered and dried at 45°C for 20 hours to obtain the resin. Hereinafter, when measuring the physical properties of a specific resin, such as the acid value and amine value, the resin can be obtained and measured in the same manner. The imidization rate can be adjusted to 3 to 40% by appropriately changing the reaction conditions such as the reaction temperature during the production of the specific resin.
[0021] [Acid value] The specific resin preferably has an acid value of the acid group at the neutralization point in the pH range of 7.0 to 12.0 in the range of 0.0010 to 0.3000 mmol / g, more preferably 0.0100 to 0.2000 mmol / g, and even more preferably 0.0300 to 0.1000 mmol / g. As long as the acid value of the entire specific resin contained in the resin composition of the present invention is in the range of 0.0010 to 0.3000 mmol / g, the acid value of each resin constituting the specific resin contained in the composition may be outside the range of 0.0010 to 0.3000 mmol / g. Specifically, two or more polymer precursors outside the range of 0.0010 to 0.3000 mmol / g may be blended to adjust the acid value of the entire specific resin contained in the composition to the range of 0.0010 to 0.3000 mmol / g. In the resin composition of the present invention, preferably 70% by mass or more, more preferably 80% by mass or more, and even more preferably 90% by mass or more of the resin contained in the composition has an acid value in the range of 0.0010 to 0.3000 mmol / g.
[0022] The acid group contained in the specific resin, whose neutralization point has a pH in the range of 7.0 to 12.0, means one whose pH is in the range of 7.0 to 12.0 when measured by the acid value measurement method described in the Examples below, and an example of such an acid group is a carboxyl group. The specific resin contained in the composition of the present invention may or may not contain an acid group other than the acid group having a pH in the range of 7.0 to 12.0. Of the acid groups contained in the specific resin contained in the composition of the present invention, preferably 70 mol % or more, more preferably 80 mol % or more, and even more preferably 90 mol % or more are acid groups having a pH in the range of 7.0 to 12.0. The acid group having a pH in the range of 7.0 to 12.0 may be bonded to a side chain or to the main chain of the specific resin, and preferably to at least a side chain of the specific resin. The neutralization point is measured using sodium hydroxide as a base. If it is difficult to measure the neutralization point using sodium hydroxide, the neutralization point may be measured using calcium hydroxide and converted into sodium hydroxide, which is also considered to be the same as the neutralization point measured using sodium hydroxide.
[0023] The acid value within the above range can be achieved by appropriately adjusting the reaction conditions. In the present invention, it is preferable to produce the specific resin via a synthesis reaction solution having a water content of 50 to 700 ppm by mass. By adopting such a configuration, it is possible to more easily obtain a specific resin that satisfies the predetermined acid value.
[0024] [Amine value] From the viewpoint of storage stability of the composition, the amine value of the specific resin is preferably 0.0010 to 0.3000 mmol / g, more preferably 0.01 to 0.200 mmol / g, and even more preferably 0.0300 to 0.1000 mmol / g. The lower limit of the amine value is not particularly limited, and may be 0.00 mmol / g. The amine value is measured by dissolving 0.62 g of resin in 50 mL of diglyme, adding 10 mL of acetic acid to prepare a measurement solution, and titrating the solution with a 0.01 N (0.01 mol / L) perchloric acid solution in acetic acid to detect the neutralization point.
[0025] [Polymerizable group] The specific resin preferably has a polymerizable group, and more preferably contains a radically polymerizable group. In the resin composition, it is preferable that at least the resin has a polymerizable group, and it is more preferable that the resin has a polymerizable group and also contains a polymerizable compound separate from the resin. The polymerizability of the specific resin is preferably a radical polymerizable group. When the specific resin has a radical polymerizable group, the resin composition of the present invention preferably contains a radical polymerization initiator, more preferably contains both a radical polymerization initiator and a radical crosslinking agent. If necessary, a sensitizer may also be contained. For example, a negative photosensitive film can be formed from such a resin composition. The specific resin may also have a polarity conversion group such as an acid-decomposable group. When the specific resin has an acid-decomposable group, the resin composition preferably contains a photoacid generator. From such a resin composition, for example, a chemically amplified positive-working or negative-working photosensitive film is formed.
[0026] [Examples of resin structures] The specific resin preferably has at least one repeating unit selected from the group consisting of a repeating unit represented by formula (1-b), a repeating unit represented by formula (1-c), and a repeating unit represented by formula (1-d), and may further have a repeating unit represented by formula (1-a).

[Photopolymerization initiator] The photopolymerization initiator is preferably a photoradical polymerization initiator.

