Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a composition, a laminate, and a method for making a laminate. [Background technology]

[0002] As electronic devices become smaller, lighter, and more powerful, there is a demand for higher integration of semiconductor chips and the like. However, it is difficult to fully meet this demand through circuit miniaturization alone. Therefore, in recent years, a method has been proposed for achieving higher integration by vertically stacking multiple substrates (wafers), semiconductor chips, etc. to form a multilayer, three-dimensional structure. Proposed methods for stacking substrates (wafers), chips, etc. (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "substrates, etc.") include a method of directly bonding substrates together (fusion bonding) and a method of bonding substrates together via a resin layer (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 to 3 and Non-Patent Documents 1 and 2). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0005] While the method of bonding substrates via a resin layer has the advantage of being able to bond substrates at a lower temperature than fusion bonding, it also has the risk of warping or peeling due to strain at the bonding surface caused by the difference in thermal expansion coefficient between the resin layer and the substrate. While adding an inorganic filler is considered a way to reduce the thermal expansion coefficient of the resin layer, the addition of an inorganic filler may reduce the bonding strength with the substrate. Therefore, there is a need for a laminate with a resin layer that can achieve both a low thermal expansion coefficient and high bonding strength.

[0006] One aspect of the present invention has been made in consideration of the above-mentioned problems, and aims to provide a laminate including a resin layer having a low thermal expansion coefficient and excellent bonding strength to a substrate, a composition capable of forming a resin layer having a low thermal expansion coefficient and excellent bonding strength to a substrate, and a method for manufacturing a laminate having excellent bonding strength between a resin layer and a substrate.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0009] In the present disclosure, a numerical range expressed using "to" means a range that includes the numerical values ​​before and after "to" as the lower and upper limits. In the numerical ranges described in stages in this disclosure, the upper or lower limit value described in one numerical range may be replaced with the upper or lower limit value of another numerical range described in stages. Furthermore, in the numerical ranges described in this disclosure, the upper or lower limit value of that numerical range may be replaced with a value shown in the examples.

[0010] In the present disclosure, the molecular weight of a compound may be a value calculated from a known molecular structure or may be a value measured by a known method, such as a weight-average molecular weight in terms of polyethylene glycol measured by Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC). Specifically, when measuring the weight-average molecular weight by GPC, an aqueous solution of sodium nitrate with a concentration of 0.1 mol / L is used as the developing solvent, a Shodex DET RI-101 is used as the analytical device, and two analytical columns (TSKgel G6000PWXL-CP and TSKgel G3000PWXL-CP, manufactured by Tosoh Corporation) are used to detect the refractive index at a flow rate of 1.0 mL / min, and the weight-average molecular weight is calculated using analytical software (Empower3, manufactured by Waters Corporation) with polyethylene glycol / polyethylene oxide as standards.

[0011] <Laminate> The laminate of this embodiment comprises a substrate and a resin layer, wherein the resin layer has a coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of 120 ppm / K or less between 50°C and 150°C, a silicon atom content of 0.1 atm% or more and 20 atm% or less, and a ratio of the number of oxygen atoms to the number of silicon atoms (O / Si) of 1 or more.

[0012] As a result of the inventors' research, it was found that a laminate having a resin layer that satisfies the above conditions is less likely to warp or peel due to the difference in thermal expansion coefficient between the resin layer and the substrate, and has excellent bonding strength with the substrate.

[0013] The resin layer contained in the laminate has a CTE of 120 ppm / K or less between 50° C. and 150° C. By having a CTE of 120 ppm / K or less between 50° C. and 150° C., the difference in thermal expansion coefficient between the resin layer and the substrate can be reduced, and warping and peeling at the bonding surface can be suppressed. The CTE between 50°C and 150°C is preferably 90 ppm / K or less, more preferably 80 ppm / K or less, and even more preferably 50 ppm / K or less.

[0014] The CTE of the resin layer can be measured by the method described in the examples below.

