Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a heteropolyacid salt or a mixture thereof in which the defect site is modified. [Background technology]

[0002] Polyacids have the general formula [M x O y ] n- (wherein x, y, and n are all natural numbers). The metal atom M constituting the polyacid is called a polyatom, and examples thereof include Mo (hexavalent or pentavalent), W (hexavalent or pentavalent), V (pentavalent), Nb (pentavalent), and Ta (pentavalent). Polyacids include isopolyacids composed of the polyatom M and an oxygen acid, and polyacids containing different types of heteroatoms X (for example, P as the heteroatom X) in addition to the polyatom M and oxygen. 5+ , Si 4+ , Ge 4+ , B 3+ , S 6+ Heteropolyacids ([X w M x O y ] n- (wherein w, x, y, and n are all natural numbers)

[0003] It is also known that polyacids exist in multiple defect species, where a portion of the basic skeleton is missing. The terminal oxygen atoms at the defect sites, where a portion of the basic skeleton of a polyacid is missing, have a certain degree of negative charge density on the oxygen atoms, making them highly reactive and nucleophilic. Therefore, by reacting these terminal oxygen atoms with electrophilic atoms or molecules, various functional polyacid complexes and organic / inorganic hybrid structures can be formed.

[0004] Patent Document 1 discloses a polyoxometalate compound having a metal-substituted polyoxometalate, which comprises a polyoxometalate having defect sites, a substituting metal atom (divalent platinum or palladium) introduced into the defect sites, and an organic ligand.

The compound having the acid-dissociable group can increase the polarity of the compound by dissociating the acid-dissociable group under the action of an acid, thereby generating the polar group. This can change the solubility of the compound in the developer. More specifically, when a developer with high polarity such as an alkaline aqueous solution is used as the developer, the solubility of the compound in the developer relatively increases, while when an organic developer with low polarity is used as the developer, the solubility of the compound in the developer relatively decreases. The polar group is preferably a hydroxy group (including a phenolic hydroxy group) or a carboxy group.

[0090] [1. Heteropolyacid salt or mixture thereof having modified defect sites (general formula (I)] The heteropolyacid salt or mixture thereof having modified defect sites according to this embodiment is represented by general formula (I). (A m+ ) a (C (am)- ) (I) [In formula (I), A m+ are each independently H + , metal ions, NH4 + , an onium cation, or an onium dication; C (am)- represents a heteropolyanion having a defect site, the defect site of which has been modified, the heteropolyacid anion having a defect site and modified at the defect site contains a plurality of polar groups having an acid-dissociable group, m is an integer between 1 and 5, and a is a real number greater than 0.

[0091] The mixture of heteropolyacid salts having modified defect sites represented by the general formula (I) contains a plurality of types of A m+ In the above case, multiple types of A may be included. m+ The content ratio can be determined by, for example, NMR analysis, XRF analysis, XPS analysis, or the like.

[0092] The heteropolyacid salt or mixture thereof having modified defect sites according to this embodiment has a cation moiety (A m+ When the cation moiety contains an onium cation or an onium dication, it may function as a photoacid generator that generates an acid upon exposure to actinic rays (including visible light, ultraviolet light, DUV, XUV, EUV, X-rays, electron beams, α-rays, β-rays, γ-rays, etc.). When the cation moiety does not contain an onium cation or an onium dication, a known or commonly used photoacid generator may be added.

[0093] In addition, the heteropolyacid salt or mixture thereof in which the defect site is modified according to this embodiment has an anion portion (C (am)- ) contains a plurality of polar groups having an acid-dissociable group, i.e., at least two or more polar groups having an acid-dissociable group, and therefore the solubility in a developer can be drastically changed by the action of an acid. The number of polar groups having an acid-dissociable group contained in the anion moiety is not particularly limited, and is, for example, preferably 2 to 12, more preferably 4 to 10, and even more preferably 4 to 8. From the viewpoint of ease of synthesis, the number of polar groups having an acid-dissociable group contained in the anion moiety is preferably 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, or 12, more preferably 4, 6, 8, or 10, and even more preferably 4, 6, or 8. Furthermore, by adjusting the bulkiness, hydrophobicity, liposolubility, etc. of the acid-labile group, it is possible to adjust the range of change in physical properties, such as solubility in a developer, between the exposed and unexposed areas to actinic rays, etc.

[0094] For this reason, the heteropolyacid salt or mixture thereof in which the defect sites have been modified according to this embodiment can be suitably used as a functional building block in which the physical properties, such as solubility in a developer, are significantly different between the exposed portion to actinic rays or the like and the unexposed portion.

[0241] 2. Preparation of test film-forming materials Test film-forming materials (R-1) to (R-26) were prepared by blending the polyacid salts (A-1) to (A-26) synthesized above and an organic solvent (cyclopentanone) in the amounts (unit: parts by mass) shown in Tables 1 to 3 below.

[0242] [Table 1]

[0243] [Table 2]

[0244] [Table 3]

[0245] [3. Formation of test film and its evaluation] Each test film-forming material (R-1) to (R-26) was applied using a spinner to an 8-inch silicon substrate that had been treated with hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS), and then post-applied bake (PAB) was performed on a hot plate at 120°C for 60 seconds, followed by drying to form a 50 nm thick resist film. The thickness of the test films (M-1) to (M-26) formed was measured using a film thickness measuring device (JA Woollam's "M-2000D").