[0105] [Two or more types of polymerization initiators, etc.] In addition, it is one of the preferred embodiments of the present invention that the resin composition of the present invention contains two or more types of polymerization initiators. Specifically, the resin composition of the present invention preferably contains a photopolymerization initiator and a thermal polymerization initiator described below, or contains the above-mentioned photoradical polymerization initiator and a photoacid generator.
[0106] By including a photopolymerization initiator and a thermal polymerization initiator described below, pattern formation by exposure becomes possible, and radical polymerization also becomes more likely to proceed during curing by a heating step described below, which may improve performance such as chemical resistance. When a photopolymerization initiator and a thermal polymerization initiator described below are contained, the content of the thermal polymerization initiator is preferably 20 to 70 mass %, more preferably 30 to 60 mass %, relative to the total content of the photopolymerization initiator and the thermal polymerization initiator.

[0108] [Thermal polymerization initiator] Examples of the thermal polymerization initiator include a thermal radical polymerization initiator.

Addition of the thermal radical polymerization initiator can also promote the polymerization reaction of the resin and the polymerizable compound, thereby further improving solvent resistance.
[0109] Specific examples of the thermal radical polymerization initiator include compounds described in paragraphs 0074 to 0118 of JP-A No. 2008-063554, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

The aniline compound is preferably a compound that acts as a sensitizer, and more preferably a compound that has a sensitizing effect on a photoradical polymerization initiator. The sensitizer absorbs specific actinic radiation and enters an electronically excited state. The electronically excited sensitizer comes into contact with a thermal radical polymerization initiator, a photoradical polymerization initiator, or the like, and undergoes actions such as electron transfer, energy transfer, and heat generation. As a result, the thermal radical polymerization initiator or the photoradical polymerization initiator undergoes a chemical change and decomposes, generating a radical, an acid, or a base. Furthermore, if a portion of the aniline compound remains in the cured product, it may quench acids generated within the cured product or acids brought in from outside the cured product, thereby suppressing oxidation of the metal and resulting in improved adhesion.

[0131] <8-Azaadenine> The resin composition of the present invention contains 8-azaadenine.

Furthermore, the amount of 8-azaadenine is preferably 0.01 to 0.6 mass %, more preferably 0.01 to 0.5 mass %, and even more preferably 0.1 to 0.4 mass %, based on the total solids content of the resin composition.

For example, the structure represented by formula (1) may be contained in the structure of a specific resin, or the resin composition may contain a compound that contains a structure represented by formula (1) but is different from the above-mentioned resin (hereinafter also referred to as a "specific compound"). Furthermore, the resin composition may contain a resin having a structure represented by formula (1) and also contain a specific compound.
[0133] When the resin composition of the present invention contains a structure represented by formula (1), the interaction between the specific structure and 8-azaadenine leads to uniform distribution of the 8-azaadenine rust inhibitor at the interface between copper and polyimide, thereby uniformly inhibiting copper corrosion. In particular, when the specific resin has an imide ring structure, the imide ring structure in the specific resin, the specific structure, and the 8-azaadenine form multipoint hydrogen bonds, allowing the 8-azaadenine to be uniformly dispersed in the resin film. Furthermore, the carbonyl group in the imide ring can also interact with copper, resulting in uniform distribution of the 8-azaadenine, which functions as a rust inhibitor, at the interface between copper and polyimide. This is thought to enable uniform inhibition of copper corrosion and prevent short circuits.

Furthermore, when the molar amount is equal to or greater than the above lower limit, it is thought that a cured film with excellent adhesion to metals can be easily obtained. Furthermore, when the molar amount is equal to or less than the upper limit, it is considered that, for example, cyclization of the polyimide precursor is suppressed, scission of the main chain of the specific resin is suppressed, and thus, it is easier to obtain a cured film having excellent storage stability of the composition.

The content is the molar amount of the structure represented by formula (1) relative to the total solid content of the resin composition. For example, when the resin composition contains a resin having a structure represented by formula (1) and also contains a specific compound, the content is the total amount of the structure represented by formula (1) contained in the resin and the structure represented by formula (1) contained in the specific compound.

