Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a photosensitive resin composition, and further to a photosensitive film, a semiconductor package substrate, a semiconductor device, and a method for producing a semiconductor package substrate, which are obtained by using the photosensitive resin composition. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventionally, polyimide resins, which have excellent heat resistance and insulating properties, have been used for insulating layers and the like of semiconductor devices. In addition, since polyimide resins have low solubility in solvents, they are used in the form of polyimide precursors in photosensitive resin compositions, and after forming insulating layers and the like, the polyimide precursors are cyclized to form insulating layers (see, for example, Patent Document 1). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] JP 2003-084435 A DISCLOSURE OF THEINVENTION [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] In recent years, with the increase in communication speed and capacity in communication devices, photosensitive resin compositions used in semiconductor package substrates for communication devices are also required to have excellent dielectric properties, such as low dielectric constant and dielectric dissipation factor of the cured product, as well as excellent resolution.

[0006] In addition, when a via hole is formed by exposing and developing a photosensitive resin composition, it is not easy to control the shape of the via hole. For example, in a negative photosensitive resin composition, if the radical reaction due to exposure is insufficient or excessive, the shape of the via hole may deteriorate.

[0147] <(2B) Crosslinking agent> The photosensitive resin composition contains a crosslinking agent (2B) as the component (2B). However, the component (2B) does not include those corresponding to the components (2A) and (2D). When the photosensitive resin composition is irradiated with actinic rays and radicals are generated from the photoradical generator, a crosslinking reaction of the component (2B) occurs, and the composition becomes insoluble in the developer. Therefore, during development, the photosensitive resin composition can be selectively removed from areas other than those where the crosslinking reaction has progressed, and a negative pattern can be advantageously formed. The component (2B) may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0148] As the component (2B), a compound capable of promoting a crosslinking reaction during development can be used. Such a compound is preferably a compound having an ethylenically unsaturated bond, and more preferably a compound having an ethylenically unsaturated bond and at least one carbon atom at the α-position of the ethylenically unsaturated bond is bonded to a carbonyl group or an aromatic group.

The "(meth)acryloyl group" includes a methacryloyl group, an acryloyl group, and a combination thereof. The (2B) component contains an ethylenically unsaturated group, and therefore is capable of photoradical polymerization.

The number of ethylenically unsaturated groups per molecule of component (2B) is preferably at least 1, and more preferably at least 2. Furthermore, when component (2B) contains two or more ethylenically unsaturated groups per molecule, those ethylenically unsaturated groups may be the same or different.

[0164] <(2C) Photoradical generator> The photosensitive resin composition contains a photoradical generator (2C) as the component (2C). The component (2C) generates radicals when irradiated with actinic rays, and the portion of the photosensitive resin composition where crosslinking reaction or the like has occurred due to the radicals does not dissolve in the developer. Therefore, during development, it becomes possible to selectively remove the photosensitive resin composition from the portion other than the portion where the crosslinking reaction has progressed, and a negative pattern can be advantageously formed. The component (2C) may be used alone or in combination of two or more. In addition, the component (2C) does not include those corresponding to the above-mentioned components (2A) to (2B) and the below-mentioned components (2D) to (2E).

[0166] The component (2C) may be a commercially available product, such as "Irgacure-OXE02" or "Irgacure-OXE04" manufactured by BASF.

[0167] In order to prominently obtain the effects of the present invention, the content of the component (2C) per 100 parts by mass of the component (2A) is preferably at least 0.1 part by mass, more preferably at least 0.5 parts by mass, and even more preferably at least 1 part by mass, and is preferably at most 20 parts by mass, more preferably at most 17 parts by mass, and even more preferably at most 15 parts by mass.

[0168] From the viewpoint of prominently obtaining the effects of the present invention, the content of the component (2C) is preferably 0.1% by mass or more, more preferably 0.5% by mass or more, and even more preferably 1% by mass or more, when the non-volatile components of the photosensitive resin composition are taken as 100% by mass, and is preferably 20% by mass or less, more preferably 17% by mass or less, and even more preferably 15% by mass or less.

