AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies face challenges in forming thick film partition walls with high reflectivity and light-blocking properties for high-definition displays, as they either suffer from poor pattern processability due to light absorption during exposure, tackiness after pre-baking, or differences in curing that lead to wrinkling and line width deviations.
A resin composition containing a photoradical generator, hindered phenol and/or hindered amine compounds, polysiloxane with specific structures, and (meth)acrylic or cardo polymers with specific structures, in a weight ratio of 30/70 to 70/30, allows for the formation of thick film partition walls with tackless properties after pre-baking and heat resistance after curing, matching the designed line width even during high exposure processing.
The resin composition enables the formation of fine thick film barrier ribs with excellent tackless properties after pre-baking and heat resistance after curing, maintaining the designed line width and improving brightness and light-blocking properties in high-definition displays.

Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a resin composition, a light-shielding film formed from the resin composition, and a substrate with partition walls having patterned partition walls. [Background technology]
[0002] In recent years, color display devices with improved light utilization efficiency have been proposed, each of which includes a light source, a wavelength conversion unit made of a wavelength-converting phosphor, a polarization separation unit, and a polarization conversion unit (see, for example, Patent Document 1).For example, a color display device has been proposed that includes a blue light source, a liquid crystal element, a phosphor that is excited by blue light to emit red fluorescence, a phosphor that is excited by blue light to emit green fluorescence, and a wavelength conversion unit that has a light-scattering layer that scatters the blue light (see, for example, Patent Document 2).
[0003] However, color filters containing color-converting phosphors as described in Patent Documents 1 and 2 emit fluorescence in all directions, resulting in low light extraction efficiency and insufficient brightness. In particular, in high-definition display devices such as 4K and 8K, pixel sizes become smaller, making brightness issues more pronounced, and higher brightness is therefore required. In order to improve the brightness of a display device, it is effective to separate color-converting phosphors with highly reflective partition walls. Furthermore, the light-blocking properties of the partition walls must be high to prevent color mixing between adjacent pixels. Therefore, there is a demand for partition wall materials that combine high reflectivity and high light-blocking properties. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]
[0004] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2000-131683 [Patent Document 2] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2009-244383 [Patent Document 3] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2000-347394 [Patent Document 4] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2006-259421 [Patent Document 5] International Publication No. 2020 / 008969 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0005] In order to form barrier ribs that have both high reflectivity and high light-shielding properties, the inventors first investigated a method of using a material in which a light-shielding pigment was added to a white barrier rib material using a titanium oxide white pigment that exhibits high reflectivity. However, with this method, the white pigment and the light-shielding pigment absorbed all of the exposure light, preventing the light from reaching the bottom of the film during exposure, resulting in poor pattern processability.
[0006] As described in Patent Documents 3 and 4, techniques have been proposed in which a specific metal compound is added to blacken the film by baking it after pattern formation. However, these blackening techniques have the problem that baking at 400°C or higher is required, and heating at 250°C or lower does not improve the light-blocking properties.
[0007] Therefore, the inventors devised a design that allows the exposure light to pass through during the pattern exposure process after film formation, and increases the light-blocking properties after heating the exposed film at a temperature of 120°C or higher and 250°C or lower. This was achieved by using a resin composition containing a resin, an organometallic compound containing at least one metal selected from the group consisting of silver, gold, platinum, and palladium, a photopolymerization initiator or a quinone diazide compound, and a solvent (see Patent Document 5). In particular, the inventors discovered that using polysiloxane as the resin allows the formation of partition walls with high heat resistance.
[0008] However, this technology has the problem that when polysiloxane is used as the resin, the film becomes tacky after pre-baking, making it difficult to handle the substrate during processing. On the other hand, when (meth)acrylic polymers and / or cardo polymers are used as the resin, tackiness after pre-baking is improved, but when forming thick barrier ribs with a height of 10 μm or more, differences in the degree of hardening occur between the top and bottom of the film, and wrinkles occur due to stress differences after curing. Furthermore, it has been found that barrier ribs formed using (meth)acrylic polymers and / or cardo polymers have lower heat resistance and weather resistance than those formed using siloxane polymers.
[0009] To form a thick barrier rib with a height of 10 μm or more, 300 to 500 mJ / cm 2 In some cases, pattern processing is performed with a high exposure dose, but in such cases, another problem has become apparent: the line width of the formed partition wall becomes significantly wider than the line width design of the photomask.
[0010] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a resin composition that can form thick film partition walls that have both tackless film properties after pre-baking and heat resistance after curing, in accordance with the designed line width of a photomask even during high exposure processing. [Means for solving the problem]
[0011] As a result of extensive research, the inventors of the present application have discovered that by forming partition walls from a resin composition containing a photoradical generator, a hindered phenol compound and / or a hindered amine compound, a polysiloxane having a specific structure, and a (meth)acrylic polymer having a specific structure and / or a cardo-based polymer having a specific structure, wherein the ratio of the weight of the polysiloxane to the total weight of the (meth)acrylic polymer and the cardo-based polymer is 30 / 70 to 70 / 30, it is possible to form thick film partition walls that have both tackless properties after pre-baking and heat resistance after curing, according to the design line width of the photomask, even during high exposure processing, and have completed the present invention.

