[0014] According to the investigations of the present inventors, it has been found that there is a correlation between the oxygen permeability coefficient of a photosensitive resin composition and the reliability of a semiconductor device containing a cured product of the photosensitive resin composition. As a result of further investigations by the present inventors based on the above findings, it was found that the photosensitive resin composition was cured at 230°C for 3 hours to obtain a cured product of 100 mm x 100 mm x 10 μm in thickness. The oxygen permeability coefficient was measured by a differential pressure method in accordance with JIS K 7126-2:2006 under the conditions of 23°C and 60% RH, and the oxygen permeability coefficient was set to 30 cm 3 mm / (m 2 The present inventors have found that the reliability of a semiconductor device including a cured product of a photosensitive resin composition can be improved by controlling the temperature (T / C) of the photosensitive resin composition to 1000 K or less (T / C / C).
[0015] The oxygen permeability coefficient of the photosensitive resin composition of this embodiment is preferably 30 cm from the viewpoint of further improving the reliability of the resulting semiconductor device. 3 mm / (m 2 ·day·atm) or less, preferably 25cm 3 mm / (m 2 ·day·atm) or less, more preferably 22cm 3 mm / (m 2 ·day·atm) or less, more preferably 20cm 3 mm / (m 2 ·day·atm) or less, more preferably 15cm 3 mm / (m 2 ·day·atm) or less, more preferably 9cm 3 mm / (m 2 The lower limit of the oxygen permeability coefficient of the photosensitive resin composition of the present embodiment is not particularly limited, but is preferably 1 cm 3 mm / (m 2 ·day·atm) or more, and 2 cm 3 mm / (m 2 ·day·atm) or more, 3cm 3 mm / (m 2 ·day·atm) or more. In addition, the oxygen permeability coefficient of the photosensitive resin composition of this embodiment is preferably 1 cm or less from the viewpoint of further improving the reliability of the resulting semiconductor device. 3 mm / (m 2 ·day · atm) or more 30cm3 mm / (m 2 ·day·atm) or less, preferably 1cm 3 mm / (m 2 ·day · atm) or more 25cm 3 mm / (m 2 ·day·atm) or less, more preferably 2cm 3 mm / (m 2 ·day · atm) or more 22cm 3 mm / (m 2 ·day·atm) or less, more preferably 2cm 3 mm / (m 2 ·day · atm) or more 20cm 3 mm / (m 2 ·day·atm) or less, more preferably 3cm 3 mm / (m 2 ·day · atm) or more 15cm 3 mm / (m 2 ·day·atm) or less, more preferably 3cm 3 mm / (m 2 ·day · atm) or more 9cm 3 mm / (m 2 ·day·atm).
[0016] The oxygen permeability coefficient of the photosensitive resin composition of the present embodiment can be measured, for example, by the following method. First, a photosensitive resin composition was spin-coated onto the surface of a silicon wafer so that the film thickness after drying would be 10 μm, and the wafer was pre-baked at 110°C for 3 minutes. After that, the wafer was exposed to a high-pressure mercury lamp at 600 mJ / cm 2 After that, the film is post-baked in a nitrogen atmosphere at 230°C for 3 hours to produce a cured product measuring 100 mm x 100 mm x 10 μm in thickness. The oxygen permeability coefficient of the cured product is then measured by the differential pressure method in accordance with JIS K 7126-2:2006 under conditions of 23°C and 60% RH.
[0017] The oxygen permeability coefficient of the photosensitive resin composition can be adjusted to a desired value by, for example, adjusting the types and contents of components contained in the photosensitive resin composition.
