Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a photosensitive coloring composition for use in a color filter or the like. [Background technology]
[0002] Generally, color filters are formed on the surface of a transparent substrate such as glass. They consist of fine stripe-shaped filter segments (pixels) consisting of red (R), green (G), and blue (B) filter layers, arranged parallel or crosswise, or fine filter segments arranged in a fixed array. The filter segments are as small as several microns to several hundred microns and are arranged in a regular array for each hue. In recent years, liquid crystal display devices equipped with such color filters have been required to have higher brightness and a wider color reproduction range. Therefore, color filters are also required to have increasingly higher light transmittance, higher color purity, and thinner films. Green filter segments, in particular, are important as a material that can provide color filters with high light transmittance and a wide color reproduction range.
[0003] In addition to a green pigment as a colorant, a yellow pigment is used as a colorant for adjusting the color (toning colorant) for the green filter segment, and examples of such pigments include CI Pigment Yellow 138, CI Pigment Yellow 139, CI Pigment Yellow 150, CI Pigment Yellow 185, CI Pigment Yellow 231, and CI Pigment Yellow 233. Among these, quinophthalone pigments CI Pigment Yellow 138, CI Pigment Yellow 231, and CI Pigment Yellow 233 are often used because they provide high transmittance.
[0004] However, green filter segments using green pigments such as CI Pigment Green 7, CI Pigment Green 36, CI Pigment Green 58, CI Pigment Green 59, CI Pigment Green 62, and CI Pigment Green 63, zinc phthalocyanine pigments described in JP 2008-19383 A, JP 2007-320986 A, and JP 2004-70342 A, and phthalocyanine pigments described in JP 4893859 A, JP 2016-153481 A, and JP 2017-197685 A, etc., and quinophthalone yellow pigments have had problems such as a decrease in brightness due to continuous backlight irradiation, and a deterioration in dielectric dissipation factor that disrupts the alignment of liquid crystals and increases power consumption.
[0005] Therefore, as an effort to improve the decrease in brightness, Patent Document 1 discloses a colored resin composition containing, as colorants, a phthalocyanine colorant, a yellow colorant, and a metal compound that is a component different from the colorant. Furthermore, as an effort to improve the dielectric loss tangent, Patent Document 2 discloses a photosensitive colored resin composition for color filters that contains, as colorants, a phthalocyanine colorant, a yellow colorant, at least one anion selected from the group consisting of a specific azo compound and a mono-, di-, tri-, and tetra-anions of azo compounds having a tautomeric structure thereof, at least two metal ions, and a melamine derivative, and the dispersant is a polymer having a specific structural unit.

[0007] However, the coloring composition of Patent Document 1 does not take into consideration the suppression of the dielectric loss tangent, and the coloring composition of Patent Document 2 does not take into consideration the suppression of the decrease in lightness. Therefore, the prior art could not simultaneously suppress the decrease in lightness and the dielectric loss tangent.
[0008] An object of the present invention is to provide a green photosensitive coloring composition that can form a thin, high-brightness color filter in which the decrease in lightness and the dielectric loss tangent are suppressed. [Means for solving the problem]

[0012] According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a green photosensitive coloring composition capable of forming a color filter having a reduced dielectric loss tangent and excellent light resistance. Furthermore, it is possible to provide a color filter, a liquid crystal display device, and a solid-state imaging device. [Brief explanation of the drawings]
[0013] [Figure 1] FIG. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a liquid crystal display device. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0014] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the preferred embodiments. The present invention is not limited to the following embodiments, and various modifications can be made within the scope of the present invention.
[0015] In this specification, unless otherwise specified, the terms "(meth)acryloyl," "(meth)acrylic," "(meth)acrylic acid," "(meth)acrylate," or "(meth)acrylamide" refer to "acryloyl and / or methacryloyl," "acrylic and / or methacrylic," "acrylic acid and / or methacrylic acid," "acrylate and / or methacrylate," or "acrylamide and / or methacrylamide," respectively. "CI" refers to the Color Index (CI; published by The Society of Dyers and Colourists). The monomer is an ethylenically unsaturated group-containing compound.
[0016] <Green photosensitive coloring composition> The present invention provides a green photosensitive coloring composition comprising a colorant (A), a copper salt of a quinophthalone compound having a sulfo group (B), an alkali-soluble resin (C), a polymerizable compound (D), and a photopolymerization initiator (E), In the green colored composition, the colorant (A) contains a phthalocyanine pigment (A1), and the photopolymerization initiator (E) contains a compound (E1) represented by the following general formula (1).
[0017] Generally, green filter segments using phthalocyanine pigment (A1) and quinophthalone pigment (A2) tend to exhibit a decrease in lightness and a deterioration in dielectric loss tangent due to continuous backlight irradiation. The decrease in lightness is believed to be caused by photoexcitation of the phthalocyanine pigment (A1) upon backlight irradiation, resulting in electron transfer from the quinophthalone pigment (A2), resulting in a new absorption peak derived from the anion radical of the phthalocyanine pigment (A1). The green photosensitive coloring composition of the present invention is believed to improve lightness by transferring electrons from the anion radical of the phthalocyanine pigment (A1) to the copper salt (B) of a quinophthalone compound having a sulfo group. Furthermore, while the dielectric loss tangent deteriorates due to pigment aggregation, the use of compound (E1) represented by the following general formula (1) promotes internal curing of the coating film, thereby suppressing pigment aggregation during post-baking and improving the dielectric loss tangent.