The resin composition of the present invention can be suitably used as a material for forming partition walls that separate light-emitting sources such as color-converting phosphors, organic EL cells, mini LED cells, and micro LED cells.
[0018] The resin composition of the present invention contains a photoradical generator, a hindered phenol compound and / or a hindered amine compound, a polysiloxane having a specific structure, and a (meth)acrylic polymer having a specific structure and / or a cardo polymer having a specific structure, and it is preferable that the ratio of the weight of the polysiloxane to the total weight of the (meth)acrylic polymer and the cardo polymer is 30 / 70 to 70 / 30.
[0019] When the resin composition of the present invention is used for forming a pattern of partition walls (A-1) described below, it is preferable that the resin composition of the present invention has negative photosensitivity. In order to impart negative photosensitivity, the resin composition of the present invention preferably contains a photoradical generator. By containing the photoradical generator, partition walls having a highly precise pattern shape can be formed.
[0020] The photoradical generator may be any compound that decomposes and / or reacts upon irradiation with light (including ultraviolet light and electron beams) to generate radicals.

[0034] By including a repeating unit derived from an alkoxysilane compound containing an organic group having an aromatic ring represented by general formula (1) or (2), the Tg of the polysiloxane can be increased, and the tackless properties after pre-baking can be improved.
[0035] Of all repeating units in the polysiloxane, it is preferable that the repeating units represented by general formula (1) or (2) account for 20 to 80 mol %.

[0038] Furthermore, since the polysiloxane contains a repeating unit derived from an alkoxysilane compound containing an organic group having a photoradical polymerizable group represented by general formula (3), a crosslinking reaction proceeds in the exposed areas due to the radicals generated from the photoradical generator, thereby increasing the degree of cure in the exposed areas.
[0039] Of all the repeating units in the polysiloxane, it is preferable that the repeating units represented by general formula (3) account for 10 to 80 mol %. By containing 10 mol % or more of the repeating units represented by general formula (3), radical crosslinking between polysiloxanes in the film can be efficiently promoted, thereby improving the degree of hardening of the film. The content of the repeating units represented by general formula (3) is more preferably 12 mol % or more, and even more preferably 15 mol % or more. On the other hand, by containing 80 mol % or less of the repeating units represented by general formula (3), excessive radical crosslinking of the polysiloxane can be suppressed, and the crack resistance of the partition wall can be improved.

Examples of other light-shielding pigments include red pigments, blue pigments, purple pigments, green pigments, and yellow pigments. Two or more of these pigments may be contained.
[0086] During the pattern formation of the partition walls (A-1) described below, the organometallic compound decomposes and aggregates to form black or yellow particles in the exposure step and / or heating step, thereby improving the light-blocking properties (OD value) of the partition walls (A-1) described below. Because the OD value is low before exposure and increases after pattern formation, the exposure light can be sufficiently transmitted to the bottom in the exposure step to photocure or photodecompose the partition walls (A-1). If a pattern is formed using a resin composition containing a large amount of a light-blocking pigment in advance in order to form partition walls (A-1) with a high OD value, photocuring at the bottom tends to be insufficient. As a result, the resulting partition walls (A-1) tend to have an inverted tapered shape. When a pattern is formed using the resin composition of the present invention containing the aforementioned organometallic compound, photocuring is sufficient all the way to the bottom, making it easy to achieve a taper angle within the preferred range described below.

[0089] On the other hand, when an organometallic compound containing platinum such as bis(acetylacetonato)platinum or an organometallic compound containing palladium such as bis(acetylacetonato)palladium is used, the compound decomposes and aggregates during the exposure step and / or heating step to produce palladium oxide, resulting in blackening. Among these, silver neodecanoate and bis(acetylacetonato)palladium are preferred from the viewpoint of further improving the OD value.

