[0014] 《Method for Manufacturing Multilayer Wiring Substrate》 The manufacturing method of the present disclosure (hereinafter, also referred to as "the present manufacturing method") includes, as a pretreatment for the step of embedding metal inside a via in a wiring formation step of forming multilayer wiring on a substrate to obtain a multilayer wiring substrate, a step of performing a process of forming an organic film on the inner surface of the via provided in the insulating layer on the wiring. The organic film on the inner surface of the via is formed using a surface modification composition that is an organic material.

Specifically, the present manufacturing method includes the following film formation step and plating step. (Film Formation Step) A step of forming an organic film on the wiring and the inner wall surface inside the via formed in the insulating layer on the wiring. (Plating Step) A step of forming a plating layer inside the via after forming the organic film. Hereinafter, the details of the present manufacturing method will be described with reference to the drawings as appropriate.

[0015] Figs. 1(a) to 1(d) are schematic diagrams showing a series of steps when forming an organic film inside a via provided in the wiring substrate 10. Note that Figs. 1(a) to 1(d) show a partially enlarged view of the via 11 and its peripheral portion. Fig. 1(a) represents a state before an organic film is formed on the wiring 11 inside the via and the inner wall surface 12 using a surface modification composition.

[0016] As shown in Fig. 1(a), the wiring board 10 includes wiring 13. The wiring 13 is formed of a metal material. In this embodiment, the wiring 13 is formed of a conductive material containing one or more selected from the group consisting of cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), tungsten (W), and ruthenium (Ru). Note that the metal contained in the wiring 13 may be a single metal, an alloy, a conductive nitride, a metal oxide, or the like. An insulating layer 14 is provided adjacent to the wiring 13 above the wiring 13.

[0017] The insulating layer 14 is formed of a silicon-containing material. The insulating layer 14 preferably has, on its surface, a group (hereinafter also referred to as a "silicon-containing group") to which at least one selected from the group consisting of a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group, an oxo group, and -N(R 1 ) 2 (wherein each R 1 is independently a hydrogen atom or a monovalent organic group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms. The same applies hereinafter) is bonded. Specific examples of the silicon-containing group include, for example, Si-H, Si-OH (silanol group), Si=O, Si-N(R 1 ) 2 , etc. Examples of the material constituting the insulating layer 14 include semiconductor materials such as silicon oxide, silicon nitride, and silicon oxynitride (SiO 2 , SiOC, Si 3 N 4 , SiNx, SiON, etc.).

[0018] A via 11 is provided in the insulating layer 14. The via 11 is formed in the insulating layer 14 so as to penetrate the insulating layer 14 in the thickness direction. As a result, at the bottom 15 inside the via, the wiring 13 is exposed. Note that the method of forming the via 11 in the insulating layer 14 is not particularly limited, and a conventionally known method such as dry etching can be appropriately employed.

[0019] In the wiring board 10 where plating embedding is performed by this manufacturing method, it is preferable that a treatment for surface modification of the wiring board 10 (more specifically, surface modification of the insulating layer 14) is performed (substrate modification step). The treatment for substrate modification may be a dry type or a wet type. In the case of the dry type, the substrate modification treatment performed in this manufacturing method is N 2 / H 2 gas or O 2 ashing treatment with gas is preferable. In the case of the wet type, from the viewpoint of improving the coatability and adhesion of the surface modification composition, the substrate modification treatment to be applied is preferably a treatment in which a treatment liquid containing tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH), hydrogen fluoride (HF), ammonia (NH 3 ), tetramethylammonium fluoride (TMAF), or citric acid is brought into contact.

[0020] <Film formation step> In this manufacturing method, in the film formation step, an organic film 17 is formed on the exposed wiring 13 and the inner wall surface 12 at the bottom 15 of the via 11 (see FIGS. 1(b) and (c)). The organic film 17 is a film that covers the bottom 15 and the inner wall surface 12 of the via 11, and is directly formed on the wiring 13 at the bottom 15 and the inner wall surface 12 using a polymer composition containing a polymer and a solvent. Specifically, it is preferable to form the organic film 17 on the bottom 15 and the inner wall surface 12 of the via 11 by a method including the following steps 1 and 2. (Step 1) A step of applying a polymer composition to the surface of the wiring board 10. (Step 2) A step of removing the solvent from the polymer composition applied to the substrate surface.