As for the transfer method, the production methods described in paragraphs 0023 and 0036 to 0051 of JP-A No. 2006-023696 and paragraphs 0096 to 0108 of JP-A No. 2006-047592 can be suitably used. Additionally, a process for removing excess film from the edge of the substrate may be performed, such as edge bead rinsing (EBR) or back rinsing. Before applying the resin composition to the substrate, a pre-wetting step may be employed in which the substrate is coated with various solvents to improve the wettability of the substrate, and then the resin composition is applied.
[0274] <Drying process> After the film-forming step (layer-forming step), the film may be subjected to a step (drying step) of drying the formed film (layer) to remove the solvent. That is, the method for producing a cured product of the present invention may include a drying step of drying the film formed in the film forming step. The drying step is preferably carried out after the film-forming step and before the exposure step. The drying temperature of the film in the drying step is preferably 50 to 150°C, more preferably 70 to 130°C, and even more preferably 90 to 110°C. Drying may also be performed under reduced pressure. The drying time is, for example, 30 seconds to 20 minutes, preferably 1 to 10 minutes, and more preferably 2 to 7 minutes.
[0275] <Exposure process> The film may be subjected to an exposure step to selectively expose the film to light. The method for producing a cured product may include an exposure step of selectively exposing the film formed in the film formation step to light. Selective exposure means that only a portion of the film is exposed, resulting in exposed and unexposed areas of the film. The exposure dose is not particularly limited as long as it can cure the resin composition of the present invention, but for example, it is 50 to 10,000 mJ / cm in terms of exposure energy at a wavelength of 365 nm. 2 is preferred, and 200 to 8,000 mJ / cm 2 is more preferred.
[0276] The exposure wavelength can be appropriately determined within the range of 190 to 1,000 nm, and is preferably 240 to 550 nm.
[0277] Examples of exposure wavelengths, in relation to the light source, include: (1) semiconductor lasers (wavelengths 830 nm, 532 nm, 488 nm, 405 nm, 375 nm, 355 nm, etc.), (2) metal halide lamps, (3) high-pressure mercury lamps (g-line (wavelength 436 nm), h-line (wavelength 405 nm), i-line (wavelength 365 nm), broad (three wavelengths of g, h, and i-line), (4) excimer lasers (KrF excimer lasers (wavelength 248 nm), ArF excimer lasers (wavelength 193 nm), F2 excimer lasers (wavelength 157 nm), (5) extreme ultraviolet rays (EUV) (wavelength 13.6 nm), (6) electron beams, and (7) YAG lasers (second harmonic 532 nm, third harmonic 355 nm). For the resin composition of the present invention, exposure with a high-pressure mercury lamp is particularly preferred, and exposure with i-line is more preferred from the viewpoint of exposure sensitivity. The exposure method is not particularly limited as long as it is a method that exposes at least a part of the film made of the resin composition of the present invention, and examples thereof include exposure using a photomask and exposure by laser direct imaging.
[0278] <Post-exposure baking process> The film may be subjected to a step of heating after exposure (post-exposure baking step). That is, the method for producing a cured product of the present invention may include a post-exposure baking step in which the film exposed in the exposure step is heated. The post-exposure baking step can be carried out after the exposure step and before the development step. The heating temperature in the post-exposure baking step is preferably 50°C to 140°C, more preferably 60°C to 120°C. The heating time in the post-exposure baking step is preferably from 30 seconds to 300 minutes, more preferably from 1 minute to 10 minutes. The temperature rise rate in the post-exposure heating step from the heating start temperature to the maximum heating temperature is preferably 1 to 12°C / min, more preferably 2 to 10°C / min, and even more preferably 3 to 10°C / min. The temperature rise rate may be changed during heating as needed. The heating means in the post-exposure baking step is not particularly limited, and known means such as a hot plate, an oven, and an infrared heater can be used. It is also preferable to carry out the heating in an atmosphere of low oxygen concentration by flowing an inert gas such as nitrogen, helium, or argon.
[0279] <Developing process> After exposure, the film may be subjected to a development step in which it is developed with a developer to form a pattern. That is, the method for producing a cured product of the present invention may include a development step in which the film exposed in the exposure step is developed with a developer to form a pattern. Development removes either the exposed or unexposed portions of the film, forming a pattern. Here, development in which the non-exposed portions of the film are removed by the development process is called negative development, and development in which the exposed portions of the film are removed by the development process is called positive development.
[0280] [Developer] The developer used in the development step may be an aqueous alkaline solution or a developer containing an organic solvent.