Among these, from the viewpoint of coatability, it is preferable to combine diacetone alcohol as a solvent having a boiling point of more than 150° C. and not more than 250° C. under atmospheric pressure with propylene glycol monomethyl ether as a solvent having a boiling point of 150° C. or less.
[0102] The content of the solvent can be set arbitrarily depending on the application method, etc. For example, when forming a film by spin coating, the content of the solvent in the resin composition is generally 50% by weight or more and 95% by weight or less.
[0103] The resin composition of the present invention can be produced, for example, by mixing the above-mentioned photoradical generator, polysiloxane, (meth)acrylic polymer and / or cardo polymer, and, if necessary, other components. Next, the light-shielding film of the present invention will be described. The light-shielding film of the present invention is obtained by curing the resin composition of the present invention described above. The light-shielding film of the present invention can be suitably used as a light-shielding pattern in an OGS-type touch panel, such as a decorative pattern for a cover substrate, in addition to the partition wall (A-1) described below. The film thickness of the light-shielding film is preferably 10 μm or more. Next, the method for producing the light-shielding film of the present invention will be described with reference to examples. The method for producing the light-shielding film of the present invention preferably includes a film-forming step of applying the resin composition of the present invention onto a base substrate and drying the composition to obtain a dried film, an exposure step of patternwise exposing the obtained dried film, a development step of dissolving and removing a portion of the exposed dried film that is soluble in a developer, and a heating step of heating the developed dried film to cure it.
[0104] Examples of the method for applying the resin composition in the film-forming step include slit coating and spin coating. Examples of the drying device include a hot air oven and a hot plate. The drying time is preferably 80 to 120°C, and the drying time is preferably 1 to 15 minutes. The exposure step is a step of photocuring a necessary portion of the dry film by exposure or photodecomposing an unnecessary portion of the dry film to make any portion of the dry film soluble in a developer. In the exposure step, exposure may be performed through a photomask having predetermined openings, or any desired pattern may be directly drawn using laser light or the like without using a photomask. The exposure device may be, for example, a proximity exposure device. The actinic rays irradiated in the exposure step are preferably ultraviolet rays. The light source may be, for example, a high-pressure mercury lamp, an ultra-high-pressure mercury lamp, or a halogen lamp, with an ultra-high-pressure mercury lamp being preferred. The exposure conditions can be appropriately selected depending on the thickness of the dried film to be exposed. Generally, the exposure intensity is 1 to 100 mW / cm. 2 Using an ultra-high pressure mercury lamp with an output of 1 to 10,000 mJ / cm 2 It is preferable to expose the film with an exposure amount of 1000 ppm or more.
[0105] The development step is a step in which developer-soluble portions of the dried film after exposure are dissolved and removed with the developer to obtain a dried film patterned in any pattern shape (hereinafter referred to as a pre-heating pattern) in which only developer-insoluble portions remain. Examples of the pattern shape include a lattice shape, a stripe shape, and a hole shape. Examples of the development method include a dipping method, a spray method, and a brush method.
[0106] The developer can be selected from a solvent capable of dissolving unnecessary portions of the dried film after exposure, and an aqueous solution containing water as the main component is preferred. For example, when the resin composition contains a polymer having a carboxyl group, an alkaline aqueous solution is preferred. Examples of alkaline aqueous solutions include inorganic alkaline aqueous solutions such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, and calcium hydroxide; and organic alkaline aqueous solutions such as tetramethylammonium hydroxide. Among these, an aqueous potassium hydroxide solution or an aqueous tetramethylammonium hydroxide solution is preferred from the viewpoint of improving resolution. Furthermore, a surfactant may be added to the developer from the viewpoint of improving resolution. The development temperature is preferably 20 to 50°C to facilitate process control. The heating step is a step of heat-curing the pre-heated pattern formed in the development step. Examples of heating devices include a hot plate and an oven. The heating temperature is preferably 250°C or less from the viewpoint of suppressing cracking in the heated film. The heating time is preferably 15 minutes to 2 hours. When the resin composition of the present invention contains the aforementioned organometallic compound, the heating temperature is preferably 150°C or higher from the viewpoint of further improving the OD value.
[0107] Next, the partition-equipped substrate of the present invention will be described. The partition-equipped substrate of the present invention has partitions (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "partitions (A-1)") patterned (A-1) on a base substrate. The base substrate functions as a support for the partition-equipped substrate. When the partitions have pixels containing a color-converting luminescent material described below, the partitions have the function of suppressing color mixing of light between adjacent pixels.
[0108] In the partition-formed substrate of the present invention, the partitions (A-1) preferably have a reflectance per 10 μm of thickness at a wavelength of 550 nm of 10% to 60% and an OD value per 10 μm of thickness at a wavelength of 450 nm of 1.0 to 3.0. By setting the reflectance to 10% or more and the OD value to 3.0 or less, the brightness of the display device can be improved by utilizing the reflection on the side surface of the partitions (A-1). On the other hand, by setting the reflectance at a wavelength of 550 nm to 60% or less and the OD value at a wavelength of 450 nm to 1.0 or more, light transmitted through the partitions (A-1) can be suppressed, thereby suppressing color mixing of light between adjacent pixels.
[0109] 1 shows a cross-sectional view of one embodiment of the substrate with partition walls of the present invention, which has partition walls formed in a pattern. 2 is formed on a base substrate 1 .
[0110] <Base substrate> Examples of the base substrate include a glass plate, a resin plate, and a resin film. The glass plate is preferably made of alkali-free glass. The resin plate and the resin film are preferably made of polyester, (meth)acrylic polymer, transparent polyimide, polyethersulfone, and the like. The thickness of the glass plate and the resin plate is preferably 1 mm or less, and more preferably 0.8 mm or less. The thickness of the resin film is preferably 100 μm or less.
[0111] <Bulkhead (A-1)> The partition walls (A-1) preferably have a reflectance of 10% to 60% per 10 μm thickness at a wavelength of 550 nm and an OD value of 1.0 to 3.0 per 10 μm thickness at a wavelength of 450 nm. Here, the thickness of the partition walls (A-1) refers to the height and / or width of the partition walls (A-1). The height of the partition walls (A-1) refers to the length of the partition walls (A-1) in a direction perpendicular to the base substrate (height direction). In the case of the substrate with partition walls shown in FIG. 1, the height of the partition walls 2 is represented by the symbol H. Furthermore, the width of the partition walls (A-1) refers to the length of the partition walls (A-1) in a direction parallel to the base substrate. In the case of the substrate with partition walls shown in FIG. 1, the width of the partition walls 2 is represented by the symbol L. In this specification, "height" may also be referred to as "thickness."
[0112] In the present invention, it is believed that the reflectance at the side surface of the partition wall contributes to improving the brightness of the display device, and the light-blocking property contributes to suppressing color mixing. On the other hand, since the reflectance and OD value per thickness are believed to be the same regardless of the height or width, the present invention focuses on the reflectance and OD value per thickness of the partition wall. As described below, the thickness (height) of the partition wall (A-1) is preferably 0.5 to 100 μm, and the width is preferably 1 to 100 μm. Therefore, in the present invention, 10 μm was selected as a representative thickness of the partition wall (A-1), and the reflectance and OD value per 10 μm thickness were focused on. If the reflectance per 10 μm thickness of the partition wall (A-1) at a wavelength of 550 nm is less than 10%, visible light reflection at the side surface of the partition wall is reduced, resulting in insufficient brightness of the display device. The reflectance per 10 μm thickness at a wavelength of 550 nm is preferably 10% or more, more preferably 20% or more, and even more preferably 30% or more.