[0169] <(2D) Allyl compounds having an ethylenically unsaturated bond, in which the carbon atom at the α-position of the ethylenically unsaturated bond is bonded to a group selected from a hydrocarbon group and a hydrogen atom, and at least one of the groups bonded to the carbon atom at the α-position of the ethylenically unsaturated bond is a hydrogen atom> The photosensitive resin composition contains, as component (2D), an allyl compound having an ethylenically unsaturated bond, the carbon atom at the α-position of the ethylenically unsaturated bond being bonded to a group selected from a hydrocarbon group and a hydrogen atom, and at least one of the groups bonded to the carbon atom at the α-position of the ethylenically unsaturated bond being a hydrogen atom. The component (2D) excludes the above-mentioned components (2A) to (2C) and the component (2E) described below. The carbon atom at the α-position of the ethylenically unsaturated bond is the first carbon atom adjacent to the carbon atom bonded by a carbon-carbon double bond, and specifically, for example, as shown in the following formula (d1), it indicates the carbon atom (C1 to C4) adjacent to the carbon atom bonded by a carbon-carbon double bond. [ka]

[0170] When the photosensitive resin composition is negative type, the exposed portion is usually less soluble in the developer due to the radical reaction. Therefore, the unexposed portion is removed by the developer, and only the exposed portion remains. The present inventors have found that if the radical reaction proceeds excessively, the radical reaction proceeds to the unexposed portion as well. The unexposed portion where the radical reaction has proceeded is not sufficiently cured because the amount of exposure is less than that of the exposed portion, but the solubility in the developer is reduced due to the progress of the radical reaction. Therefore, the unexposed portion where the radical reaction has proceeded dissolves slower in the developer than the unexposed portion. In addition, development is usually carried out from the mask side surface of the photosensitive resin composition layer. Therefore, in the unexposed portion where the radical reaction has proceeded during development, the portion near the mask side surface can be removed by development, while the portion near the surface opposite to the mask side (the via bottom) can remain without being removed by development. In this case, the via hole shape obtained by exposure and development is tapered, with the diameter larger closer to the mask side surface and smaller closer to the via bottom. Conventionally, this has resulted in a deterioration in the shape of the via hole. In contrast, in the present invention, the (2D) component functions as a chain transfer agent by the hydrogen atom bonded to the carbon atom at the α-position of the ethylenically unsaturated bond, and can control the radical reaction. Therefore, by including the (2D) component in the photosensitive resin composition, the radical reaction is controlled. As a result, it is possible to prevent the radical reaction from progressing to the unexposed portion, and it is possible to obtain a cured product with a good via hole shape. Note that, since the (2E) component functions as a crosslinking agent when the carbon atom at the α-position of the ethylenically unsaturated bond is bonded to a carbonyl group or an aromatic group, the carbon atom at the α-position of the ethylenically unsaturated bond present in the molecule is not bonded to a carbonyl group or an aromatic group.

[0171] When the component (2D) has multiple ethylenically unsaturated bonds, it is sufficient that at least one of the multiple α-position carbon atoms is bonded to a hydrogen atom, and in this case, the other α-position carbon atoms may be bonded to groups other than a carbonyl group and an aromatic group. The component (2D) is preferably an allyl compound in which the carbon atoms at the α-position of the ethylenically unsaturated bonds are composed only of groups selected from hydrocarbon groups and hydrogen atoms, and at least one of the groups bonded to the carbon atoms at the α-position of the ethylenically unsaturated bonds is a hydrogen atom.

[0172] The component (2D) is preferably represented by the following formula (D-1). [ka] (In the formula, R 1d , R 2d , and R 3d each independently represents a hydrogen atom or a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms. * represents a bond.)

[0213] <Process (I)> Methods for forming the photosensitive resin composition layer include a method in which a resin varnish containing the photosensitive resin composition is directly applied onto the circuit board, and a method in which the above-mentioned photosensitive film is used.

[0216] The resin varnish may be applied in several steps, may be applied in one step, or may be applied by combining a plurality of different methods. Among them, the die coating method is preferable because of its excellent uniformity of application. In addition, in order to avoid contamination by foreign matter, it is preferable to carry out the application process in an environment where foreign matter is unlikely to be generated, such as a clean room.

[0217] After the resin varnish is applied, it is dried, if necessary, in a hot air oven or far-infrared oven, etc. The drying conditions are preferably 80° C. to 120° C. for 3 minutes to 13 minutes. In this manner, a photosensitive resin composition layer is formed on the circuit board.

The surface of the conductor layer may be previously roughened by blackening, copper etching, or the like.