[0021] ·Step 1: Coating step In this step, the polymer composition is applied to at least the inner surface of the via 11 in the wiring board 10. Examples of the method of applying the polymer composition include a spray method, a roll coating method, a spin coating method, a slit die coating method, a bar coating method, an inkjet method, and the like. Among these, it is preferable to apply the composition by a spin coating method, a slit die coating method, or a bar coating method.

[0022] On the surface of the substrate to which the polymer composition is applied, for example, H 2 , N 2 and H 2 mixed gas with, O 2 gas, etc., plasma treatment using gas, etc., or pretreatment such as wet modification treatment for hydrophilizing the substrate surface may be performed. By performing plasma treatment on the surface of the substrate to which the polymer composition is applied, it is possible to sufficiently generate at least any one of Si-OH, Si-H, and Si-N on the coating surface of the polymer composition, which is preferable in that it can improve the coatability and sufficiently promote the surface modification by the polymer composition.

[0023] · Step 2: Solvent removal step In this step, preferably, heat treatment is performed to remove the solvent from the polymer composition applied to the substrate surface. Thereby, the organic film 17 is formed on the wiring 13 and the inner wall surface 12 inside the via. The heat treatment can be performed using a heating device such as an oven or a hot plate. When performing the heat treatment, the heating temperature is preferably 80°C or higher, more preferably 100°C or higher, and still more preferably 120°C or higher. Also, the heating temperature is preferably 300°C or lower, more preferably 280°C or lower. The heating time is preferably 0.5 to 30 minutes, more preferably 1 to 20 minutes. The thickness of the formed organic film 17 is, for example, 1 to 10 nm, preferably 1 to 5 nm, and more preferably 1 to 3 nm.

[0024] In addition, in order to remove unadsorbed polymers, etc., a rinsing treatment such as washing with an organic solvent or running water washing may be performed on the surface of the substrate on which the organic film is formed. Examples of the organic solvent used as the rinsing liquid include propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, isopropanol, acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl-n-propyl ketone, and a mixed solvent of two or more of these.

[0025] The organic film 17 has a functional group (hereinafter also referred to as "functional group FM") that can form a bond with the metal contained in the plating layer 18 (see FIG. 1(d)) formed inside the via by the plating process described later. The functional group FM is preferably a functional group capable of forming a coordination bond with a metal element, and examples thereof include a carboxy group, a sulfide group, a dithiocarbonyl group (-C(=S)-S-), a thiourethane group (-NR 20 -C(=O)-S-), and a thioamide group (-C(=S)-NR 20 -), and at least one selected from the group consisting of these is preferable. Note that the functional group FM corresponds to the "second functional group". R 20 represents a hydrogen atom or a monovalent group. Specific examples of the case where R 20 is a monovalent group include monovalent hydrocarbon groups having 1 to 10 carbon atoms.

[0026] One embodiment of the organic film 17 is a multilayer structure. Specifically, as shown in FIGS. 1(b) and 1(c), the organic film 17 is a laminated film including a first layer 17a formed on the inner wall surface 12 and a second layer 17b formed on the first layer 17a. The first layer 17a is formed on the wiring 13 inside the via and the inner wall surface 12 by using a composition (hereinafter also referred to as "first composition") including a polymer (I) having a functional group (hereinafter also referred to as "functional group F1") that can interact with the group on the surface layer of the insulating layer 14 and a solvent (see FIG. 1(b)). Further, the second layer 17b is formed on the first layer 17a by using a composition (hereinafter also referred to as "second composition") including a polymer (II) and a solvent (see FIG. 1(c)).

[0027] In addition, in order to form the laminated film including the first layer 17a and the second layer 17b, first, the first layer 17a is formed by steps 1 and 2 using the first composition, and then the steps 1 and 2 are performed again using the second composition to form the second layer 17b.