[0113] The OD value per 10 μm of thickness of the partition wall (A-1) at a wavelength of 450 nm is preferably 1.0 or more, more preferably 1.5 or more, and even more preferably 2.0 or more. The higher the OD value per 10 μm of thickness at a wavelength of 450 nm, the greater the light-blocking properties of the partition wall side surface, thereby preventing color mixing between adjacent pixels and improving the contrast of the display device. If the OD value per 10 μm of thickness of the partition wall (A-1) at a wavelength of 450 nm is less than 1.0, blue excitation light leaks to adjacent pixels, causing light emission within the pixels when the partition wall contains a color-converting luminescent material (B) described below, resulting in color mixing.
[0114] The reflectance per 10 μm of the partition walls (A-1) at a wavelength of 550 nm can be measured from the top surface of the 10 μm-thick partition walls (A-1) using a spectrophotometer (e.g., a CM-2600d manufactured by Konica Minolta, Inc.) in SCI mode. However, if an area sufficient for measurement cannot be secured or a 10 μm-thick measurement sample cannot be obtained, and the composition of the partition walls (A-1) is known, a 10 μm-thick solid film with the same composition as the partition walls (A-1) can be prepared and the reflectance of the solid film can be measured in the same manner as for the partition walls (A-1) to determine the reflectance per 10 μm of the thickness. For example, a solid film can be prepared using the same material as the partition walls (A-1) to a thickness of 10 μm under the same processing conditions as for the formation of the partition walls (A-1), except that no patterning is performed, and the reflectance of the resulting solid film can be measured from the top surface in the same manner.
[0115] The OD value per 10 μm thickness of the partition walls (A-1) at a wavelength of 450 nm can be calculated by measuring the intensity of incident light and transmitted light from the top surface of the 10 μm thick partition walls (A-1) using an optical densitometer (for example, U-4100 manufactured by Hitachi High-Tech Science) and using the following formula (1): However, if an area sufficient for measurement cannot be secured or a 10 μm thick measurement sample cannot be obtained and the composition of the partition walls (A-1) is known, the OD value per 10 μm thickness may be determined by preparing a 10 μm thick solid film with the same composition as the partition walls (A-1) and measuring the OD value of the solid film in place of the partition walls (A-1) in the same manner as in the reflectance measurement. OD value = log10(I0 / I) (1) I0: Incident light intensity I: transmitted light intensity.
[0116] The reflectance and OD value can be adjusted to fall within the above ranges by, for example, making the partition walls (A-1) have a preferred composition as described below.
[0117] The taper angle of the partition wall (A-1) is preferably 45° to 110°. The taper angle of the partition wall (A-1) refers to the angle between the side edge and the bottom edge of the partition wall cross section. In the case of the partition wall-equipped substrate shown in FIG. 1, the taper angle of the partition wall 2 is represented by the symbol θ. By setting the taper angle to 45° or more, the difference in width between the top and bottom of the partition wall (A-1) is reduced, and the width of the partition wall (A-1) can be easily formed within the preferred range described below. The taper angle is more preferably 70° or more. On the other hand, by setting the taper angle to 110° or less, ink breakage can be suppressed when forming pixels containing the color-converting luminescent material (B) described below by inkjet coating, thereby improving inkjet coating properties. Here, ink breakage refers to the phenomenon in which ink overcomes the partition wall and mixes into adjacent pixel portions. The taper angle is more preferably 95° or less. The taper angle of the partition wall (A-1) can be determined by observing an arbitrary cross section of the partition wall (A-1) using an optical microscope (FE-SEM (e.g., S-4800 manufactured by Hitachi, Ltd.)) at an acceleration voltage of 3.0 kV and a magnification of 2,500 times, and measuring the angle between the side edge and the bottom edge of the cross section of the partition wall (A-1).
[0118] Note that, examples of means for setting the taper angle of the partition walls (A-1) within the above range include making the partition walls (A-1) have a preferred composition described below, and forming the partition walls (A-1) using the above-mentioned resin composition of the present invention.
[0119] When the partition-attached substrate has pixels containing the color-converting luminescent material (B) described below, the thickness of the partition wall (A-1) is preferably larger than the thickness of the pixels. Specifically, the thickness of the partition wall (A-1) is preferably 0.5 μm or more, more preferably 10 μm or more. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of more efficiently extracting light emitted from the bottom of the pixels, the thickness of the partition wall (A-1) is preferably 100 μm or less, more preferably 50 μm or less. Furthermore, the width of the partition wall (A-1) is preferably sufficient to further improve brightness by utilizing light reflection on the side surface of the partition wall and to further suppress color mixing of light in adjacent pixels due to light leakage. Specifically, the width of the partition wall is preferably 1 μm or more, more preferably 5 μm or more. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of securing a large light-emitting region of the pixel and further improving brightness, the width of the partition wall (A-1) is preferably 100 μm or less, more preferably 50 μm or less.
[0120] The partition (A-1) has a repeating pattern of a predetermined number of pixels according to the screen size of the image display device. The number of pixels of the image display device can be, for example, 4000 horizontally and 2000 vertically. The number of pixels affects the resolution (fineness) of the displayed image. Therefore, it is necessary to form a number of pixels according to the required image resolution and the screen size of the image display device, and it is preferable to determine the pattern formation dimensions of the partition according to this.
[0121] The partition walls (A-1) preferably contain a resin, a white pigment, and a light-shielding pigment. The resin has the function of improving the crack resistance and light fastness of the partition walls. The white pigment has the function of further improving the reflectance of the partition walls. The light-shielding pigment has the function of adjusting the OD value and suppressing color mixing of light in adjacent pixels.
[0122] The resin, white pigment, and light-blocking pigment are as described above as materials constituting the resin composition. From the viewpoint of improving light-blocking properties, the light-blocking pigment preferably contains at least one pigment selected from black pigment, red pigment, blue pigment, purple pigment, and yellow pigment. Among these, from the viewpoint of suppressing color mixing of light in adjacent pixels, it is preferable to contain a black pigment and / or a yellow pigment. The black pigment is as described above as a material constituting the resin composition. Examples of yellow pigments include organic yellow pigments such as pigment yellow (hereinafter abbreviated as PY) PY137, PY138, PY139, PY150, PY166, PY168, and PY185, and inorganic yellow pigments such as metal fine particles such as nanosilver particles and nanogold particles; metal oxides; metal composite oxides; metal sulfides; metal nitrides; metal oxynitrides; and metal carbides. Among these, from the viewpoint of suppressing color mixing of light in adjacent pixels, it is preferable that the light-shielding pigment contains at least one pigment selected from titanium nitride, zirconium nitride, carbon black, a mixed pigment of a red pigment and a blue pigment in a weight ratio of 20 / 80 to 80 / 20, and particles of at least one metal oxide or metal selected from the group consisting of palladium oxide, platinum oxide, gold oxide, silver oxide, palladium, platinum, gold, and silver.
[0123] The partition walls (A-1) preferably further contain a hindered amine compound. By containing a hindered amine compound, the weather resistance of the partition walls can be improved. The partition walls (A-1) are as described above as materials constituting the resin composition. The hindered amine compound may be immobilized to the resin by reaction of a photopolymerizable group in the molecule. The content of the hindered amine compound in the partition walls (A-1) is preferably 0.005% by weight or more, more preferably 0.008% by weight or more, from the viewpoint of further improving weather resistance, while the content of the hindered amine compound in the partition walls (A-1) is preferably 5.0% by weight or less, more preferably 3.0% by weight or less, from the viewpoint of improving the surface hardening property of the partition walls. The partition wall (A-1) preferably further contains a liquid-repellent compound.