[0041] The content of the colorant (A) is preferably from 5 to 70 mass %, more preferably from 10 to 60 mass %, based on 100 mass % of the nonvolatile content of the colored composition.
[0042] (Micronization of organic pigments) In the present invention, the organic pigment is preferably micronized before use. The micronization method is not particularly limited, and for example, wet milling, dry milling, or solution precipitation can be used. Among these, salt milling treatment using a kneader method, which is a type of wet milling, is preferred. The average primary particle diameter of the micronized pigment determined by TEM (transmission electron microscope) is preferably 5 to 90 nm. From the viewpoints of dispersibility and contrast ratio, the average primary particle diameter is more preferably 10 to 70 nm.
[0043] Salt milling is a process in which a mixture of a pigment, a water-soluble inorganic salt, and a water-soluble organic solvent is mechanically kneaded under heat using a kneader, two-roll mill, three-roll mill, ball mill, attritor, sand mill, or other kneading machine, and then the water-soluble inorganic salt and water-soluble organic solvent are removed by washing with water. The water-soluble inorganic salt acts as a crushing aid, and the high hardness of the inorganic salt is used to crush the pigment during salt milling.

[0185] [Antioxidant (N)] The green photosensitive coloring composition may contain an antioxidant (N). The antioxidant (N) prevents the photopolymerization initiator and thermosetting compound contained in the coloring composition from yellowing due to oxidation during the thermal process of thermal curing or ITO annealing, thereby suppressing a decrease in the transmittance of the coating. In particular, when the pigment concentration of the photosensitive composition is high, the content of the photopolymerizable compound decreases relatively, and if the amount of photopolymerization initiator is increased or a thermosetting compound is added to address this, the coating is likely to yellow. Therefore, by including an antioxidant, yellowing due to oxidation during the heating process can be prevented and a decrease in the transmittance of the coating can be suppressed.