[0219] On the other hand, when a photosensitive film is used, the photosensitive resin composition layer side is laminated on one or both sides of the circuit board using a vacuum laminator. In the lamination process, if the photosensitive film has a protective film, the protective film is removed, and then the photosensitive film and the circuit board are preheated as necessary, and the photosensitive resin composition layer is pressure-bonded to the circuit board while being pressurized and heated. For the photosensitive film, a method of laminating the film to the circuit board under reduced pressure by a vacuum lamination method is preferably used.

Examples of active light include ultraviolet light, visible light, electron beams, and X-rays, and ultraviolet light is particularly preferred. The irradiation dose of ultraviolet light is approximately 10 mJ / cm. 2 ~1000mJ / cm 2There are two types of exposure methods: contact exposure, in which a mask pattern is brought into close contact with the circuit board, and non-contact exposure, in which parallel light is used for exposure without contact, and either method may be used.

[0222] In step (II), vias can be formed using a via pattern such as a round hole pattern as a mask pattern. The via diameter (opening diameter) is preferably 100 μm or less, more preferably 50 μm or less, and even more preferably 30 μm or less. The lower limit is not particularly limited, but may be 0.1 μm or more, 0.5 μm or more, etc.

[0223] <Process (III)> After the exposure step, a development step is carried out in which the unexposed portions of the photosensitive resin composition layer are removed with a developer, thereby forming a pattern. The development is usually carried out by wet development.

[0224] In the case of the wet development, a developer that is safe, stable, and easy to operate is used, such as an alkaline solution, an aqueous developer, an organic solvent, etc. As a developing method, a known method such as spraying, rocking immersion, brushing, scraping, etc. is appropriately adopted.

[0225] Examples of alkaline aqueous solutions used as the developer include aqueous solutions of alkali metal hydroxides such as lithium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, and potassium hydroxide; carbonates or bicarbonates such as sodium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate; alkali metal phosphates such as sodium phosphate and potassium phosphate; and alkali metal pyrophosphates such as sodium pyrophosphate and potassium pyrophosphate; and aqueous solutions of organic bases that do not contain metal ions, such as tetraalkylammonium hydroxide. An aqueous solution of tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) is preferred because it does not contain metal ions and does not affect the semiconductor chip.

[0226] These alkaline aqueous solutions may contain a surfactant, an antifoaming agent, etc., to improve the development effect. The pH of the alkaline aqueous solution is, for example, preferably in the range of 8 to 12, more preferably in the range of 9 to 11. The base concentration of the alkaline aqueous solution is preferably 0.1% by mass to 10% by mass.

[0228] The concentration of such an organic solvent is preferably 2% by mass to 90% by mass based on the total amount of the developer. The temperature of such an organic solvent can be adjusted according to the developability. Furthermore, such an organic solvent can be used alone or in combination of two or more kinds. Examples of organic solvent-based developers used alone include 1,1,1-trichloroethane, N-methylpyrrolidone, N,N-dimethylformamide, cyclohexanone, methyl isobutyl ketone, and γ-butyrolactone.

[0229] In forming a pattern, two or more kinds of developing methods may be used in combination as necessary. The developing methods include a dip method, a bath method, a spray method, a high-pressure spray method, brushing, slapping, etc., and the high-pressure spray method is suitable for improving resolution. When adopting a spray method, the spray pressure is preferably 0.05 MPa to 0.3 MPa.

[0230] <Thermal curing (post-bake) process> After the above step (III) is completed, a thermal curing (post-baking) step is performed as necessary. Although the curing of the photosensitive resin composition layer may proceed in the above steps (I) to (III), the curing of the photosensitive resin composition can be further promoted by the thermal curing step to obtain an insulating layer having excellent mechanical strength. Examples of the post-baking step include a heating step using a clean oven. The atmosphere during thermal curing may be in air or in an inert gas atmosphere such as nitrogen. The heating conditions may be appropriately selected depending on the type and content of the resin component in the photosensitive resin composition, and are preferably selected in the range of 150°C to 250°C for 20 minutes to 180 minutes, and more preferably in the range of 160°C to 230°C for 30 minutes to 120 minutes.

[0231] <Other processes> The method for producing a semiconductor package substrate may further include a drilling step and a desmearing step after forming an insulating layer as a cured photosensitive resin composition layer. These steps may be carried out according to various methods used in the production of semiconductor package substrates and known to those skilled in the art.