The liquid-repellent compound is as described above as a material constituting the resin composition.
[0124] The surface contact angle of the partition walls (A-1) with propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate is preferably 10° or more, more preferably 20° or more, and even more preferably 40° or more, from the viewpoints of improving inkjet coating properties and facilitating separate application of the color-converting luminescent material. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of improving adhesion between the partition walls and the base substrate, the surface contact angle of the partition walls (A-1) is preferably 70° or less, more preferably 60° or less. Here, the surface contact angle of the partition walls (A-1) can be measured in accordance with the wettability test method for substrate glass surfaces specified in JIS R3257 (established on April 20, 1999) for the upper part of the partition walls. Incidentally, examples of methods for adjusting the surface contact angle of the partition walls (A-1) to the above range include a method using the aforementioned liquid-repellent compound.
[0125] The photosensitive paste method is preferred as a method for forming a pattern of partition walls (A-1) on a base substrate because it is easy to adjust the pattern shape. A preferred method for forming a pattern of partition walls using the photosensitive paste method includes, for example, a coating step of applying the above-mentioned resin composition to a base substrate and drying it to obtain a dried film, an exposure step of pattern-exposing the resulting dried film according to the desired pattern shape, a development step of dissolving and removing the developer-soluble portion of the exposed dried film, and a heating step of curing the developed partition walls. The resin composition preferably has negative photosensitivity. The pattern exposure may be performed through a photomask having predetermined openings, or any desired pattern may be directly drawn using laser light or the like without using a photomask. When the partition-wall-attached substrate has color filters and / or light-shielding partition walls (A-2) described below, the partition walls (A-1) can be pattern-formed on the color filters and / or light-shielding partition walls (A-2) in the same manner. Each step is as described above in the method for producing a light-shielding film.
[0126] The partition-equipped substrate of the present invention preferably further comprises pixels (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "pixels (B)") containing a color-converting luminescent material (B) arranged and separated by the partitions (A-1). The pixels (B) have the function of converting at least a part of the wavelength range of incident light and emitting output light in a wavelength range different from that of the incident light, thereby enabling color display.