[0205] The organic solvent (R) can be used alone or in combination of two or more kinds.
[0206] <Method for producing green photosensitive coloring composition> The green photosensitive coloring composition is produced by dispersing a colorant (A), a copper salt of a quinophthalone compound having a sulfo group (B), an alkali-soluble resin (C), and optionally a dispersing resin (F), an organic solvent (R), etc., to produce a dispersion. The dispersion may be prepared by simultaneously adding two or more colorants and dispersing them, or by mixing colorants that have been separately dispersed. The dispersion is then mixed with a leveling agent (H), and optionally a polymerizable compound (D) and a photopolymerization initiator (E). The timing of mixing each material is optional. The dispersion step can also be repeated multiple times.
[0207] Examples of dispersing machines for carrying out the dispersion treatment include a two-roll mill, a three-roll mill, a ball mill, a horizontal sand mill, a vertical sand mill, an annular bead mill, and an attritor.
[0208] The average dispersed particle size (secondary particle size) of the colorant (A) in the dispersion is preferably 30 to 200 nm, more preferably 40 to 200 nm. If the colorant (A) has an appropriate particle size, it is easy to obtain a colored composition with high dispersion stability.
[0209] The average dispersed particle size (secondary particle size) is measured using, for example, Nikkiso's Microtrac UPA-EX150, which employs dynamic light scattering (FFT power spectrum method), with particle permeability set to absorption mode, particle shape set to non-spherical, and the D50 particle size set to the average size. The dilution solvent used for measurement is the same organic solvent used for dispersion, and it is preferable to measure samples treated with ultrasound immediately after sample preparation, as this tends to provide results with little variation.
[0210] The green photosensitive coloring composition is preferably subjected to centrifugation, filtration using a sintered filter or a membrane filter, etc. to remove coarse particles of 5 μm or more, preferably coarse particles of 1 μm or more, more preferably coarse particles of 0.5 μm or more, and dust particles mixed in. The green photosensitive coloring composition preferably does not substantially contain particles of 0.5 μm or more, and more preferably does not contain particles of 0.3 μm or less.
[0211] <Color filter> The color filter of the present invention includes a substrate and a filter segment formed from a green photosensitive coloring composition, the filter segment being a green filter segment. The filter segments preferably have red, green, and blue filter segments by appropriately selecting the type of colorant (A) used. Furthermore, the color filter may have magenta, cyan, and yellow filter segments instead of the filter segments. A reflective substrate may be used instead of the transparent substrate. Examples of the transparent substrate include a glass substrate. Examples of the reflective substrate include a substrate using an aluminum electrode or a metal thin film as a reflective surface.
[0212] [Color filter manufacturing method] It is preferable to form a color filter by first forming a black matrix on a substrate and then forming filter segments. Alternatively, thin film transistors (TFTs) can be formed on the substrate before forming the black matrix. Examples of the black matrix include a multilayer film of chromium or chromium / chromium oxide, an inorganic film such as titanium nitride, and a resin film in which a light-blocking agent is dispersed.
[0213] The filter segments can be formed by, for example, a printing method, an electrodeposition method, a transfer method, an inkjet method, a photolithography method, etc. Among these, the photolithography method is preferred in terms of being able to produce a highly accurate color filter. In the photolithography method, for example, a photosensitive coloring composition containing a colorant of a certain color tone is applied to a transparent substrate to form a coating film with a dry film thickness of approximately 0.2 to 5 μm. The resulting coating film (hereinafter referred to as the first coating film) is exposed (irradiated with light) through a mask having a predetermined pattern. The coating film is then developed by immersing it in a solvent or alkaline developer or by spraying the developer onto the film using a spray or the like, and the uncured portions are removed to obtain the desired pattern. This process can be similarly performed using photosensitive coloring compositions containing colorants of other colors to produce color filters having filter segments of each color. Furthermore, a second coating film (oxygen barrier film) can be formed on the first coating film before exposure using polyvinyl alcohol or a water-soluble acrylic resin. This prevents the first coating film from coming into contact with oxygen, thereby further improving exposure sensitivity. Furthermore, the color filter can be heated to cure any uncured photopolymerizable compound in the filter segments.
[0214] Examples of the coating device include a spray coater, a spin coater, a slit coater, and a roll coater. A drying step can be carried out during coating. Examples of the drying device include a hot air oven and an infrared heater.
[0215] The developer may be an alkaline developer, such as an inorganic alkali such as sodium carbonate or sodium hydroxide, or an organic alkali such as dimethylbenzylamine or triethanolamine. The developer may also contain an antifoaming agent or a surfactant.
[0216] <Liquid crystal display device> The liquid crystal display device of the present invention comprises the color filter of the present invention. In a liquid crystal display device, the color filter after the filter segments are formed is bonded to an opposing substrate using a sealant, and liquid crystal is injected through an injection port provided in the seal portion, and the injection port is then sealed. If necessary, a polarizing film or a retardation film can be bonded to the outside of the substrate to produce a liquid crystal display device.
[0217] The liquid crystal display device of the present invention comprises the color filter of the present invention and a light source. Examples of light sources include cold cathode fluorescent lamps (CCFLs) and white LEDs. In the present invention, it is preferable to use a white LED because it broadens the red reproduction range. Figure 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a liquid crystal display device 10 equipped with the color filter of the present invention. The device 10 shown in Figure 1 comprises a pair of transparent substrates 11 and 21 arranged at a distance from each other, with a liquid crystal LC sealed between them.
[0218] The liquid crystal LC is aligned according to a driving mode such as TN (Twisted Nematic), STN (Super Twisted Nematic), IPS (En-Plane Switching), VA (Vertical Alignment), or OCB (Optically Compensated Birefringence). A TFT (Thin Film Transistor) array 12 is formed on the inner surface of the first transparent substrate 11, and a transparent electrode layer 13 made of, for example, ITO is formed thereon. An alignment layer 14 is provided on the transparent electrode layer 13. A polarizer 15 is formed on the outer surface of the transparent substrate 11.
[0219] On the other hand, a color filter 22 of the present invention is formed on the inner surface of the second transparent substrate 21. Red, green, and blue filter segments that make up the color filter 22 are separated by a black matrix (not shown).
[0220] A transparent protective film (not shown) is formed as needed to cover the color filter 22, and a transparent electrode layer 23 made of, for example, ITO is formed on top of that, and an alignment layer 24 is provided to cover the transparent electrode layer 23.
[0221] A polarizing plate 25 is formed on the outer surface of the transparent substrate 21. Below the polarizing plate 25, a backlight unit 30 is provided.
[0222] The white LED light source includes a blue LED with a fluorescent filter formed on the surface, and a blue LED with a fluorescent material contained in a resin package, and has a wavelength (λ3) in the range of 430 nm to 485 nm at which the emission intensity becomes maximum, a wavelength (λ4) in the range of 530 nm to 580 nm at which the emission intensity becomes maximum, and a wavelength (λ5) in the range of 600 nm to 650 nm at which the emission intensity becomes maximum, and the ratio (E4 / I3) of the emission intensity I3 at wavelength λ3 to the emission intensity I4 at wavelength λ4 is 0.2 or more and 0.4 or less. Therefore, a white LED light source (LED1) having spectral characteristics in which the ratio (E5 / I3) of the emission intensity I3 at wavelength λ3 to the emission intensity I5 at wavelength λ5 is 0.1 or more and 1.3 or less, or a white LED light source (LED2) having a wavelength (λ1) at which the emission intensity is maximum in the range of 430 nm to 485 nm, a second peak wavelength (λ2) of the emission intensity in the range of 530 nm to 580 nm, and a ratio (E2 / I1) of the emission intensity I1 at wavelength λ1 to the emission intensity I2 at wavelength λ2 is 0.2 or more and 0.7 or less is preferred.