[0287] [Rinse solution] When the developer is an alkaline aqueous solution, for example, water can be used as the rinse liquid. When the developer is a developer containing an organic solvent, for example, a solvent different from the solvent contained in the developer (for example, water, an organic solvent different from the organic solvent contained in the developer) can be used as the rinse liquid.
[0288] When the rinse liquid contains an organic solvent, examples of the organic solvent include the same organic solvents as those exemplified when the developer contains an organic solvent. The organic solvent contained in the rinse liquid is preferably different from the organic solvent contained in the developer, and more preferably an organic solvent that has a lower solubility for the pattern than the organic solvent contained in the developer.
[0289] When the rinse solution contains an organic solvent, the organic solvent may be used alone or in combination of two or more. The organic solvent is preferably cyclopentanone, γ-butyrolactone, dimethyl sulfoxide, N-methylpyrrolidone, cyclohexanone, PGMEA, or PGME, more preferably cyclopentanone, γ-butyrolactone, dimethyl sulfoxide, PGMEA, or PGME, and even more preferably cyclohexanone or PGMEA.
[0290] When the rinse solution contains an organic solvent, the organic solvent preferably accounts for 50% by mass or more, more preferably 70% by mass or more, and even more preferably 90% by mass or more of the total mass of the rinse solution, or may account for 100% by mass of the total mass of the rinse solution.
[0291] The rinse solution may further contain other ingredients. Examples of other components include known surfactants and known defoaming agents.
[0292] [Method of supplying rinse liquid] The method of supplying the rinse liquid is not particularly limited as long as it can form a desired pattern, and examples thereof include a method of immersing the substrate in the rinse liquid, a method of supplying the rinse liquid to the substrate by puddling, a method of supplying the rinse liquid to the substrate by showering, and a method of continuously supplying the rinse liquid onto the substrate by means of a straight nozzle or the like. From the viewpoints of the permeability of the rinse liquid, the removability of non-image areas, and production efficiency, the rinse liquid can be supplied using a shower nozzle, a straight nozzle, a spray nozzle, etc., and the method of continuously supplying the rinse liquid using a spray nozzle is preferred, and from the viewpoint of the permeability of the rinse liquid into the image areas, the method of supplying the rinse liquid using a spray nozzle is more preferred.

[0295] <Heating process> The pattern obtained by the development step (if a rinsing step is performed, the pattern after rinsing) may be subjected to a heating step in which the pattern obtained by the development step is heated. That is, the method for producing a cured product of the present invention may include a heating step of heating the pattern obtained in the development step. The method for producing a cured product of the present invention may also include a heating step of heating a pattern obtained by another method without performing a development step, or a film obtained in the film-forming step. In the heating step, the resin such as the polyimide precursor is cyclized to form a resin such as a polyimide. Furthermore, crosslinking of unreacted crosslinkable groups in the specific resin or in a crosslinking agent other than the specific resin also proceeds.

[0297] With regard to the heating in the heating step, reference may be made to paragraphs
[0326] to
[0332] of WO 2023 / 190064, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
[0298] <Metal layer formation process> The pattern obtained by the development step (which is preferably subjected to at least one of the heating step and the post-development exposure step) may be subjected to a metal layer forming step in which a metal layer is formed on the pattern. That is, the method for producing a cured product of the present invention preferably includes a metal layer forming step of forming a metal layer on the pattern obtained by the development step (preferably one that has been subjected to at least one of a heating step and a post-development exposure step).
[0299] The metal layer is not particularly limited, and existing metal species can be used. Examples include copper, aluminum, nickel, vanadium, titanium, chromium, cobalt, gold, tungsten, tin, silver, and alloys containing these metals. Copper and aluminum are more preferred, and copper is even more preferred.
[0300] The method for forming the metal layer is not particularly limited, and existing methods can be applied. For example, the methods described in JP 2007-157879 A, JP 2001-521288 A, JP 2004-214501 A, JP 2004-101850 A, U.S. Patent No. 7,888,181 B2, and U.S. Patent No. 9,177,926 B2 can be used.