[0028] When the organic film 17 has a multilayer structure, examples of the method for obtaining the organic film 17 having the functional group FM include using, as the polymer (I), a polymer having the functional group FM or a functional group that generates the functional group FM by heat (hereinafter also referred to as "functional group FP"); using, as the polymer (II), a polymer having the functional group FM or the functional group FP; a method of generating the functional group FM by the reaction between the functional group of the polymer (I) and the functional group of the polymer (II) during film formation; and the like.

[0029] Another aspect of the organic film 17 is a single-layer structure. When the organic film 17 is a single-layer film, the organic film 17 is formed using a polymer (I) that is a functional group F1 capable of interacting with the group (silicon-containing group) on the surface layer of the insulating layer 14. In this case, the organic film 17 preferably contains a polymer (hereinafter also referred to as "polymer (III)") having the functional group F1 and a functional group FM capable of forming a bond with the metal contained in the plating layer 18 or a functional group FP that generates the functional group FM by heat, and a solvent (hereinafter also referred to as "third composition"), and is formed on the bottom 15 and the inner wall surface 12 by performing the above steps 1 and 2.

[0030] <Plating process> In this manufacturing method, after forming the organic film 17 on the bottom 15 and the inner wall surface 12 of the via 11, subsequently, a plating treatment is performed while leaving the organic film 17 to form a plating layer 18 as a metal layer inside the via (see Fig. 1(d)). The plating method is not particularly limited, and known electroplating, electroless plating, fusion plating, vacuum plating, vapor plating, etc. can be adopted. When applied to a semiconductor manufacturing process, among these, electroplating or electroless plating is preferably used, and electroless plating is particularly preferred. Specifically, a method of forming an electroless plating layer by using the exposed wiring 13 on the bottom 15 as a catalyst and bottom-up from the bottom 15 can be mentioned. Note that after the plating treatment, a planarization treatment of the substrate surface or the like may be performed as necessary.

[0031] The metal contained in the plating layer 18 is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include the same metals as those exemplified as the constituent materials of the wiring 13. Among these, the plating layer 18 preferably contains one or more selected from the group consisting of Co, Ni, W, and Ru.

[0032] The plating layer 18 formed in this way has few voids and seams, and thus a highly reliable multilayer wiring board can be obtained.

[0033] Next, the modifying compositions (the first composition, the second composition, and the third composition) used in this manufacturing method will be described. As each component constituting the composition, unless otherwise specified, one kind may be used alone or two or more kinds may be used in combination.

[0034] <The First Composition> The first composition is a polymer composition used to form the first layer 17a on the bottom 15 and the inner wall surface 12 of the via 11. This first composition contains a polymer (I) having a functional group (functional group F1) capable of interacting with the groups on the surface layer of the insulating layer 14 and a solvent. Note that the functional group F1 corresponds to the "first functional group". In this specification, "interaction" means forming a chemical bond between molecules or a physical force acting between molecules, and is also referred to as "adsorption". This interaction includes covalent bonds, ionic bonds, and metal bonds, as well as coordination bonds, hydrogen bonds, and van der Waals forces.

[0035] 〔Polymer (I)〕 ·Functional Group F1 The functional group F1 possessed by the polymer (I) is preferably a functional group capable of interacting with a group (silicon-containing group) to which at least one selected from the group consisting of a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group, an oxo group, and -N(R 1 ) 2 is bonded to a silicon atom. More specifically, the functional group F1 is a silanol group, an alkoxysilyl group, a halogenated silyl group, -N(Si(R 5 ) 3 ) 2, it is preferably at least one selected from the group consisting of an amino group, a hydroxyl group, a conjugated nitrogen-containing heterocyclic group, an acid anhydride group, a carboxy group, and a protected carboxy group. Here, R 5 is each independently a hydrogen atom or a monovalent organic group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms.