[0232] After forming the insulating layer, if desired, a hole-making process is performed on the insulating layer formed on the circuit board to form via holes and through holes. The hole-making process can be performed by a known method such as a drill, a laser, or plasma, or by a combination of these methods as necessary, but a hole-making process using a laser such as a carbon dioxide laser or a YAG laser is preferred.

[0233] The desmear process is a process of performing a desmear treatment. Generally, resin residue (smear) adheres to the inside of the opening formed in the hole drilling process. Since such smear can cause poor electrical connection, a process of removing the smear (desmear treatment) is performed in this process.

[0234] The desmear treatment may be performed by a dry desmear treatment, a wet desmear treatment, or a combination thereof.

[0235] An example of the dry desmear treatment is a desmear treatment using plasma. The desmear treatment using plasma can be performed using a commercially available plasma desmear treatment device. Among the commercially available plasma desmear treatment devices, examples suitable for manufacturing semiconductor package substrates include a microwave plasma device manufactured by Nissin Co., Ltd. and an atmospheric pressure plasma etching device manufactured by Sekisui Chemical Co., Ltd.

[0236] The wet desmear treatment may be, for example, a desmear treatment using an oxidizing agent solution. When the desmear treatment is performed using an oxidizing agent solution, it is preferable to perform a swelling treatment using a swelling liquid, an oxidation treatment using an oxidizing agent solution, and a neutralization treatment using a neutralizing liquid in this order. Examples of the swelling liquid include "Swelling Dip Securigance P" and "Swelling Dip Securigance SBU" manufactured by Atotech Japan. The swelling treatment is preferably performed by immersing a substrate on which via holes or the like are formed in a swelling liquid heated to 60°C to 80°C for 5 to 10 minutes. The oxidizing agent solution is preferably an alkaline permanganate solution, and examples of the solution include a solution in which potassium permanganate or sodium permanganate is dissolved in an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide. The oxidation treatment using an oxidizing agent solution is preferably performed by immersing a substrate after the swelling treatment in an oxidizing agent solution heated to 60°C to 80°C for 10 to 30 minutes. Commercially available alkaline permanganate aqueous solutions include, for example, "Concentrate Compact CP" and "Dosing Solution Securiganth P" manufactured by Atotech Japan. The neutralization treatment using a neutralizing solution is preferably carried out by immersing the substrate after the oxidation treatment in the neutralizing solution at 30°C to 50°C for 3 to 10 minutes. The neutralizing solution is preferably an acidic aqueous solution, and a commercially available product thereof is, for example, "Reduction Solution Securiganth P" manufactured by Atotech Japan.

[0237] When the dry desmear treatment and the wet desmear treatment are performed in combination, the dry desmear treatment may be performed first, or the wet desmear treatment may be performed first.

[0238] In the case where the insulating layer is formed as any of a redistribution layer, an interlayer insulating layer, and a solder resist, a hole drilling step and a desmearing step may be performed after the thermal curing step. In addition, in the manufacturing method of the semiconductor package substrate, a plating step may be further performed.

[0239] The plating process is a process of forming a conductor layer on an insulating layer. The conductor layer may be formed by sputtering after the insulating layer is formed, or may be formed by a combination of electroless plating and electrolytic plating, or a plating resist having a reverse pattern to the conductor layer may be formed by electroless plating alone. Subsequent pattern formation methods include, for example, subtractive methods and semi-additive methods known to those skilled in the art.

[0240] The semiconductor package substrate according to the second embodiment of the present invention can be manufactured using the above-mentioned photosensitive resin composition, and the cured product of the photosensitive resin composition is used as a rewiring formation layer. Specifically, the manufacturing method of the semiconductor package substrate includes the following steps: (A) a step of laminating a temporary fixing film on a substrate; (B) a step of temporarily fixing a semiconductor chip on a temporary fixing film; (C) forming an encapsulation layer on the semiconductor chip; (D) peeling the substrate and the temporary fixing film from the semiconductor chip; (E) a step of forming a rewiring formation layer as an insulating layer on the surface of the semiconductor chip from which the base material and the temporary fixing film have been peeled off; (F) forming a rewiring layer as a conductor layer on the rewiring formation layer; and (G) forming a solder resist layer on the rewiring layer; The method for manufacturing the semiconductor chip package further comprises: (H) dicing the plurality of semiconductor chip packages into individual semiconductor chip packages; may also include