For details of these applications, see, for example, Science & Technology Co., Ltd.'s "High Performance Polyimide and Application Technology" (April 2008), edited by Masaaki Kakimoto, CMC Technical Library's "Fundamentals and Development of Polyimide Materials" (November 2011), and the Japan Polyimide and Aromatic Polymer Research Association's "Latest Polyimides: Fundamentals and Applications" (NTS, August 2010).
[0303] The method for producing the cured product of the present invention, or the cured product of the present invention, can also be used for producing printing plates such as offset printing plates or screen printing plates, for etching molded parts, for producing protective lacquers and dielectric layers in electronics, especially microelectronics, etc.
[0304] (Laminate and method for manufacturing laminate) The laminate of the present invention refers to a structure having a plurality of layers each made of the cured product of the present invention. The laminate is a laminate including two or more layers made of a cured product, and may be a laminate including three or more layers. Of the two or more layers made of the cured product contained in the laminate, at least one is a layer made of the cured product of the present invention, and from the viewpoint of suppressing shrinkage of the cured product or deformation of the cured product associated with the shrinkage, it is also preferable that all of the layers made of the cured product contained in the laminate are layers made of the cured product of the present invention.
[0305] That is, the method for producing a laminate of the present invention preferably includes the method for producing a cured product of the present invention, and more preferably includes repeating the method for producing a cured product of the present invention multiple times.
[0306] The laminate of the present invention preferably includes two or more layers made of a cured product, and a metal layer between any two of the layers made of the cured product. The metal layer is preferably formed by the metal layer-forming step. That is, the method for producing a laminate of the present invention preferably further includes a metal layer-forming step of forming a metal layer on the layer made of the cured product, between the steps for producing a cured product that are performed multiple times. Preferred aspects of the metal layer-forming step are as described above. A preferred example of the laminate is a laminate including at least a layer structure in which three layers are laminated in this order: a layer made of a first cured product, a metal layer, and a layer made of a second cured product. It is preferable that the layer made of the first cured product and the layer made of the second cured product are both layers made of the cured product of the present invention. The resin composition of the present invention used to form the layer made of the first cured product and the resin composition of the present invention used to form the layer made of the second cured product may have the same composition or different compositions. The metal layer in the laminate of the present invention is preferably used as metal wiring such as a rewiring layer.
[0307] <Lamination process> The method for producing the laminate of the present invention preferably includes a lamination step. The lamination process is a series of processes including (a) a film-forming process (layer-forming process), (b) an exposure process, (c) a development process, and (d) at least one of a heating process and a post-development exposure process, which are carried out again on the surface of the pattern (resin layer) or metal layer in this order. However, at least one of the (a) film-forming process and the (d) heating process and the post-development exposure process may be repeated. Furthermore, at least one of the (d) heating process and the post-development exposure process may be followed by the (e) metal layer-forming process. Needless to say, the lamination process may further include the drying process and the like as appropriate.
[0308] When a further lamination step is performed after the lamination step, a surface activation treatment step may be further performed after the exposure step, the heating step, or the metal layer forming step. An example of the surface activation treatment is a plasma treatment. Details of the surface activation treatment will be described later.
[0309] The lamination step is preferably carried out 2 to 20 times, and more preferably 2 to 9 times. For example, a structure of 2 to 20 resin layers, such as resin layer / metal layer / resin layer / metal layer / resin layer / metal layer, is preferred, and a structure of 2 to 9 resin layers is more preferred. The above layers may be the same or different in composition, shape, film thickness, etc.
[0310] In the present invention, a particularly preferred embodiment is one in which, after providing a metal layer, a cured product (resin layer) of the resin composition of the present invention is further formed so as to cover the metal layer. Specific examples include an embodiment in which the following steps are repeated in this order: (a) a film-forming step, (b) an exposure step, (c) a development step, (d) at least one of a heating step and a post-development exposure step, and (e) a metal layer-forming step; or an embodiment in which the following steps are repeated in this order: (a) a film-forming step, (d) at least one of a heating step and a post-development exposure step, and (e) a metal layer-forming step. By alternately performing the lamination step of laminating a resin composition layer (resin layer) of the present invention and the metal layer-forming step, the resin composition layer (resin layer) of the present invention and a metal layer can be alternately laminated.
[0311] (Surface activation treatment process) The method for producing a laminate of the present invention preferably includes a surface activation treatment step of subjecting at least a portion of the metal layer and the resin composition layer to a surface activation treatment. The surface activation treatment step is usually carried out after the metal layer formation step, but the surface activation treatment step may be carried out on the resin composition layer after the above-mentioned development step (preferably after at least one of the heating step and the post-development exposure step) and then the metal layer formation step may be carried out. The surface activation treatment may be performed on at least a portion of the metal layer, or on at least a portion of the resin composition layer after exposure, or on at least a portion of both the metal layer and the resin composition layer after exposure. The surface activation treatment is preferably performed on at least a portion of the metal layer, and it is preferable to perform the surface activation treatment on part or all of the region of the metal layer on which the resin composition layer is formed. In this way, by performing the surface activation treatment on the surface of the metal layer, it is possible to improve the adhesion with the resin composition layer (film) provided on the surface. The surface activation treatment is preferably performed on a part or all of the resin composition layer (resin layer) after exposure. By performing the surface activation treatment on the surface of the resin composition layer in this way, it is possible to improve adhesion with a metal layer or a resin layer provided on the surface that has been surface-activated. In particular, when negative development is performed, for example, if the resin composition layer is cured, it is less susceptible to damage due to the surface treatment, and adhesion is likely to be improved. The surface activation treatment can be carried out, for example, by the method described in paragraph 0415 of WO 2021 / 112189, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