[0036] When the functional group F1 is the group “-N(Si(R 5 )) 3 ) 2 ”, examples of the monovalent organic group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms for R 5 include monovalent hydrocarbon groups having 1 to 10 carbon atoms. The conjugated nitrogen-containing heterocyclic group is a group having a conjugated nitrogen-containing heterocycle, and specifically includes groups having ring structures such as a carbazole ring, a benzocarbazole ring, a dibenzocarbazole ring, an indole ring, a pyrrole ring, an imidazole ring, a pyridine ring, a triazole ring, and a triazine ring. Note that the conjugated nitrogen-containing heterocyclic group may have a substituent on the heterocyclic moiety. Examples of the substituent include an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, a halogen atom, and the like.

[0037] The functional group F1 is more preferably at least one selected from the group consisting of a silanol group, an alkoxysilyl group, and a conjugated nitrogen-containing heterocyclic group in terms of having high affinity with the silicon-containing group on the surface layer of the insulating layer 14 and being able to improve the storage stability of the first composition, and is more preferably further including an alkoxysilyl group in terms of showing high adsorptivity to silicon oxide and being able to further enhance the effect of improving the adhesion between the first layer 17a and the insulating layer 14. Also, in terms of showing crosslinkability while interacting with the silicon-containing group on the surface layer of the insulating layer 14, the functional group F1 is preferably an acid anhydride group, a carboxy group, or a protected carboxy group, and more preferably an acid anhydride group.

[0038] ·Crosslinkable group The polymer (I) preferably has a crosslinkable group. Here, in the present specification, the "crosslinkable group" refers to a group that reacts with the same or different functional groups by heat application or the like to form a covalent bond. However, the crosslinkable group possessed by the polymer (I) is a group different from the functional group F1 possessed by the polymer (I). When the polymer (I) has a crosslinkable group, the polymer (I) preferably has, as the functional group F1, a group that interacts with the group on the surface layer of the insulating layer 14 and does not exhibit crosslinkability. The fact that the polymer (I) has a crosslinkable group is preferable in that an organic film having high heat resistance and dielectric breakdown resistance can be formed. Further, a crosslinked structure can be formed between the first layer 17a and the second layer 17b by using the crosslinkable group possessed by the polymer (I), and the effect of improving the adhesion of the organic film 17 can be enhanced. Examples of the crosslinkable group include a group having a carbon-carbon unsaturated bond, a group having a condensed ring structure of an aromatic ring and a cyclobutane ring, a cyclic ether group, a cyclic carbonate group, an acid anhydride group, a carboxy group, a protected carboxy group, and the like.

[0039] Note that the crosslinkable group is a group different from the functional group F1. Therefore, when the polymer (I) has an acid anhydride group, a carboxy group, or a protected carboxy group as the functional group F1, the crosslinkable group possessed by the polymer (I) is a group different from the acid anhydride group, the carboxy group, and the protected carboxy group (for example, a group having a carbon-carbon unsaturated bond, a group having a condensed ring structure of an aromatic ring and a cyclobutane ring, a cyclic ether group, a cyclic carbonate group). Further, when the polymer (I) has a group different from the acid anhydride group, the carboxy group, and the protected carboxy group as the functional group F1, the crosslinkable group possessed by the polymer (I) may be an acid anhydride group, a carboxy group, or a protected carboxy group.

[0040] Specific examples of the crosslinkable group include, as a group having a carbon-carbon unsaturated bond, for example, a vinyl group, a vinyloxy group, an allyl group, a (meth)acryloyl group, a vinylphenyl group, etc.; as a group having a condensed ring structure of an aromatic ring and a cyclobutane ring, for example, a group having a condensed ring structure of a cyclobutane ring and a benzene ring, a group having a condensed ring structure of a cyclobutane ring and a naphthalene ring, etc.; as a cyclic ether group, for example, an oxiranyl group, an oxetanyl group, etc.; as a protected carboxy group, a group “-COOR 9 ” (however, R 9 is a thermally dissociable group.), etc. can be respectively cited.

[0041] Specific examples of the group “-COOR 9 ” include, for example, a structure represented by the following formula (X-1), an acetal ester structure of a carboxylic acid, a ketal structure of a carboxylic acid, etc. can be respectively cited.