[0015] The resin layer has a silicon atom content of 0.1 atm% or more and 20 atm% or less. When the silicon atom content is within this range, sufficient bonding strength to the substrate is ensured. The silicon atom content is preferably 0.5 atm% or more and 15 atm% or less, and more preferably 0.5 atm% or more and 10 atm% or less.

[0016] The resin layer has a ratio of the number of oxygen atoms to the number of silicon atoms (O / Si) of 1 or more. When the ratio of the number of oxygen atoms to the number of silicon atoms is 1 or more, adhesion to the substrate tends to be high. The ratio of the number of oxygen atoms to the number of silicon atoms (O / Si) is preferably 1.5 or more, and more preferably 2 or more. From the viewpoint of reducing water absorption, the ratio of the number of oxygen atoms to the number of silicon atoms (O / Si) is preferably 20 or less, and more preferably 15 or less.

[0017] The resin layer preferably has a nitrogen atom content of 0.1 atm% or more and 20 atm% or less. If the nitrogen atom content is within this range, adhesion to the substrate tends to be improved when the substrate contains a metal. The nitrogen atom content is preferably 2 atm% or more and 15 atm% or less, and more preferably 5 atm% or more and 10 atm% or less. The silicon atom content, nitrogen atom content, and ratio of the number of oxygen atoms to the number of silicon atoms in the resin layer can be measured by elemental analysis methods such as X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX).

[0018] The laminate is 10 -7 The outgassing pressure measured in an environment of 10 Pa is -5 It is preferable that the temperature at which the pressure of outgassing is 10 Pa or more is 400° C. or more. When the temperature is 400° C. or more, the decrease in bonding strength due to outgassing tends to be suppressed. -5 The temperature at which the outgas pressure is 10 Pa or more is preferably 420° C. or more, and more preferably 450° C. or more. -5 The upper limit of the temperature at which the thermal expansion coefficient becomes equal to or greater than Pa is not particularly limited, but may be, for example, 600°C or lower, or 550°C or lower.

[0019] 10 of the laminate -7 The outgas pressure measured in an environment of 1 Pa can be measured by the method described in the examples below.

[0020] The thickness of the resin layer is not particularly limited and may be, for example, 0.001 μm to 20 μm, 0.05 μm to 10 μm, or 0.1 μm to 6 μm.

[0021] The resin layer preferably contains inorganic or resin fillers with a maximum diameter of 0.3 μm or more in an amount of 30% by mass or less, more preferably 10% by mass or less, and even more preferably 0% by mass, based on the total mass of the resin layer. When the content of the filler contained in the resin layer is within the above range, bonding defects of the laminate can be suppressed even when the thickness of the resin layer is thin. Furthermore, when a first substrate on which a resin layer is formed is laminated on a second substrate, alignment marks formed on each substrate are sometimes recognized by a machine for alignment. When the content of the filler is within the above range, the transparency of the resin film is improved, enabling more accurate alignment.

[0022] The glass transition temperature (Tg) of the resin layer is preferably 100°C or higher and 350°C or lower. When Tg is within this temperature range, the elastic modulus of the film decreases when subjected to a high-temperature process, thereby reducing warping and internal stress of the laminate and preventing a decrease in bonding strength due to peeling or the like. Tg is more preferably 100°C or higher and 300°C or lower, even more preferably 120°C or higher and 250°C or lower, and even more preferably 120°C or higher and 200°C or lower. The Tg of the resin layer can be measured by the method described in the Examples below.

[0023] The water absorption rate of the resin layer is preferably 3% by mass or less. When the water absorption rate is within the above range, outgassing from the resin can be effectively suppressed, and the occurrence of defects such as voids and peeling in the laminate can be effectively suppressed. The water absorption rate is more preferably 2% by mass or less. The water absorption rate of the resin layer can be measured by the method described in the examples below.