The materials, amounts used, ratios, processing details, processing procedures, etc. shown in the following examples can be changed as appropriate without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of the present invention is not limited to the specific examples shown below. Unless otherwise specified, "parts" and "%" are based on mass.
[0314] <Polymer synthesis> [Synthesis Example P-1: Synthesis of Resin (P-1)] 93.07 g of 4,4'-oxydiphthalic dianhydride (ODPA) and 62.04 g of 3,3',4,4'-biphenyltetracarboxylic dianhydride (BPDA) were placed in a separable flask, and 134.0 g of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) and 400 mL of γ-butyrolactone were added. 79.1 g of pyridine was added with stirring at room temperature to obtain a reaction mixture. After the heat generated by the reaction had subsided, the mixture was allowed to cool to room temperature and then allowed to stand for an additional 16 hours. Next, under ice cooling, a solution of 206.3 g of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) dissolved in 180 mL of γ-butyrolactone was added to the reaction mixture over 40 minutes with stirring. Subsequently, a suspension of 96.0 g of 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl ether suspended in 350 mL of γ-butyrolactone was added over 60 minutes with stirring. After further stirring at room temperature for 2 hours, 30 mL of ethyl alcohol was added and stirred for 1 hour. Then, 400 mL of γ-butyrolactone was added. The precipitate that formed in the reaction mixture was collected by filtration to obtain a reaction solution. The resulting reaction solution was added to 3 L of ethyl alcohol to produce a precipitate consisting of a crude polymer. The produced crude polymer was collected by filtration and dissolved in 1.5 L of tetrahydrofuran to obtain a crude polymer solution. The obtained crude polymer solution was added dropwise to 28 L of water to precipitate the polymer, and the resulting precipitate was collected by filtration and dried in vacuum to obtain powdered resin P-1. Resin P -1 is a structure containing a repeating unit represented by the following formula (P-1): 1The resin P-1 was confirmed by H-NMR. The weight average molecular weight, imidization rate, esterification rate, and amine value are shown in the table below.

[0316] [Synthesis Examples P-2 to P-37: Synthesis of Resins (P-2) to (P-37)] Resins (P-3) to (P-37) were synthesized in the same manner as for resin (P-1), except that the types and charging ratios of the acid anhydrides and diamines used as raw materials in Synthesis Example P-1 were appropriately changed. Furthermore, in the synthesis of resin (P-2), dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) was replaced with diisopropylcarbodiimide. Resins (P-2) to (P-37) are resins having repeating units represented by the following formulas (P-2) to (P-37), respectively. In the following structures, the symbols in parentheses represent the values listed in the table below, and represent the molar ratio of each structure. The structure of each repeating unit is as follows: 1 The weight average molecular weight (Mw), imidization rate, esterification rate, acid value, and amine value of these resins are shown in the table below. Resins having the same structure but different Mw, imidization rate, esterification rate, acid value, amine value, and specific structure content were obtained by appropriately changing the amounts of raw materials used, reaction temperature, and reaction time.

[0317] [Method for measuring weight average molecular weight] In the above and following synthesis examples, unless otherwise specified, the weight average molecular weight and number average molecular weight were measured by the following methods. GPC measurements were performed using a high-speed GPC system (HLC-8420GPC, manufactured by Tosoh Corporation) with a TSK guard column Super AW-H (4.6 mm × 35 mm) and two TSKgel Super AWM-H (4.6 mm × 150 mm) columns connected in series. A 0.01 mol / L solution of lithium bromide in NMP (N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone) was used as the eluent.
[0318] [Method for measuring imidization rate] The resin was dissolved in γ-butyrolactone, diluted to 2,000 mPa·s, and applied to a silicon wafer by spin coating to form a resin layer. The silicon wafer with the resulting resin layer applied was dried on a hot plate at 110°C for 5 minutes, yielding a resin layer with a uniform thickness of approximately 15 μm after film formation on the silicon wafer. The resin layer was measured by the ATR method using a NicoletiS20 (manufactured by Thermofisher) in the measurement range of 4000 to 700 cm -1 The measurement was carried out 50 times. -1 Around (1350~1450cm -1 (If there are multiple peaks, the peak with the highest intensity) and 1500 cm -1 Around (1460~1550cm -1The imidization index B was calculated in the same manner for a film that was heated at a heating rate of 10°C / min in a nitrogen atmosphere and heated at 350°C for 1 hour, and the imidization rate of the resin was calculated by dividing the imidization index A by the imidization index B.
[0319] [Method for determining the esterification rate] The esterification rate of the resin used in each example or comparative example was measured by the following method. 0.09 g of the resin was dissolved in 0.9 g of DMSO-d6 (dimethyl sulfoxide-d6) and subjected to H-NMR analysis (Bruker Avance III HD). The content of amic acid ester structures (esterification rate) relative to the total molar amount of amic acid structures and amic acid ester structures in the resin was calculated from the ratio of the integral values of the signals derived from the carboxylic acid and the ester structures.
[0320] [Method for determining acid value] The acid value of the resin used in each example or comparative example was measured by the following method. 0.30 g of resin was dissolved in 80 mL of NMP, and 5 mL of water was added to prepare a measurement solution. The solution was titrated with 0.01 N (0.01 mol / L) potassium hydroxide (KOH) solution, and the acid value was calculated from the peak in the pH range of 7.0 to 12.0. The measurement results for each resin are shown in the "Acid value (mmol / g)" column in the table.
[0321] [Method for determining amine value] The amine value of the resin used in each example or comparative example was measured by the following method. 0.60 g of resin was dissolved in 50 mL of diglyme, and 10 mL of acetic acid was added to prepare a measurement solution. The solution was titrated with a 0.01 N (0.01 mol / L) perchloric acid solution in acetic acid to detect the neutralization point, thereby measuring the amine value of the resin. The measurement results for each resin are shown in the "amine value (mmol / g)" column in the table.
[0322] [Method for quantifying the amount (mol%) of specific structures relative to the amount of 8-azaadenine (H-1)] The amount (mol %) of the specific structure relative to the amount of 8-azaadenine (H-1) in the resin composition was measured by the following method. The resin used in each example or comparative example was dissolved in d6-DMSO. 1 The molar amount of the specific structure contained in the resin was quantified by H-NMR analysis. Assuming that the specific structure is contained only in the resin component, the ratio of the molar amount of the specific structure contained in the resin quantified above to the molar amount of 8-azaadenine added to the composition was calculated from the relationship between the molar amount of the specific structure contained in the resin quantified above and the molar amount of 8-azaadenine added to the composition. The results are shown in Table 2 in the column "Amount of specific structure relative to amount of 8-azaadenine (H-1) (mol %)."
[0323] [Table 1]
[0324] <Examples and Comparative Examples> The resin compositions used in the examples and comparative examples were each obtained by mixing the components shown in Table 2 below. Specifically, the content of each component shown in Table 2 was the amount (parts by mass) shown in the "parts by mass" column in each column of the table. The obtained resin compositions and comparative compositions were pressure-filtered using a polytetrafluoroethylene filter with a pore size of 0.8 μm. The evaluation results for each resin composition are shown in Table 3. In Table 3, the notation "-" indicates that the composition does not contain the corresponding component.