Chemical formula

[0042] Specific examples of the structure represented by the above formula (X-1) include a tert-butoxycarbonyl group, a 1-cyclopentylethoxycarbonyl group, a 1-cyclohexylethoxycarbonyl group, a 1-norbornylethoxycarbonyl group, a 1-phenylethoxycarbonyl group, a 1-(1-naphthyl)ethoxycarbonyl group, a 1-benzylethoxycarbonyl group, a 1-phenethyl ethoxycarbonyl group, and the like.

[0043] Specific examples of the acetal ester structure of a carboxylic acid include, for example, a 1-methoxyethoxycarbonyl group, a 1-ethoxyethoxycarbonyl group, a 1-propoxyethoxycarbonyl group, a 1-butoxyethoxycarbonyl group, a 1-cyclohexyloxyethoxycarbonyl group, a 2-tetrahydropyranyloxycarbonyl group, a 1-phenoxyethoxycarbonyl group, a 2-tetrahydrofuranyloxycarbonyl group, and the like.

[0044] Specific examples of the ketal ester structure of a carboxylic acid include a 1-methyl-1-methoxyethoxycarbonyl group, a 1-methyl-1-ethoxyethoxycarbonyl group, a 1-methyl-1-propoxyethoxycarbonyl group, a 1-methyl-1-butoxyethoxycarbonyl group, a 1-methyl-1-cyclohexyloxyethoxycarbonyl group, a 2-(2-methyltetrahydrofuranyl)oxycarbonyl group, a 2-(2-methyltetrahydropyranyl)oxycarbonyl group, a 1-methoxycyclopentyloxycarbonyl group, a 1-methoxycyclohexyloxycarbonyl group, and the like.

[0045] Among these, in terms of being able to enhance the effect of improving the adhesion to the metal contained in the plating layer 18 by generating the functional group FM by heat (preferably, heating during film formation), the crosslinkable group possessed by the polymer (I) is particularly preferably at least one selected from the group consisting of an acid anhydride group and a protected carboxy group. The polymer (I) particularly has a silanol group, an alkoxysilyl group, -N(Si(R 5 ) 3 ) 2It is preferable to have at least one selected from the group consisting of an amino group, a hydroxyl group, and a conjugated nitrogen-containing heterocyclic group, and at least one selected from the group consisting of an acid anhydride group and a protected carboxy group. Among them, in terms of high affinity with the silicon-containing group on the surface of the insulating layer 14 and the ability to improve the storage stability of the first composition, the polymer (I) preferably has at least one selected from the group consisting of a silanol group, an alkoxysilyl group, and a conjugated nitrogen-containing heterocyclic group, and more preferably has an alkoxysilyl group.

[0048] Specific examples thereof include, as the monomer having a silanol group, dimethoxyhydroxysilylstyrene, diethoxyhydroxysilylstyrene, dimethylhydroxysilylstyrene, diethylhydroxystyrene, etc.; As monomers having an alkoxysilyl group, 4-dimethylmethoxysilylstyrene, 4-diethylmethoxystyrene, 4-methylethylmethoxysilylstyrene, 3-(meth)acryloyloxypropyldimethylmethoxysilylstyrene, 3-(meth)acryloyloxypropyldiethylmethoxysilylstyrene, etc.; As monomers having a group “-N(Si(R 5 ) 3 ) 2 ”, compounds represented by each of the following formulas (UA-1) to (UA-3), etc.; As monomers having an amino group, aminomethyl (meth)acrylate, 2-aminoethyl (meth)acrylate, 3-aminopropyl (meth)acrylate, etc.; As monomers having a hydroxyl group, 2-hydroxyethyl (meth)acrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl (meth)acrylate, 3-hydroxypropyl (meth)acrylate, 4-hydroxybutyl (meth)acrylate, etc.; As monomers having a conjugated nitrogen-containing heterocyclic group, N-vinylcarbazole, N-vinylbenzocarbazole, N-vinyldibenzocarbazole, 2-fluoro-9-vinylcarbazole, 2-nitro-9-vinylcarbazole, 2-methoxy-9-vinylcarbazole, etc. can be respectively mentioned.