[0246] <Evaluation of remaining film rate before exposure and after development> The test films (M-1) to (M-26) were subjected to alkaline development for 60 seconds using a 2.38% by mass TMAH aqueous solution (trade name "NMD-3", manufactured by Tokyo Ohka Kogyo Co., Ltd.) at 23° C., followed by rinsing with pure water for 15 seconds. The film thickness (average thickness) of each test film after development was measured using the film thickness measuring device described above, and the reduction rate of film thickness before and after development was calculated according to the following formula. The pre-exposure film remaining rate of each test film was also evaluated according to the following criteria. The results are shown in Tables 4 to 6. Film thickness reduction rate = ((film thickness before development - film thickness after development) / film thickness before development) x 100 (%) A: The film thickness reduction rate is 0% or more but less than 10% B: The film thickness reduction rate is 10% or more but less than 20% C: Film thickness reduction rate is 20% or more

[0247] <Evaluation of film remaining rate after exposure and development> The test films (M-1) to (M-26) were exposed to light by open frame exposure using a KrF exposure device (NIKON Corporation's "NSR-S203B", NA (numerical aperture) = 0.68, σ = 0.75) at an exposure dose of 100 mJ / cm 2 The exposure was carried out under the following exposure conditions. After the exposure, a post-exposure bake (PEB) treatment was carried out at 100° C. for 60 seconds.

[0248] After the PEB treatment, each test film was subjected to alkaline development for 60 seconds using a 2.38% by mass TMAH aqueous solution (trade name "NMD-3", manufactured by Tokyo Ohka Kogyo Co., Ltd.) at 23° C., followed by rinsing with pure water for 15 seconds. The film thickness (average thickness) of each test film after development was measured using the film thickness measuring device, and the remaining film ratio of the test film after development was calculated according to the following formula. The remaining film ratio of each test film after exposure and development was also evaluated according to the following criteria. The results are shown in Tables 4 to 6. Residual film rate after development = (film thickness after development / film thickness before development) x 100 (%) A: Residual film rate after development is 0% or more and less than 10% B: Residual film rate after development is 10% or more but less than 20% C: Residual film rate after development is 20% or more

[0249] [Table 4]

[0250] [Table 5]

[0251] [Table 6]

[0252] The results in Tables 4 to 6 show that the solubility in the developer before and after exposure changes dramatically in all cases: test films (M-1) to (M-5) and (M-8) to (M-22) containing polyacid salts (A-1) to (A-5) or (A-8) to (A-22) having heteropolyacid anions modified with defect sites in which four polar groups having an acid-dissociable group have been introduced; test films (M-23) and (M-24) containing polyacid salts (A-23) or (A-24) having heteropolyacid anions modified with defect sites in which six polar groups having an acid-dissociable group have been introduced; and test films (M-25) and (M-26) containing polyacid salts (A-25) or (A-26) having heteropolyacid anions modified with defect sites in which eight polar groups having an acid-dissociable group have been introduced. On the other hand, when the test film (M-6) contains a polyacid salt (A-6) having a heteropolyacid anion without a polar group having an acid-dissociable group introduced therein, the evaluation of the residual film rate after exposure and development was not good, and it was found that the residual film rate after development was 20% or more.

[0253] Furthermore, the results in Tables 4 to 6 show that when the test film (M-7) contained a polyacid salt (A-7) having a heteropolyacid anion modified with defect sites in which two polar groups having an acid-dissociable group had been introduced, the remaining film rate before exposure and after development was evaluated as B. This is thought to be due to the fact that the polyacid salts (A-1) to (A-5) and (A-8) to (A-26) contain four or more bulky, fat-soluble acid-dissociable groups, whereas the polyacid salt (A-7) contains only two such acid-dissociable groups.

[0254] Furthermore, the above results show that in heteropolyacid salts in which the defect sites are modified, such as the polyacid salts (A-1) to (A-5) and (A-7) to (A-26), when an onium cation is contained in the cation moiety, the polyacid salt also functions as a photoacid generator that generates acid upon exposure to light.

[0255] Furthermore, it was found that the sensitivity to actinic rays and the like can be adjusted by incorporating an onium cation into which an electron-withdrawing group such as a fluorine atom, an iodine atom, or a trifluoromethyl group has been introduced, into the cation moiety of a heteropolyacid salt whose defect sites have been modified, as in the polyacid salts (A-8) to (A-12).

[0256] Furthermore, it was found that by incorporating an onium cation into which a polar group having an acid-dissociable group has been introduced into the cation moiety of a heteropolyacid salt in which the defect sites have been modified, as in the polyacid salts (A-13) to (A-15), it is possible to further adjust the physical properties, such as the solubility in a developer, between the exposed and unexposed areas to actinic rays or the like.

[0257] In addition, it was found that organic / inorganic hybrid polyacid structures having similar functionality can be provided not only when one defective Keggin type undecatungstosilicate is used as in the polyacid salts (A-1) to (A-5), (A-8) to (A-17), (A-23), and (A-25), but also when one defective Keggin type undecatungstophosphate is used as in the polyacid salts (A-18) to (A-22), (A-24), and (A-26).

[0258] From the above, it can be seen that heteropolyacid salts in which defect sites have been modified by introducing four or more polar groups having an acid-labile group can drastically change physical properties, such as solubility in a developer, between the exposed and unexposed areas to actinic rays, etc., and are therefore useful as functional building blocks with the above-mentioned functions.