Patterned partitions 2 are provided on a base substrate 1, and pixels 3 are arranged in areas separated by the partitions 2. The color conversion material preferably contains a phosphor selected from inorganic and organic phosphors.
[0128] The partition-equipped substrate of the present invention can be used as a display device, for example, by combining a backlight that emits blue light with a liquid crystal formed on a TFT and pixels (B). In this case, the region corresponding to the red pixel preferably contains a red phosphor that is excited by blue excitation light to emit red fluorescence. Similarly, the region corresponding to the green pixel preferably contains a green phosphor that is excited by blue excitation light to emit green fluorescence.

Examples of such inorganic phosphors include YAG phosphors, TAG phosphors, sialon phosphors, Mn 4+ Examples of such phosphors include activated fluoride complex phosphors and inorganic semiconductors known as quantum dots. Among these, quantum dots are preferred. Quantum dots have a smaller average particle size than other phosphors, and therefore can smooth the surface of the pixel (B) and suppress light scattering on the surface, thereby further improving the light extraction efficiency and brightness.
[0130] Examples of quantum dot materials include semiconductors of Group II-IV, Group III-V, Group IV-VI, and Group IV. Examples of inorganic semiconductors include Si, Ge, Sn, Se, Te, B, C (including diamond), P, BN, BP, BAs, AlN, AlP, AlAs, AlSb, GaN, GaP, GaAs, GaSb, InN, InP, InAs, InSb, ZnO, ZnS, ZnSe, ZnTe, CdS, CdSe, and CdSe. Two or more of these may be used.

Phosphors that emit red fluorescence include pyrromethene derivatives having a basic skeleton represented by the following structural formula (11), and phosphors that emit green fluorescence include pyrromethene derivatives having a basic skeleton represented by the following structural formula (12). Other examples include perylene-based derivatives, porphyrin-based derivatives, oxazine-based derivatives, and pyrazine-based derivatives that emit red or green fluorescence depending on the selection of substituents. Two or more of these may be contained. Among these, pyrromethene derivatives are preferred due to their high quantum yield. Pyrromethene derivatives can be obtained, for example, by the method described in JP 2011-241160 A.

From the viewpoint of improving color characteristics, the thickness of the pixels (B) is preferably 0.5 μm or more, and more preferably 1 μm or more. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of thinning the display device and curved surface processability, the thickness of the pixels (B) is preferably 30 μm or less, and more preferably 20 μm or less. The size of each pixel (B) is generally about 20 to 200 μm. The pixels (B) are preferably arranged so as to be separated by partition walls (A-1). By providing partition walls between the pixels, it is possible to further suppress the diffusion and color mixing of emitted light. The pixel (B) may be formed, for example, by filling a coating liquid containing a color-converting luminescent material (hereinafter referred to as a color-converting luminescent material coating liquid) into the spaces separated by the partition walls (A-1). The color-converting luminescent material coating liquid may further contain a resin and a solvent.
[0134] Examples of methods for filling the color-converting luminescent material coating liquid include photolithography and inkjet coating. From the viewpoint of easily applying different types of color-converting luminescent materials to each pixel, inkjet coating is preferred.

Patterned partition walls 2 and light-shielding partition walls 4 are formed on a base substrate 1, and pixels 3 are arranged in areas separated by the partition walls 2 and the light-shielding partition walls 4.
[0137] The light-shielding partition wall (A-2) has an OD value of 0.5 or more per 1.0 μm of thickness. Here, the thickness of the light-shielding partition wall (A-2) is preferably 0.5 to 10 μm, as described below. In the present invention, 1.0 μm was selected as a representative value of the thickness of the light-shielding partition wall (A-2), and attention was focused on the OD value per 1.0 μm of thickness. By setting the OD value per 1.0 μm of thickness to 0.5 or more, the light-shielding property can be further improved, and a clearer image with higher contrast can be obtained. On the other hand, the OD value per 1.0 μm of thickness is preferably 4.0 or less, which can improve pattern processability. The OD value of the light-shielding partition wall (A-2) can be measured in the same manner as the OD value of the partition wall (A-1) described above.
[0138] The thickness of the light-shielding partition wall (A-2) is preferably 0.5 μm or more, more preferably 1.0 μm or more, from the viewpoint of improving light-shielding properties.

In addition, the width of the light-shielding partition wall (A-2) is preferably about the same as that of the above-mentioned partition wall (A-1).
[0139] The light-shielding partition walls (A-2) preferably contain a resin and a light-shielding pigment. The resin has the function of improving the crack resistance and light resistance of the partition walls. The light-shielding pigment has the function of absorbing incident light and reducing emitted light. The resin and the light-shielding pigment can be the same materials as those described above as materials constituting the resin composition.
[0140] A preferred method for patterning the light-shielding partition wall (A-2) on the base substrate is, for example, to form a pattern by a photosensitive paste method using a photosensitive material described in JP-A-2015-1654, similar to the above-mentioned partition wall (A-1).
[0141] Furthermore, the partition-wall-equipped substrate of the present invention preferably further comprises a color filter (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "color filter") having a thickness of 1 to 5 μm between the base substrate and the pixel (B). The color filter has the function of transmitting visible light in a specific wavelength range and changing the transmitted light to a desired hue, thereby improving the color purity of the display device. By making the color filter thickness 1 μm or more, the color purity can be further improved. On the other hand, by making the thickness 5 μm or less, the brightness can be further improved.