Also, the content of the polymer (I) is preferably 30% by mass or less, more preferably 20% by mass or less, and still more preferably 10% by mass or less with respect to the total amount of the polymer (I) and the solvent. When the content of the polymer (I) is 30% by mass or less, the film thickness of the organic film does not become too large, and the viscosity of the first composition does not become too high, and good coatability can be ensured.

[0071] 〔Other Components〕 In addition to the above-described polymer (I) and solvent, the first composition may further contain other components other than these. Examples of the other components include a polymer having no functional group F1, a surfactant (such as a fluorine-based surfactant, a silicone-based surfactant, a nonionic surfactant, etc.), an antioxidant, and the like.

Further, when the solid content concentration is 30% by mass or less, it is suitable in that the film thickness of the organic film does not become excessively large, and good coatability can be ensured by appropriately increasing the viscosity of the first composition. The solid content concentration of the first composition is more preferably 0.5 to 20% by mass, and still more preferably 0.7 to 10% by mass.

[0073] <The second composition> Next, each component contained in the second composition and other components blended as necessary will be described. The second composition is a polymer composition used for forming the second layer 17b of the organic film 17. When the polymer (I) has a crosslinkable group, the second composition preferably contains a polymer (II) having a functional group (hereinafter also referred to as "functional group F2") capable of forming a bond with the crosslinkable group of the polymer (I) and a solvent. By forming the organic film 17 as a laminated film of the first layer 17a and the second layer 17b and forming a crosslinked structure between the first layer 17a and the second layer 17b, an organic film excellent in heat resistance and dielectric breakdown resistance can be formed. Note that the functional group F2 corresponds to the "third functional group".

[0074] 〔Polymer (II)〕 · Functional group F2 The functional group F2 possessed by the polymer (II) may be any functional group that can react with the crosslinkable group possessed by the polymer (I) to form a bond, and is not particularly limited. In terms of being able to form an organic film excellent in adhesion to the plating layer 18 while maintaining good storage stability of the first composition and the second composition, the functional group F2 is preferably at least one of an oxazoline group and an epoxy group. In this specification, the "epoxy group" means including an oxiranyl group and an oxetanyl group.

In this case, a crosslinked structure is formed by the reaction between the crosslinkable group possessed by the polymer (I) and the functional group F2, so that the dielectric breakdown resistance of the organic film 17 can be improved. Also, in the reaction between an acid anhydride group or a protected carboxy group and an oxazoline group, an amide group is generated, and it is considered that the dielectric breakdown resistance can be further improved by the interaction by the amide bond. Furthermore, when the polymer (I) has an acid anhydride group, it is suitable in that the adhesion to the plating layer 18 can be further improved by the carboxy group generated by the crosslinking reaction.

Further, from the viewpoint of ensuring good substrate selectivity, the content of the structural unit U6 is preferably 40 mol% or less, more preferably 35 mol% or less, and still more preferably 30 mol% or less based on all the structural units constituting the polymer (II).

[0087] 〔Other components〕 In addition to the above-described polymer (II) and solvent, the second composition may further contain other components other than these. Examples of the other components include polymers having no functional group F2, surfactants (fluorine-based surfactants, silicone-based surfactants, nonionic surfactants, etc.), antioxidants, and the like. The blending amount of the other components can be appropriately selected according to each component within a range that does not impair the effects of the present invention.

[0088] The solid content concentration of the second composition is preferably in the range of 0.1 to 30% by mass. When the solid content concentration is 0.1% by mass or more, it is suitable in that the film thickness of the organic film can be sufficiently ensured.

The solid content concentration of the second composition is more preferably 0.5 to 20% by mass, and still more preferably 0.7 to 10% by mass.

[0091] The polymer (III) preferably has a crosslinkable group. In this case, the crosslinkable group possessed by the polymer (III) is a group different from the functional group FM and the functional group FP possessed by the polymer (III). When the polymer (III) has a crosslinkable group, the polymer (III) may have, as the functional group FM or the functional group FP, a group that forms a bond with the metal contained in the plating layer 18 and does not exhibit crosslinkability. Note that the crosslinkable group is a group different from the functional group F1.

