These solid-state imaging devices have infrared sensitivity in their light receiving areas. It uses a silicon photodiode. For this reason, in solid-state imaging devices, near-infrared cut filters are used to correct visibility. The near-infrared cut filter may be, for example, a filter that uses a composition containing an infrared absorbing agent. It is manufactured in accordance with the above.

On the other hand, Patent Document 2 describes a method for blocking neon orange light in plasma displays. It is described that a specific squarylium compound is used in the above, and Patent Document 3 describes the photodegradation It is described that squarylium compounds are used in combination with specific solvents to suppress the Moreover, on pages 28 to 32 of Patent Document 4, there is a description of an increase in a photoconductive layer in an electrophotographic recording element.

According to the investigations conducted by the present inventors, the squarylium compound described in Patent Document 1 is It was found that the side absorption was large and the transmittance in the visible region was insufficient.

[0006] The squarylium compound described in Patent Document 2 has an absorption maximum at wavelengths of 550 to 61 It was found that the absorption of the fluorine-containing ... The squarylium-based compound described in Patent Document 4 is a squarylium-based compound. Although it is commercially available as the compound with the longest wavelength absorption, it has a stronger electron donating site. Since the present invention does not have any of the above properties, it is possible to obtain a squarylium-based compound having a longer absorption wavelength.

[0007] In addition, nickel dithiol is a near-infrared dye that has an absorption maximum in the wavelength range of 680 to 900 nm. However, this alone has a low molar absorption coefficient in the near infrared region, so It is necessary to increase the concentration to block ultraviolet radiation, but increasing the concentration reduces the visible range, especially wavelength 4. Since side absorption around 00 nm inhibits the transmittance in the visible region, On the other hand, it has not been possible to sufficiently achieve both the function of ensuring the shielding ability against near-infrared rays.

[0008] Therefore, the present invention is a method for preventing near-infrared rays having a wavelength of 680 to 1000 nm from being transmitted in the visible region. To provide a dye composition capable of forming a near-infrared cut filter having both transparency and transparency. The purpose is to: [Means for solving the problem]

The dye composition of the present invention comprises the squarylium compound (a) and a dithiolate complex. By containing a compound and / or a cyanine compound, the molar Due to its large absorption coefficient, side absorption in the visible region is suppressed, and near-infrared absorption in the wavelength range of 680 to 1000 nm is suppressed. A near-infrared cut filter is formed that is capable of blocking ultraviolet rays and transmitting visible light. It becomes possible.

Each of the obtained dye compositions was coated on a polyethylene terephthalate film and incubated at 90° C. After drying for 2 minutes, a film having a thickness of 10 μm was formed, and a near-infrared cut filter was prepared.

[0181] [Table 2]

[0182] Next, the near-infrared cut filter was measured using a spectrophotometer (Hitachi High-Tech Science Corporation, The transmittance spectrum was measured in the wavelength range of 400 to 1200 nm using a 300-mm square lens (U4100). The measured spectra of Example 1, Example 2 and Comparative Example 1 are shown in FIG. Next, from the obtained transmittance spectra for Example 1, Example 2, and Comparative Example 1, the following was obtained: Transmittance results for T(680-1000nm) and T(450-600nm) defined below is shown in Table 3.

[0183] T(680-1000nm): Average transmittance in 1nm increments from 680 to 1000nm value. T(450-600nm): The average transmittance in 1 nm increments for wavelengths from 450 to 600 nm.

[0184] [Table 3]

[0185] As is clear from Table 3, the near-infrared shielding ability is as follows based on the T(680-1000nm) value: Examples 1 and 2 are superior to Comparative Example 1, and the values ​​of T(450-600 nm) are In addition, the transmittance in the visible region is also superior in Examples 1 and 2. The near-infrared cut filter in Example 2 has the ability to block near-infrared rays with wavelengths of 680 to 1000 nm and to block visible light. It can be seen that the transmittance in the region is compatible.

[0186] The near infrared cut filters of Examples 1 and 2 each contain a squarylium compound (a) and The present invention relates to a method for producing a cyanine compound, a dithiolate complex compound, or a cyanine compound. The cyanine compound has an absorption maximum in the wavelength range of 900 to 1200 nm. Squarylium-based compounds (a) are aromatic units that exhibit strong absorption in the near infrared region. By having a ring group and a specific group derived from an indolenyl group, It has an absorption maximum in the near infrared region, that is, it has high and wide absorbance in the near infrared region. Since the dye has an absorption band, the type of dye required to block the entire near infrared region is It is believed that the number of classes could be set to three or four. Furthermore, the molar absorption coefficient in the near infrared region is large. This allows the amount of additive to be reduced, and prevents the inclusion of insoluble matter or impurities that affect the light transmittance in the visible range. It is believed that the light transmittance in the visible region was increased because the suppression of the oxidative stress was achieved.

[0187] As shown in FIG. 1, in Examples 1 and 2, the absorption maximum is in the wavelength range of 900 to 1200 nm. By using a dithiolate complex compound or a cyanine compound, the transmittance in the visible region is high, It is now possible to block near-infrared rays with wavelengths of around 1000 nm. On the other hand, when a naphthalocyanine compound is used as in Comparative Example 1, the transmittance in the visible region is The results were also poor in blocking near-infrared rays with wavelengths of about 1000 nm.