[0241] <Process (A)> Step (A) is a step of laminating a temporary fixing film on a substrate. The lamination conditions for the substrate and the temporary fixing film are not particularly limited, but for example, the pressure bonding temperature (lamination temperature) is preferably 70° C. to 140° C., and the pressure bonding pressure is preferably 1 kgf / cm. 2 ~11kgf / cm 2 The pressure bonding time is preferably 5 to 300 seconds, and lamination is preferably performed under reduced pressure with an air pressure of 20 mmHg or less. The lamination process may be a batch process or a continuous process using rolls. The vacuum lamination method can be performed using a commercially available vacuum laminator. Examples of commercially available vacuum laminators include a vacuum applicator manufactured by Nikko Materials Co., Ltd., a vacuum pressure laminator manufactured by Meiki Seisakusho Co., Ltd., a roll-type dry coater manufactured by Hitachi Industries Co., Ltd., and a vacuum laminator manufactured by Hitachi AIC Co., Ltd.

[0242] Examples of the substrate include silicon wafers; glass wafers; glass substrates; metal substrates such as copper, titanium, stainless steel, and cold-rolled steel (SPCC); substrates such as FR-4 substrates in which glass fibers are impregnated with epoxy resin or the like and then heat-cured; and substrates made of bismaleimide triazine resins such as BT resin.

[0243] The temporary fixing film may be made of any material that can be peeled off from the semiconductor chip and can temporarily fix the semiconductor chip. Commercially available products include "Riva Alpha" manufactured by Nitto Denko Corporation.

[0244] <Process (B)> Step (B) is a step of temporarily fixing the semiconductor chip on the temporary fixing film. The temporary fixing of the semiconductor chip can be performed using, for example, a device such as a flip chip bonder or a die bonder. The layout and number of the semiconductor chips can be appropriately set depending on the shape and size of the temporary fixing film, the number of semiconductor packages to be produced, etc. For example, the semiconductor chips may be temporarily fixed by arranging them in a matrix shape of multiple rows and multiple columns.

[0245] <Process (C)> Step (C) is a step of forming an encapsulating layer on the semiconductor chip. The encapsulating layer can be made of any material having insulating properties, and the above-mentioned photosensitive resin composition can be used. The encapsulating layer is usually formed by a method including a step of forming an encapsulating resin composition layer on the semiconductor chip and a step of thermally curing the resin composition layer to form the encapsulating layer.

[0246] The formation of the encapsulating resin composition layer is preferably carried out by a compression molding method, in which a semiconductor chip and an encapsulating resin composition are usually placed in a mold, and pressure and, if necessary, heat are applied to the encapsulating resin composition in the mold to form an encapsulating resin composition layer that covers the semiconductor chip.

[0247] A specific operation of the compression molding method can be, for example, as follows. An upper mold and a lower mold are prepared as molds for compression molding. An encapsulating resin composition is applied to the semiconductor chip temporarily fixed on the temporary fixing film as described above. The semiconductor chip to which the encapsulating resin composition is applied is attached to the lower mold together with the substrate and the temporary fixing film. Then, the upper mold and the lower mold are clamped, and heat and pressure are applied to the encapsulating resin composition to perform compression molding.

[0248] A specific operation of the compression molding method may be, for example, as follows. An upper mold and a lower mold are prepared as molds for compression molding. An encapsulating resin composition is placed on the lower mold. A semiconductor chip is attached to the upper mold together with a substrate and a temporary fixing film. Then, the upper mold and the lower mold are clamped together so that the encapsulating resin composition placed on the lower mold contacts the semiconductor chip attached to the upper mold, and heat and pressure are applied to perform compression molding.

[0249] The molding conditions vary depending on the composition of the encapsulating resin composition, and appropriate conditions can be adopted so that good encapsulation is achieved. For example, the temperature of the mold during molding is preferably a temperature at which the encapsulating resin composition can exhibit excellent compression moldability, and is preferably 80°C or higher, more preferably 100°C or higher, particularly preferably 120°C or higher, and preferably 200°C or lower, more preferably 170°C or lower, and particularly preferably 150°C or lower. The pressure applied during molding is preferably 1 MPa or higher, more preferably 3 MPa or higher, particularly preferably 5 MPa or higher, and preferably 50 MPa or lower, more preferably 30 MPa or lower, and particularly preferably 20 MPa or lower. The cure time is preferably 1 minute or more, more preferably 2 minutes or more, particularly preferably 5 minutes or more, and preferably 60 minutes or lower, more preferably 30 minutes or lower, and particularly preferably 20 minutes or lower. Usually, the mold is removed after the encapsulating resin composition layer is formed. The mold may be removed before or after the encapsulating resin composition layer is thermally cured.