Among these, as the crosslinkable group, a group capable of forming a bond between the same kind of groups can be preferably used. Note that the preferred content of each structural unit in the polymer (III) is the same as the range described for each structural unit in the polymer (I).

[0093] In polymer (III), examples of the structural unit having functional group FM or functional group FP include structural units derived from monomers having a carboxy group, a protected carboxy group, a sulfide group, a dithiocarbonyl group, a thiourethane group, or a thioamide group. From the viewpoint of adhesion to the plating layer 18, among them, at least one selected from the group consisting of a carboxy group, a protected carboxy group, and a sulfide group is preferable for the functional group FM or functional group FP possessed by polymer (III), and a sulfide group is more preferable. In polymer (III), the content of the structural unit having functional group FM or functional group FP is preferably 5 mol% or more, more preferably 10 mol% or more, based on all the structural units constituting polymer (III). Further, the content of the structural unit is preferably 70 mol% or less, more preferably 60 mol% or less, based on all the structural units constituting polymer (III).

[0094] In addition to the above-described polymer (III) and solvent, the third composition may also contain other components other than polymer (III) and the solvent. Examples of other components include polymers having no functional group F1, thermal acid generators (TAG), surfactants, antioxidants, and the like. Specific examples of the thermal acid generator include diphenyliodonium nonafluorobutanesulfonate and the like. When a thermal acid generator is blended in the third composition, the blending amount is preferably 10 mol% or less, more preferably 1 to 5 mol%, based on the total amount of the third composition, from the viewpoint of suppressing repelling when applying the third composition to a substrate while obtaining the effect of blending the thermal acid generator.

[0095] According to the configuration in which the organic film 17 is a single-layer film, the number of steps for forming an organic film on the inner surface of the via 11 can be minimized as much as possible, and the manufacturing process can be simplified. Further, while further thinning the organic film formed on the inner surface of the via 11, an organic film excellent in adhesion to the plating layer 18 can be formed on the inner surface of the via.

[0096] 《Kit for Forming a Stacked Film》 The kit for forming a laminated film of the present invention (hereinafter, also simply referred to as "film-forming kit") is used for the pretreatment when forming a plating layer 18 inside the via 11 in the manufacturing process of a multilayer wiring board, and is particularly suitable for the manufacturing process of a multilayer wiring board including wiring containing one or more selected from the group consisting of Co, Ni, W, and Ru. The mode of the kit is not particularly limited as long as it contains the above-described polymer (I) and polymer (II). One mode of the film-forming kit of the present invention is a kit including a first agent containing polymer (I) and a second agent containing polymer (II). In this case, it is preferable that the first agent is a first composition and the second agent is a second composition.

[0097] According to such a film-forming kit of the present invention, in the wiring formation process of forming multilayer wiring on a substrate, an organic film 17 (first layer 17a and second layer 17b) can be formed on the bottom 15 and the inner wall surface 12 of the via 11. This organic film 17 functions as a barrier layer and can suppress the diffusion of metal elements embedded inside the via into the insulating layer 14. Further, according to the method of embedding metal by plating inside the via 11 coated with the organic film 17, a plating layer 18 with less generation of voids and seams can be formed. Therefore, according to the film-forming kit of the present invention, a highly reliable device can be obtained.

[0098] 《Composition》 The composition of the present invention is a composition used for the pretreatment of embedding metal by plating inside the via 11 in the manufacturing process of a multilayer wiring board. This composition can be preferably used particularly in the manufacturing process of a multilayer wiring board including wiring containing one or more selected from the group consisting of Co, Ni, W, and Ru. The composition contains a polymer having at least one crosslinkable group selected from the group consisting of an acid anhydride group and a protected carboxy group and a functional group F1 (excluding the crosslinkable group), and a solvent. Details of the polymer and the solvent are as described above. According to such a composition, an organic film excellent in adhesion to the insulating layer 14 and adhesion to the plating layer 18 can be formed on the bottom 15 and the inner wall surface 12 of the via 11.