[0024] The elastic modulus of the resin layer at 250°C is preferably 0.01 GPa or more and 20 GPa or less. When the elastic modulus at 250°C is within the above range, the internal stress when the laminate is heated can be reduced, and warping, peeling, malfunction of the device layer, etc. can be suppressed. The elastic modulus at 250°C is more preferably 0.01 GPa or more and 10 GPa or less, and even more preferably 0.1 GPa or more and 5 GPa or less. The elastic modulus of the resin layer at 250° C. can be measured using an atomic force microscope (AFM) by the method described in the Examples.

[0025] The hardness of the resin layer at room temperature (23°C) is preferably 0.05 GPa or more and 1.8 GPa or less. If the hardness is within the above range, cracking of the film can be suppressed when an external force such as wire bonding is applied to the laminate. The hardness is more preferably 0.2 GPa or more and 1.5 GPa or less, and even more preferably 0.3 GPa or more and 1.0 GPa or less. The hardness of the resin layer is measured by a method (nanoindentation) conforming to ISO14577. Specifically, with a resin layer formed on a silicon substrate, a nanoindenter (Berkovich type indenter) is used to measure the unloading-displacement curve at 23°C under the condition of an indentation depth of 20 nm. According to the calculation method in the reference (Handbook of Micro / nano Tribology (Second Edition), edited by Bharat Bhushan, CRC Press), the hardness at 23°C is calculated from the maximum load. The hardness (H) is defined by the following formula: where P max represents the maximum load at an indentation depth of 20 nm, and A c represents the projected area of ​​the indenter onto the sample during indentation.

[0027] The elastic modulus of the resin layer at room temperature (23°C) is preferably 0.1 GPa or more and 20 GPa or less. If the elastic modulus at room temperature is within the above range, warping and peeling can be suppressed when an external force such as compression or shear is applied to the laminate. The elastic modulus at room temperature is more preferably 0.5 GPa or more and 10 GPa or less, and even more preferably 1 GPa or more and 7 GPa or less. The elastic modulus of the resin layer at room temperature is measured by forming the resin layer on a silicon substrate and measuring the unloading-displacement curve at 23°C using a nanoindentator (Berkovich-type indenter) at an indentation depth of 20 nm. The elastic modulus at 23°C is calculated from the maximum load and maximum displacement according to the calculation method in the reference book (Handbook of Micro / nano Tribology (Second Edition), edited by Bharat Bhushan, CRC Press). The elastic modulus is defined by the following formula: r represents the elastic modulus, and E i represents the Young's modulus of the indenter, which is 1140 GPa, and νi represents the Poisson's ratio of the indenter, which is 0.07, and E s and ν s represent the Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio of the sample, respectively.

[0029] When the thickness of the resin layer is 400 nm or more, the amount of plastic deformation of the resin layer is preferably 2 nm or more at an indentation depth of 20 nm when measured with a nanoindenter (Berkovich indenter). If the amount of plastic deformation is within the above range, when the resin layer is used in a substrate laminate, the resin layer undergoes plastic deformation when the substrate laminate is further laminated on another substrate, thereby preventing cracking of the substrate laminate. The amount of plastic deformation of the resin layer is determined by measuring the unloading-displacement curve at 23°C using a nanoindentator (Berkovich type indenter) at an indentation depth of 20 nm with the resin layer formed on a silicon substrate, and then determining the amount of plastic deformation from the unloading curve.

[0030] When the thickness of the resin layer is 400 nm or more, the load required to deform the resin layer is preferably 20 μN or less when a nanoindenter (Berkovich indenter) is used to indent the resin layer to a depth of 20 nm. If the load required for deformation is within the above range, when the resin layer is used in a substrate laminate, the resin layer is easily deformed when the substrate laminate is further laminated on another substrate, and cracking of the substrate laminate can be effectively suppressed. The load required to deform the resin layer is determined by measuring the unloading-displacement curve at 23°C using a nanoindentator (Berkovich-type indenter) at an indentation depth of 20 nm with the resin layer formed on the silicon substrate, and calculating the load at an indentation depth of 20 nm.