[0250] The compression molding method may be performed by discharging the encapsulating resin composition filled in a cartridge into a lower mold.

[0251] <Process (D)> Step (D) is a step of peeling off the substrate and the temporary fixing film from the semiconductor chip. It is desirable to adopt an appropriate peeling method according to the material of the temporary fixing film. For example, the peeling method may be a method of heating, foaming or expanding the temporary fixing film to peel it off. In addition, for example, the peeling method may be a method of irradiating the temporary fixing film with ultraviolet light through the substrate to reduce the adhesive strength of the temporary fixing film to peel it off.

[0252] In the method of peeling off the temporary fixing film by heating, foaming or expanding it, the heating conditions are usually 100° C. to 250° C. for 1 second to 90 seconds or 5 minutes to 15 minutes. In the method of peeling off the temporary fixing film by reducing the adhesive strength of the temporary fixing film by irradiating it with ultraviolet light, the irradiation amount of ultraviolet light is usually 10 mJ / cm 2 ~1000mJ / cm 2 It is.

[0253] <Process (E)> Step (E) is a step of forming a rewiring formation layer as an insulating layer on the surface of the semiconductor chip from which the base material and the temporary fixing film have been peeled off. The rewiring formation layer uses the photosensitive resin composition of the present invention. The method of forming the rewiring formation layer is the same as the method of forming the photosensitive resin composition layer in step (I) in the first embodiment.

[0254] When forming the rewiring formation layer, via holes may be formed in the rewiring formation layer to provide interlayer connection between the semiconductor chip and the rewiring layer.

[0255] The via hole can be formed by carrying out an exposure step of irradiating the surface of the photosensitive resin composition layer for forming the rewiring formation layer with active light through a mask pattern, and a development step of developing and removing the non-exposed portion not irradiated with active light. The amount and time of irradiation of active light can be appropriately set according to the photosensitive resin composition layer. Examples of the exposure method include a contact exposure method in which a mask pattern is closely attached to the photosensitive resin composition layer and exposed, and a non-contact exposure method in which a mask pattern is not closely attached to the photosensitive resin composition layer and exposed using parallel light. The active light, the alkaline aqueous solution, and the exposure and development method are as described above.

[0256] The shape of the via hole is not particularly limited, but is generally circular (approximately circular). The top diameter of the via hole is preferably 50 μm or less, more preferably 30 μm or less, and even more preferably 20 μm or less, and is preferably 0.1 μm or more, preferably 0.5 μm or more, and more preferably 1.0 μm or more. Here, the top diameter of the via hole refers to the diameter of the opening of the via hole on the surface of the rewiring formation layer.

[0257] <Process (F)> Step (F) is a step of forming a redistribution layer as a conductor layer on the redistribution formation layer. The method of forming the redistribution layer on the redistribution formation layer may be the same as the method of forming a conductor layer on an insulating layer in the first embodiment. Steps (E) and (F) may be repeated to alternately stack (build up) the redistribution layers and the redistribution formation layers.

[0258] <Process (G)> Step (G) is a step of forming a solder resist layer on the rewiring layer. The material of the solder resist layer can be any material having insulating properties. Among them, photosensitive resins and thermosetting resins are preferred from the viewpoint of ease of manufacturing the semiconductor chip package. The photosensitive resin composition of the present invention may also be used.

[0259] In step (G), bumping processing may be performed to form bumps, if necessary. The bumping processing can be performed by a method such as solder balls or solder plating. In addition, the formation of via holes in the bumping processing can be performed in the same manner as in step (E).

[0260] The method for manufacturing a semiconductor chip package may include a step (H) in addition to the steps (A) to (G). The step (H) is a step of dicing a plurality of semiconductor chip packages into individual semiconductor chip packages to separate them. The method for dicing the semiconductor chip packages into individual semiconductor chip packages is not particularly limited.

[0261] [Semiconductor Devices] Examples of semiconductor devices in which the above-mentioned semiconductor chip package is mounted include various semiconductor devices used in electrical products (e.g., computers, mobile phones, smartphones, tablet devices, wearable devices, digital cameras, medical equipment, televisions, etc.) and vehicles (e.g., motorcycles, automobiles, trains, ships, aircraft, etc.).