[0345] <Evaluation> [Evaluation of copper oxide film after biased highly accelerated stress test (bHAST)] In each of the examples and comparative examples, a bias application highly accelerated stress test was carried out using the composition shown in Table 3. Biased highly accelerated stress tests were performed using a test vehicle. The test vehicle was constructed by laminating an SiO2 layer, a patterned Ti layer, and a patterned 2 μmL / S (line and space) comb-shaped Cu wiring in that order on a Si wafer (silicon wafer), and the wiring was covered with the cured product of each composition. The test vehicle for the test was obtained by the following procedure. First, the SiO 2 Each composition was applied to the wafer and Cu wiring, and baked at 100°C for 5 minutes to form a coating film. Thereafter, the coating film was exposed to broadband light at a dose of 800 mJ / cm. 2 The entire surface was exposed to light using a fluorine-containing solution, and the film was developed using cyclopentanone. After that, PGMEA was puddled onto the developed film as a rinse solution, and the film was left to stand for 60 seconds. After that, the film was spin-dried and the rinse solution was removed to obtain a pattern. Thereafter, the coating film was cured by baking at 230° C. for 120 minutes, and a test vehicle was obtained. A biased highly accelerated stress test was carried out using each test vehicle. The biased highly accelerated stress test was carried out using a Hirayama oven at 130°C / 80%RH (relative humidity) / 48h (48 hours). The voltage applied in the biased highly accelerated stress test was set to 2.5V. After the test, the 2μm L / S Cu wiring of the test beak was cut perpendicular to the wiring, and the thickness of the copper oxide film formed at the interface between the Cu wiring and the insulating film was observed using a scanning electron microscope. The thickness of the copper oxide film was measured at 20 random points, and the average value was taken as the thickness of the copper oxide film formed. The evaluation results are shown in the "bHAST" column in the table. -Evaluation criteria- A: The thickness of the copper oxide film is less than 10 nm. B: The thickness of the copper oxide film is 10 nm or more and less than 20 nm. C: The thickness of the copper oxide film is 20 nm or more and less than 50 nm. D: The thickness of the copper oxide film is 50 nm or more. [Evaluation of resolution] The resin composition or comparative composition prepared in each Example or Comparative Example was applied in the form of a layer by spin coating to the surface of the thin copper layer of a resin substrate having a thin copper layer formed on its surface, and dried at 110°C for 5 minutes to form a resin composition layer having a thickness of 4 μm after film formation. The obtained resin composition layer was then irradiated with 100 to 800 mJ / cm using an i-line stepper (Canon: FPA-3000i5, NA=0.5, σ=0.7) using a square via mask having a pattern formed in 0.5 μm increments from 0.5 to 10 μm. 2 in the range of 50 mJ / cm 2 The film was exposed to each exposure dose, developed with cyclopentanone until the unexposed areas were removed, rinsed with PGMEA for 30 seconds, and then heated at a rate of 10°C / min under a nitrogen atmosphere to 230°C for 1 hour. The minimum opening mask diameter of the obtained cured product was determined by observing the cross section of the opening pattern portion with a scanning microscope S-4800 (manufactured by Hitachi High-Technologies Corporation) and evaluated according to the following evaluation criteria. The minimum opening mask diameter was defined as the smallest mask diameter among those in which an opening pattern was formed with at least one of the above exposure doses. In addition, the minimum opening mask diameter was determined by observing the cross section of the opening pattern with at least one of the above exposure doses at 400 mJ / cm. 2 The remaining film ratio (%, film thickness after development / film thickness before development x 100) was calculated from the film thickness before and after development when exposed to light at 100°C. A remaining film ratio of less than 80% is not desirable for forming a rewiring layer, regardless of the aperture mask size. The evaluation results are shown in the "Resolution" column in the table. (Evaluation criteria) A: The minimum opening mask diameter was 3 μm or less, and the residual film rate after development was 90% or more. B: The minimum opening mask diameter was more than 3 μm and 4 μm or less, and the residual film rate after development was 90% or more. C: The minimum opening mask diameter was more than 4 μm and 5 μm or less, and the residual film rate after development was 90% or more. D: The minimum opening mask diameter was more than 5 μm or the residual film rate after development was less than 80%.