[0031] The type of resin contained in the resin layer is not particularly limited as long as it satisfies the above conditions. From the viewpoint of insulating properties, the resin layer preferably contains a silicone resin. Furthermore, from the viewpoint of heat resistance, it is preferable to contain a silicone resin containing a ring structure such as an aromatic ring, and it is more preferable to contain a silicone resin containing a ring structure and an imide bond. Examples of silicone resins include cured products of the compound (X1) or compound (X2) contained in the composition described below.

[0032] When the resin layer contains a silicone resin, the organic crosslink density is measured by measuring the peaks derived from Si-O bonds in the Fourier transform infrared spectrum (peak position 1000 to 1100 cm -1 The peak due to the Si-Me bond (peak position 1260 cm) -1 ) intensity ratio (peak intensity ratio) is preferably 0.9 or less, more preferably 0.8 or less, and even more preferably 0.6 or less. When the organic crosslink density of the silicone resin is within the above numerical range, the adhesive strength to a substrate containing Si, such as Si, SiC, SiO2, SiN, or SiCN, tends to be high.

[0033] When the resin layer contains a silicone resin, the basic unit of the silicone resin is: 29 In a Si NMR spectrum, it is preferable that the unit that accounts for 50% or more of the area of ​​all base units (M units, D units, T units, and Q units) is a D unit or a T unit. The area ratio of T units or D units is more preferably 70% or more, and even more preferably 90% or more, of all base units. When the basic unit of the silicone resin satisfies the above conditions, the resin layer can maintain high crack resistance while maintaining good bonding strength. In particular, it is more preferable that the unit that accounts for 50% or more of the total area of ​​all basic units is the D unit.

[0034] When the resin layer contains a silicone resin, the degree of condensation of the silicone resin is: 29In the Si NMR spectrum, it is preferable that the unit that accounts for 70% or more of the area of ​​each of the base units (M unit, D unit, T unit, Q unit) is a D2 unit or a T3 unit. When the base unit satisfies the above conditions, it is possible to suppress outgassing due to water adsorption to SiOH, etc., which are dangling bonds contained in the silicone resin.

[0058] In general formula (2), R1 and R3 each independently represent an organic group having 6 or less carbon atoms, R2 represents a methylene group, an ethylene group, a propylene group, or a phenylene group, a represents 2 or 3, b represents the number 3-a, X1 represents a structure derived from a carboxylic acid dianhydride, X2 represents a structure derived from an amine compound, and n represents a positive number.

[0059] The composition allows the formation of a resin layer with less residual stress than a composition containing unreacted precursors of compound (X1) or compound (X2), such as a silane coupling agent, a carboxylic acid dianhydride, or an amine compound. The reason for this is not entirely clear, but it is thought that, for example, by having the precursors of compound (X1) or compound (X2) in a reacted state before applying the composition to the substrate, the cure shrinkage of the resin layer associated with the reaction is suppressed, and the residual stress of the resin layer is reduced, compared to when a resin layer is formed by reacting these precursors on a substrate.

[0060] In general formula (1), X1 is a structure derived from a carboxylic dianhydride, preferably containing a ring structure. Furthermore, the amide group and carboxyl group bonded to X1 react on the substrate to form an imide bond. Therefore, the resulting resin layer exhibits excellent heat resistance.

[0061] In general formula (1), a is preferably 2. In general formula (1), the organic group having 6 or less carbon atoms represented by R1 and R3 includes an alkyl group having 6 or less carbon atoms, preferably 3 or less carbon atoms, more preferably 2 or less carbon atoms.

[0062] In general formula (2), X1 and X2 are structures derived from a carboxylic acid dianhydride and an amine compound, respectively, and preferably contain a ring structure.