[0287] <Evaluation of limiting resolution and via hole shape> A copper plating layer with a thickness of 10 μm was laminated on the surface of a silicon wafer, and the substrate was subjected to a phobic treatment with a 1% hydrochloric acid aqueous solution for 10 seconds. Each photosensitive resin composition was applied to the substrate with a spin coater at a rotation speed appropriate for a film thickness of 15 μm, and the coating was heated on a hot plate at 120° C. for 5 minutes to form a photosensitive resin composition layer. This is called a laminate.

[0288] The laminate produced by the above method was irradiated with ultraviolet light (wavelength 365 nm, intensity 40 mW / cm 2 The exposure was 50 mJ / cm 2 to 1000mJ / cm 2 The optimum value was set in the range of 10 μm, 15 μm, 20 μm, 25 μm, and 30 μm. A quartz glass mask was used for the exposure pattern, which allows drawing of circular holes (via holes) with openings of 10 μm, 15 μm, 20 μm, 25 μm, and 30 μm.

[0289] Next, the entire surface of the photosensitive resin composition layer on the laminate was spray-developed with cyclopentanone as a developer at a spray pressure of 0.2 MPa for an optimal time between 30 and 200 seconds, followed by spray rinsing with 2-methoxy-1-methylethyl acetate (PGMEA) at a spray pressure of 0.2 MPa for 30 seconds.Furthermore, the photosensitive resin composition layer was cured by performing a heat treatment at 200°C for 120 minutes.

[0290] The diameters of the bottoms of via holes with openings of 10 μm, 15 μm, 20 μm, 25 μm, and 30 μm in the exposure pattern were observed and measured by SEM (magnification 1000 times). The smallest size that can be opened is defined as the limiting resolution. The limiting resolution was also evaluated according to the following criteria. ○: Limiting resolution is less than 20 μm △: Limiting resolution is 20μm or more and less than 30μm ×: Limiting resolution is 30 μm or more

[0292] <Measurement of dielectric properties (dielectric constant, dielectric tangent)> The dielectric properties were measured by coating the photosensitive resin composition on a peel-treated PET film with a blade to a film thickness of 140 μm. The solution on the PET was heated at 80° C. for 20 minutes using a heater to form a photosensitive film having a photosensitive resin composition layer. The photosensitive resin composition layer was peeled off from the PET film, and the photosensitive resin composition layer was attached to a metal frame using heat-resistant tape, and cured for an additional 2 hours at 250° C. to prepare a film for measuring physical properties.

[0293] A test piece measuring 2 mm in width and 80 mm in length was cut out from the film for measuring physical properties. The dielectric constant and dielectric loss tangent of the cut out test piece were measured at a measurement frequency of 5.8 GHz and a measurement temperature of 23°C by a cavity resonance perturbation method using a measuring device "HP8362B" manufactured by Agilent Technologies.

[0294] <Warpage evaluation (warpage test)> The photosensitive resin compositions produced in the Examples and Comparative Examples were applied onto a 12-inch silicon wafer using a spin coater at a rotation speed appropriate for a film thickness of 30 μm, and then heated on a hot plate at 120° C. for 5 minutes to form a photosensitive resin composition layer. Thereafter, the wafer was irradiated with ultraviolet light (wavelength 365 nm, intensity 40 mW / cm 2 ). 2 The exposure was 1000 mJ / cm 2The exposure was performed on the front surface of the photosensitive resin layer through quartz glass. The photosensitive resin composition layer was further cured by heating at 200°C for 120 minutes. This resulted in a sample substrate including a silicon wafer and a cured layer of the photosensitive resin composition. The amount of warping of the sample substrate at 25°C was measured using a shadow moire measuring device ("ThermoireAXP" manufactured by Akorometrix). The measurement was performed in accordance with JEITA EDX-7311-24, a standard of the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association. Specifically, a virtual plane calculated by the least squares method of all data on the substrate surface in the measurement area was used as a reference plane, and the difference between the minimum value and the maximum value in the vertical direction from the reference plane was calculated as the amount of warping. The amount of warping was also evaluated according to the following criteria. ○: Warpage is less than 130 μm △: Warpage is 130μm or more and less than 150μm ×: Warpage is 150 μm or more