[0224] Examples of the LED 2 include NSSW440 (manufactured by Nichia Chemical Industries), NSSW304D (manufactured by Nichia Chemical Industries), and the like.
[0225] <Solid-state imaging element> The solid-state imaging device of the present invention includes the color filter of the present invention. The configuration of the solid-state imaging device is not limited as long as it functions as a solid-state imaging device. For example, the following configurations can be mentioned.
[0226] The present invention is configured to have a substrate on which are disposed a plurality of photodiodes constituting the light receiving area of a solid-state imaging element (such as a CCD sensor, a CMOS sensor, or an organic CMOS sensor) and transfer electrodes made of polysilicon or the like, a light-shielding film made of tungsten or the like with only the light-receiving portion of the photodiodes being opened on the photodiodes and the transfer electrodes, a device protection film made of silicon nitride or the like formed on the light-shielding film so as to cover the entire light-shielding film and the light-receiving portion of the photodiodes, and the color filter of the present invention on the device protection film. Furthermore, the device may have a light-collecting means (for example, a microlens, etc.; the same applies below) on the device protection layer and below the color filter (on the side closer to the substrate), or may have a light-collecting means on the color filter. The organic CMOS sensor is composed of a thin-film panchromatic organic photoelectric conversion film as the photoelectric conversion layer and a CMOS signal readout substrate, and has a two-layer hybrid structure in which the organic material captures light and converts it into an electrical signal, while the inorganic material extracts the electrical signal externally, making it possible in principle to achieve a 100% aperture ratio for incident light.The organic photoelectric conversion film is a structure-free continuous film that can be laid on the CMOS signal readout substrate, eliminating the need for expensive microfabrication processes and making it suitable for miniaturizing filter segments.

The instrument used was an HLC-8220GPC (Tosoh Corporation). Two separation columns were connected in series, and both columns were packed with "TSK-GEL SUPER HZM-N" packing. Measurements were performed at an oven temperature of 40°C, a tetrahydrofuran (THF) solution as the eluent, and a flow rate of 0.35 ml / min. The sample was dissolved in a solvent consisting of 1 wt% of the above eluent, and 20 microliters was injected. The molecular weight is expressed in terms of polystyrene.