Specific examples of the functional group include an amino group, an epoxy group, and an isocyanate group. From the viewpoint of the thermal expansion coefficient and bonding strength of the resin layer, the silane coupling agent (A) preferably has an amino group, and from the viewpoint of forming an imide structure in the resin layer to improve heat resistance, a compound having a primary amino group (-NH2) is more preferred.

[0068] The silane coupling agent (A) may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0069] The molecular weight of the silane coupling agent (A) is not particularly limited and may be, for example, 130 or more and 10,000 or less, 130 or more and 5,000 or less, or 130 or more and 2,000 or less.

Furthermore, when a first substrate on which a resin layer has been formed is laminated on a second substrate, alignment marks formed on each substrate may be recognized by a machine for alignment. When the content of the filler is within the above range, the transparency of the resin film is improved, enabling more accurate alignment.

[0116] The method for forming a layer by spin coating is not particularly limited, and for example, a method can be used in which a solution is dropped onto the surface of a substrate while the substrate is rotating with a spin coater, and then the rotation speed of the substrate is increased to dry the substrate. The conditions such as the rotation speed of the substrate, the amount and time of dropping the solution, and the rotation speed of the substrate during drying are not particularly limited, and may be appropriately adjusted taking into account the thickness of the layer to be formed, etc.

[0117] (2nd process) In the second step, the layer containing the composition is cured. Specifically, the compound (X1) or the compound (X2) contained in the layer is reacted to form a layer containing a cured product (resin layer). The method for reacting the compound (X1) or the compound (X2) includes a method of heating the compound (X1) or the compound (X2) at a temperature at which the compound (X1) or the compound (X2) undergoes a curing reaction (for example, 70°C to 450°C). The temperature is preferably 100°C to 450°C, more preferably 100°C to 400°C, and even more preferably 150°C to 350°C.

[0118] The pressure during heating is not particularly limited. For example, heating may be performed at an absolute pressure exceeding 17 Pa but not exceeding atmospheric pressure. The pressure is preferably 1,000 Pa or more but not exceeding atmospheric pressure, more preferably 5,000 Pa or more but not exceeding atmospheric pressure, and even more preferably 10,000 Pa or more but not exceeding atmospheric pressure.

[0119] The heating method is not particularly limited, and can be a conventional method using a furnace or a hot plate. Examples of furnaces that can be used include SPX-1120 manufactured by Apex Corporation and VF-1000LP manufactured by Koyo Thermo Systems Co., Ltd. The heating step may be carried out in an air atmosphere or in an inert gas atmosphere (nitrogen gas, argon gas, helium gas, etc.).

[0120] The heating time is not particularly limited and may be, for example, 3 hours or less, or 1 hour or less. The lower limit of the heating time is not particularly limited and may be, for example, 30 seconds or more, 3 minutes or more, or 5 minutes or more.

[0121] When heating is performed at 70°C to 250°C, the heating time may be 300 seconds or less, 200 seconds or less, 120 seconds or less, or 80 seconds or less. In this case, the heating time may be 10 seconds, 20 seconds or more, or 30 seconds or more.

[0122] The heating temperature may be constant or may be varied. For example, the method may include a low-temperature heating step (70°C to 250°C) and a higher-temperature heating step (100°C to 450°C).

[0123] To shorten the heating step time, the layer containing the composition formed on the substrate may be irradiated with ultraviolet light. The ultraviolet light preferably has a wavelength of 170 to 230 nm, an excimer light having a wavelength of 222 nm, or an excimer light having a wavelength of 172 nm. Furthermore, it is preferable to irradiate the layer with ultraviolet light under an inert gas atmosphere.

[0124] (Pressure process) In the method for producing the laminate, it is preferable to press the laminate simultaneously with or after the second step (heating). By pressing the laminate, the contact area between the substrate and the resin layer increases, which tends to further improve the bonding strength.