[0346] [Chemical resistance] The resin composition or comparative composition prepared in each Example or Comparative Example was applied to a silicon wafer by spin coating in the form of a layer, and dried at 110°C for 5 minutes to form a resin composition layer having a film thickness of 15 μm. Next, the resin composition layer was exposed to 400 mJ / cm using a broadband exposure machine (UX-1000SN-EH01 manufactured by Ushio Inc.). 2 The entire surface was exposed to light using a vacuum oven. Next, a heat treatment was carried out in a clean oven (KOYO, CLH-21) under an N2 atmosphere at 230°C for 1 hour to obtain a cured film of the resin composition or comparative composition. The obtained cured film was immersed in the following chemicals under the following immersion conditions, and the remaining film ratio (film thickness after immersion / film thickness before immersion x 100 (%)) was calculated from the film thickness before and after immersion. Evaluation was carried out according to the following evaluation criteria, and the evaluation results are recorded in the column for "Chemical resistance." It can be said that the higher the remaining film ratio, the better the chemical resistance. Chemical: 90:10 mixture of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and 2.38% by weight aqueous solution of tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) Immersion conditions: 60°C for 30 minutes -Evaluation criteria- A: The remaining film rate was 95% or more. B: The residual film rate was 80% or more and less than 95%.
[0347] [Film forming property] The resin compositions or comparative compositions prepared in each Example or Comparative Example were each applied to a silicon wafer by spin coating at 3000 rpm in an environment of 23°C temperature and 50% humidity, and the film surface was visually observed immediately after spin coating and after being left to stand for 5 minutes after spin coating, and evaluated according to the following evaluation criteria. The evaluation results are shown in the "Film Formability" column in the table. -Evaluation criteria- A: No cloudiness was observed in the film immediately after spin coating or after standing. B: No clouding of the film was observed immediately after spin coating, but clouding of the film was observed after standing.
[0348] [Storage stability] The resin compositions or comparative compositions prepared in each example or comparative example were stored in a 23°C thermostatic chamber for 168 hours, and the occurrence of precipitation and the rate of viscosity change = |((viscosity after storage / viscosity before storage) x 100)| were evaluated according to the following evaluation criteria. Viscosity measurements were carried out at 23°C using a TV-100E viscometer (manufactured by Toki Sangyo Co., Ltd.). The evaluation results are shown in the "Storage stability" column in the table. (Evaluation criteria) A: The viscosity change rate was less than 2% and no precipitation was observed. B: The viscosity change rate was 2% or more and less than 5%, and no precipitation was observed. C: The viscosity change rate was 5% or more and less than 10%, and no precipitation was observed.
[0349] The above results show that the use of the resin composition of the present invention improves reliability performance in the bias-applied highly accelerated stress test. In contrast, when a composition not containing compound H-1 is used or when the esterification rate of resin A is outside the specified range, reliability performance in the bias-applied highly accelerated stress test is significantly inferior.
[0350] Furthermore, by using the resin composition according to the present invention, a cured film excellent in resolution, chemical resistance, film-forming properties, and storage stability was obtained.