The solution was titrated using an automatic titrator ("COM-555" manufactured by Hiranuma Sangyo Co., Ltd.) with a 0.1 mol / L KOH aqueous solution as the titrant to measure the acid value (mg KOH / g). The acid value per unit of nonvolatile content of the resin was then calculated from the acid value of the resin solution and the concentration of nonvolatile content of the resin solution.
[0232] (Amine value of dispersion resin) The amine value of the dispersing resin is the total amine value (mgKOH / g) measured in accordance with the method of ASTM D 2074 and converted into solid content.

[0278] [Dielectric loss tangent evaluation] The obtained coloring composition was applied to a glass substrate on which a transparent conductive film (ITO film) had been formed using a spin coater, and the coating on the electrode part was wiped off with a solvent. After that, an integrated light intensity of 50 mJ / cm was applied. 2 Then, the substrate was subjected to a heat treatment at 230°C for 40 minutes, and after cooling, an Au vapor deposition agent was applied to an area of 3.464 × 10 -4 m -2 The electrode part was then fabricated, and a dielectric loss tangent evaluation substrate was fabricated. The luminance of the surface irradiated from the opposite side of the coated surface of this measurement substrate was 1000 cd / m 2 The coating surface was irradiated with light under the conditions of and the dielectric loss tangent at a frequency of 20 Hz was measured using an impedance analyzer ("1260" manufactured by Solartron). The evaluation criteria are as follows: 5: Less than 0.065 4: 0.065 or more, less than 0.075 3: 0.080 or more and less than 0.090 2: 0.090 or more and less than 0.100 1:0.100 or more
[0279] [Lightness rating] The obtained colored composition was applied to a glass substrate using a spin coater so that the chromaticity value of the coating after heat treatment was y = 0.65 with Illuminant C, and dried at 70 °C for 20 minutes. Then, an ultra-high pressure mercury lamp was used to irradiate the coating with an ultraviolet ray intensity of 50 mJ / cm. 2 The resist was then exposed to ultraviolet light at 40°C, spray-developed with a sodium carbonate aqueous solution at 23°C, washed with ion-exchanged water, air-dried, and heat-treated in an oven at 230°C for 40 minutes to form a colored composition layer on the glass substrate. Next, an overcoat agent was applied onto the colored composition layer using a spin coater, and the organic solvent was removed using a vacuum dryer. Thereafter, the resultant was baked on a hot plate at 90°C for 2 minutes, and then heat-treated at 230°C for 60 minutes to obtain a substrate for brightness evaluation. The initial brightness of the obtained substrate for brightness evaluation in the XYZ color system was measured using LVmicroZ (manufactured by Lambda Vision). The evaluation criteria for initial brightness are as follows: 5:55.0pts or above, extremely good brightness. 4: 54.0pts or more and less than 55.0pts, good brightness. 3: Practical brightness: 53.0pts or more and less than 54.0pts. 2: 52.0pts or more and less than 53.0pts, brightness that is not practical Less than 1:52.0pts, unusable brightness
[0280] After that, the LED lighting was irradiated for 200 hours, and the brightness was measured again. The brightness change rate was calculated using the following formula. A value of 3 or more is practical. Brightness change rate = |Brightness after 200 hours - initial brightness| / initial brightness x 100 The evaluation criteria are as follows: 5: Less than 3% 4: 3% or more, less than 5% 3: 5% or more, less than 10% 2: 10% or more, less than 15% 1:15% or more

Next, an ultra-high pressure mercury lamp was used to apply ultraviolet light with an integrated dose of 50 mJ / cm. 2The film was exposed to ultraviolet light through a stripe pattern photomask and spray-developed with a 23°C aqueous sodium carbonate solution. Spray development was carried out for the shortest time possible for forming a pattern without leaving any residual development residue on the coating of each photosensitive coloring composition. The film was then washed with ion-exchanged water and air-dried. After that, it was heat-treated in an oven at 230°C for 40 minutes to form a coloring composition layer on the glass substrate, and the film thickness of the pattern portion measuring 400 μm long x 400 μm wide was measured using a Dektak 3030 (manufactured by Japan Vacuum Engineering Co., Ltd.). The evaluation criteria are as follows: 5: Less than 2.0 μm, very good film thickness. 4: Good film thickness, 2.0 μm or more and less than 2.2 μm. 3: A practical film thickness of 2.2 μm or more and less than 2.5 μm. 2: A thickness of 2.5 μm or more and less than 3.0 μm, which is not practical. 1: 3.0 μm or more, impractical film thickness.