[0125] When the laminate is pressed while being heated, the pressing pressure is preferably 0.1 MPa to 50 MPa, more preferably 0.1 MPa to 10 MPa, and even more preferably 0.1 MPa to 5 MPa. As the pressing device, for example, TEST MINI PRESS manufactured by Toyo Seiki Seisaku-sho, Ltd. may be used. When the laminate is pressed while being heated, the heating temperature is preferably 100° C. to 450° C., more preferably 100° C. to 400° C., and even more preferably 150° C. to 350° C. This tends to suppress damage to semiconductor circuits formed on the substrate.

[0126] When the laminate is heated and then pressed, the pressing pressure is preferably 0.1 MPa to 50 MPa, and more preferably 0.1 MPa to 10 MPa. As a pressing device, for example, TEST MINI PRESS manufactured by Toyo Seiki Seisaku-sho, Ltd. may be used. Furthermore, the pressing time is not particularly limited, but can be, for example, 0.5 seconds to 1 hour.

[0127] The temperature at which the laminate is heated and then pressed is preferably 10° C. or higher and lower than 100° C., more preferably 10° C. to 70° C., even more preferably 15° C. to 50° C., and particularly preferably 20° C. to 30° C. The temperature refers to the temperature of the surface of the substrate to which the composition is applied.

[0128] (Post-heating process) The method for producing the laminate may include a post-heating step of further heating the laminate after the second step. By including the post-heating step, the bonding strength tends to be better.

[0129] The heating temperature in the post-heating step is preferably 100°C to 450°C, more preferably 150°C to 420°C, and even more preferably 150°C to 400°C. The pressure during the post-heating step may be an absolute pressure of more than 17 Pa and equal to or less than atmospheric pressure, preferably equal to or more than 1000 Pa and equal to or less than atmospheric pressure, more preferably equal to or more than 5000 Pa and equal to or less than atmospheric pressure, and even more preferably equal to or more than 10000 Pa and equal to or less than atmospheric pressure. In the post-heating step, it is preferable not to press the laminate. [Example]

The films were then peeled off from the resin film to obtain freestanding films with thicknesses of 10 μm to 70 μm. The chemical bond state of the freestanding films was measured by a microscopic transmission method using a Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometer (Nicolet / iN10MX, manufactured by Thermo Scientific).

[0178] (CTE measurement) Using a thermomechanical analyzer (TMA) (Hitachi High-Tech Science Corporation, TMA7100C), the expansion coefficient (tensile mode, load 0.1 N) of the freestanding film obtained in the same manner as in the measurement of the peak intensity ratio was measured in a nitrogen atmosphere at 0°C to 400°C. The CTE was calculated by fitting the equation (expansion coefficient) = (CTE) × (temperature) + (constant) to the data from 50°C to 150°C using the least squares method for the relationship curve between the expansion coefficient and temperature. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0179] (Tg measurement) Using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) (TA Instruments, DSC2500), the heat flow (heating rate and cooling rate: 10°C / min) of the freestanding film obtained in the same manner as in the peak intensity ratio measurement was measured in a nitrogen atmosphere from 23°C to 400°C, and Tg was calculated from the temperature of the inflection point.

The results are shown in Table 1.

[0182] (Measurement of silicon atomic weight) Using an AXIS-NOVA (KRATOS) X-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS), the silicon atomic weight of the resin layer on the Si substrate was measured. Specifically, the total amount of each element detected in the wide spectrum was taken as 100%, and the silicon atomic weight on the surface of the resin layer was measured by measuring the atomic ratio from the peak intensity of the narrow spectrum of each element. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0183] (O / Si element ratio measurement) Using an AXIS-NOVA (KRATOS) for XPS, the O / Si element ratio of the resin layer on the Si substrate was measured.

The results are shown in Table 1.