On a base substrate 1, color filters 5 separated by patterned light-shielding partitions 4 are provided, and partitions 2 and pixels 3 are provided thereon.
[0145] The partition-formed substrate of the present invention preferably further comprises a low refractive index layer (C) having a refractive index of 1.20 to 1.35 at a wavelength of 550 nm (hereinafter, sometimes referred to as "low refractive index layer (C)") above or below the pixel (B). By comprising the low refractive index layer (C), the light extraction efficiency can be further improved, and the brightness of the display device can be further improved.
[0146] 6 shows a cross-sectional view of one embodiment of the substrate with partition walls of the present invention having a low refractive index layer. Patterned partition walls 2 and pixels 3 are formed on a base substrate 1, and a low refractive index layer 6 is further formed on these.
[0147] In a display device, from the viewpoint of appropriately suppressing reflection of backlight light and efficiently allowing light to enter pixels (B), the refractive index of the low refractive index layer (C) is preferably 1.20 or more, more preferably 1.23 or more. On the other hand, from the viewpoint of improving brightness, the refractive index of the low refractive index layer (C) is preferably 1.35 or less, more preferably 1.30 or less. Here, the refractive index of the low refractive index layer (C) can be measured by irradiating the cured film surface with light having a wavelength of 550 nm from a direction perpendicular to the film surface under atmospheric pressure and at 20°C using a prism coupler.
[0148] The low refractive index layer (C) can be formed, for example, using the low refractive index layer-forming material obtained in Preparation Example 6 described below, as in Examples 72 to 74. The thickness of the low refractive index layer (C) is preferably 0.1 μm or more, more preferably 0.5 μm or more, from the viewpoint of covering the steps of the pixels (B) and suppressing the occurrence of defects. On the other hand, the thickness of the low refractive index layer (C) is preferably 20 μm or less, more preferably 10 μm or less, from the viewpoint of reducing stress that may cause cracks in the low refractive index layer (C).
[0149] The partition-formed substrate of the present invention preferably further has an inorganic protective layer I having a thickness of 50 to 1,000 nm on the low refractive index layer (C). The presence of the inorganic protective layer I makes it difficult for moisture in the atmosphere to reach the low refractive index layer (C), thereby suppressing fluctuations in the refractive index of the low refractive index layer (C) and suppressing brightness deterioration.
[0150] 7 and 8 show cross-sectional views of one embodiment of the substrate with partition walls of the present invention, which has a low refractive index layer and an inorganic protective layer (I). Patterned partition walls 2 and pixels 3 are formed on a base substrate 1, and a low refractive index layer 6 and an inorganic protective layer (I) 7 are further formed above or below these.
[0151] The partition-formed substrate of the present invention preferably has the low refractive index layer (C) between the pixel (B) and the color filter, and further preferably has an inorganic protective layer (I) having a thickness of 50 to 1,000 nm on the low refractive index layer (C). By having the low refractive index layer (C) between the pixel (B) and the color filter, the light extraction effect of emitted light is improved, and the brightness of the display is improved.
[0152] 9 shows a cross-sectional view of one embodiment of the substrate with partition walls of the present invention, which has the low refractive index layer and inorganic protective layer (I) between the pixel (B) and the color filter.

[0153] The partition-formed substrate of the present invention preferably further comprises an inorganic protective layer (II) having a thickness of 50 to 1,000 nm between the pixels (B) and the low refractive index layer (C). The presence of the inorganic protective layer (II) makes it difficult for the raw materials forming the pixels (B) to move from the pixels (B) to the low refractive index layer, thereby suppressing fluctuations in the refractive index of the low refractive index layer (C) and reducing brightness degradation.
[0154] 10 shows a cross-sectional view of one embodiment of the substrate with partition walls of the present invention, which has a low refractive index layer and an inorganic protective layer (II). Patterned partition walls 2 and pixels 3 are formed on a base substrate 1, and an inorganic protective layer (II) 8 and a low refractive index layer 6 are further formed on these.
[0155] Furthermore, the partition-equipped substrate of the present invention preferably further comprises an inorganic protective layer (III) and / or a yellow organic protective layer having a thickness of 50 to 1,000 nm between the color filter and the pixel (B). The inorganic protective layer (III) makes it difficult for raw materials for forming the color filter to reach the pixel (B) containing the color-converting luminescent material from the color filter, thereby suppressing deterioration in the luminance of the pixel (B) containing the color-converting luminescent material. Furthermore, the yellow organic protective layer cuts out blue leakage light that was not fully converted by the pixel (B) containing the color-converting luminescent material, thereby improving color reproducibility.
[0156] 11 shows a cross-sectional view of one embodiment of the substrate with partition walls of the present invention, which has color filters and an inorganic protective layer (III) and / or a yellow organic protective layer.