[0184] (Measurement of nitrogen atomic weight) Using an AXIS-NOVA (KRATOS) XPS, the amount of nitrogen atoms in the resin layer of the Si substrate on which the resin layer was formed was measured. Specifically, the amount of nitrogen atoms on the surface of the resin layer was measured by measuring the atomic ratio from the peak intensity of the narrow spectrum of each element when the total amount of each element detected in the wide spectrum was taken as 100%. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0185] (Outgassing is 10 -5 (Measurement of temperature above 100 Pa) The Si substrate on which the resin layer was formed was cut into a 10 mm x 10 mm square to prepare a sample for outgassing measurement. Using the sample for outgassing measurement, the amount of outgassing was measured by heating using an ESCO EMD-WA1000S. The ambient pressure (base pressure) was 10 -7 The temperature was measured at a rate of 30°C / min. The surface temperature of the silicon substrate was measured by calibrating the thermocouple under the stage using the outgas peaks of standard samples (H+-implanted silicon, CaCO4-droplet, and Ar+-implanted silicon wafer). The temperature rises and the outgas pressure reaches 1×10 -5 The temperature at which the viscosity reached 1 Pa was determined. The results are shown in Table 1. The higher the temperature, the less likely the outgassing is to occur.

[0186] (Elastic modulus measured by AFM at 250℃) The elastic modulus of the Si substrate on which the resin layer was formed was calculated by fitting the force curve measured under vacuum at a stage temperature of 250°C using an AFM (product name E-sweep, manufactured by SII NanoTechnology, AFM force mapping mode, Si probe (spring constant equivalent to 2 N / m)) using the DMT theoretical formula. The results are shown in Table 1. The theoretical formula for DMT is shown below. In the formula, E represents the elastic modulus of the resin film, ν represents the Poisson's ratio of the resin film, R represents the tip diameter of the cantilever, δ represents the indentation depth, F represents the force applied to the sample, and F c indicates the maximum adhesive force. Poisson's ratio is assumed to be 0.33.

If no voids or fillers were observed, the resin layer was judged to be uniform and rated as ○. If voids or fillers were observed, the resin layer was judged to have a non-uniform structure and rated as ×. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0189] <Preparation of laminate> A silicon substrate with a native oxide film formed on its surface was stacked on top of the layer prepared on the silicon substrate in the examples and comparative examples, and heated at 200°C for 30 minutes in a nitrogen atmosphere to prepare a laminate with a structure of silicon substrate / resin layer (layer equivalent to a resin layer in the comparative examples) / silicon substrate. The resulting laminate was evaluated for bonding strength (surface energy) and for void generation after heating at 300° C. for 30 minutes. The results are shown in Table 1.

[0190] (surface energy measurement) The surface energy (bonding strength) at the bonded interface of the laminate was measured by a blade insertion test according to the method described in the non-patent document "MP Maszara, G. Goetz, A. Cavigila, and J.B.M. McKitterick, Journal of Applied Physics, 64 (1988) 4943-4950." Specifically, a 0.25 mm thick blade was inserted between the substrates, and the distance from the blade edge to the separation of the substrates was measured using an infrared light source and an infrared camera. The surface energy was then measured according to the following formula:

[0191]

[0193] (Evaluation of void occurrence) The presence or absence of voids between the substrates of the laminate was observed using an infrared microscope. Specifically, the laminate was observed using infrared transmitted light using a semiconductor internal observation device C9597-42U30 (Hamamatsu Photonics K.K.) and an infrared microscope MX63-IR (Olympus Corporation). The voids on the entire surface of the laminate were compared before and after heating at 300°C for 30 minutes in a nitrogen atmosphere, and the presence or absence of newly generated voids after heating at 300°C for 30 minutes was confirmed. If no voids were observed, the result was recorded as "absent," and if voids were observed, the result was recorded as "present." The results are shown in Table 1.

[0194] [Table 1]

[0195] Blank cells in Table 1 indicate that the relevant item has not been tested. As shown in Table 1, the resin layer satisfying the conditions of this embodiment has a low coefficient of thermal expansion, and the surface energy measurement results show that it has excellent bonding strength with the substrate. Furthermore, no voids were observed after heating at 300°C for 30 minutes, indicating that it has excellent heat resistance.