[0157] Furthermore, the partition-equipped substrate of the present invention preferably further comprises an inorganic protective layer (IV) and / or a yellow organic protective layer having a thickness of 50 to 1,000 nm on the base substrate. The inorganic protective layer (IV) and / or the yellow organic protective layer acts as a refractive index adjusting layer, allowing for more efficient extraction of light emitted from the pixel (B) and further improving the brightness of the display device. Furthermore, the yellow organic protective layer cuts out blue leakage light that was not fully converted by the pixel (B) containing the color-converting luminescent material, thereby improving color reproducibility.
[0158] 12 shows a cross-sectional view of one embodiment of the substrate with partition walls of the present invention, which has an inorganic protective layer (IV) and / or a yellow organic protective layer. The substrate has an inorganic protective layer (IV) and / or a yellow organic protective layer 10 on a base substrate 1, and patterned partition walls 2 and pixels 3 on top of these.
[0159] Examples of materials constituting the inorganic protective layers (I) to (IV) include metal oxides such as silicon oxide, indium tin oxide, and gallium zinc oxide; and metal nitrides such as silicon nitride. Among these, silicon nitride or silicon oxide is more preferred because of its low water vapor permeability and high permeability. The thickness of the inorganic protective layers (I) to (IV) is preferably 50 nm or more, more preferably 100 nm or more, from the viewpoint of sufficiently suppressing the permeation of substances such as water vapor. On the other hand, the thickness of the inorganic protective layers (I) to (IV) is preferably 800 nm or less, more preferably 500 nm or less, from the viewpoint of suppressing a decrease in transmittance.
[0160] The yellow organic protective layer can be obtained, for example, by patterning a resin composition containing a yellow pigment and a resin. The yellow pigment and resin can be the same materials as those described above for forming the partition wall (A-1). A preferred method for patterning the yellow organic protective layer is to form a pattern by a photosensitive paste method, as in the case of the partition wall (A-1).
[0161] As shown in FIG. 7, when the yellow organic protective layer 8 is formed on the color filter 7, the yellow organic protective layer 8 may serve as an overcoat layer that flattens each pixel of the color filter.
[0162] The substrate with partitions of the present invention can also be used in display devices using mini or micro LEDs, in which a large number of LEDs corresponding to each pixel are arranged on the substrate and separated by partitions formed on the substrate. Each pixel can be turned on / off by turning on / off the mini or micro LED, and no liquid crystal is required. In other words, the substrate with partitions of the present invention can be used not only as partitions separating each pixel, but also as partitions separating mini or micro LEDs in a backlight.
[0163] For example, the substrate with partition walls of the present invention preferably further comprises, on the base substrate, a light source selected from organic EL cells, mini LED cells, and micro LED cells. By separating the light source selected from organic EL cells, mini LED cells, and micro LED cells with partition walls, color mixing between pixels can be prevented, and the purity of the display color can be improved.
[0164] 13 shows a cross-sectional view of one embodiment of the substrate with partitions of the present invention, which has a light-emitting source selected from organic EL cells, mini LED cells, and micro LED cells. The light-emitting source 11 selected from organic EL cells, mini LED cells, and micro LED cells is located between partitions 2 patterned on a base substrate 1. Furthermore, the substrate with partitions of the present invention preferably further has a pixel (B) on the light-emitting source selected from organic EL cells, mini LED cells, and micro LED cells.

[0166] Next, the display device of the present invention will be described. The display device of the present invention has the partition-equipped substrate and a light source. The light source is preferably a light source selected from a liquid crystal cell, an organic EL cell, a mini LED cell, and a micro LED cell. Due to their excellent light-emitting properties, organic EL cells are more preferable as the light source. A mini LED cell refers to a cell in which many LEDs with length and width of approximately 100 μm to 10 mm are arranged. A micro LED cell refers to a cell in which many LEDs with length and width of less than 100 μm are arranged.
[0167] The manufacturing method of the display device of the present invention will be described using an example of a display device having a partition-equipped substrate and an organic EL cell of the present invention. A photosensitive polyimide resin is applied to a glass substrate, and an insulating film with an opening is formed using photolithography. Aluminum is sputtered onto the polyimide resin, and then patterned using photolithography to form a back electrode layer made of aluminum in the openings where there was no insulating film. Next, tris(8-quinolinolato)aluminum (hereinafter abbreviated as Alq3) is vacuum-deposited on the polyimide resin as an electron transport layer, followed by a white-light-emitting layer formed by doping Alq3 with dicyanomethylenepyran, quinacridone, and 4,4'-bis(2,2-diphenylvinyl)biphenyl. Next, N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(α-naphthyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine is vacuum-deposited as a hole transport layer. Finally, an ITO film is formed as a transparent electrode by sputtering to produce an organic EL cell with a white light-emitting layer. A display device can be produced by bonding the above-mentioned partition-equipped substrate and the obtained organic EL cell facing each other with a sealant. [Example]

[0262] The evaluation methods used in each of the examples and comparative examples are shown below. <Glass transition temperature of (meth)acrylic polymers and cardo-based polymers> The (meth)acrylic polymer and / or cardo polymer in the resin composition of the present invention used in the examples and comparative examples was calculated from a thermogram obtained using a DSC apparatus (Rigaku's "Thermo Plus DSC8230"). DSC measurements were performed under nitrogen at a heating rate of 20°C / min. The glass transition temperature was calculated as the temperature corresponding to the intersection of the baseline and the tangent at the inflection point in the DSC heating curve of the thermogram. The inflection point was taken as the temperature corresponding to the peak in the DDSC (DSC derivative) curve of the thermogram. The DDSC curve was also referred to as appropriate to confirm the DSC baseline. The glass transition temperature (Tg) was evaluated as "A" when it was 60°C or higher and "B" when it was lower than 60°C.
[0263] <Refractive index of low refractive index layer> The low refractive index layer-forming material used in each example was applied to a silicon wafer using a spinner and dried at 90°C for 2 minutes using a hot plate (product name SCW-636, manufactured by Dainippon Screen Mfg. Co., Ltd.). The coating was then heated in air at 90°C for 30 minutes using an oven (IHPS-222, manufactured by Espec Corporation) to produce a cured film. A prism coupler (PC-2000, manufactured by Metricon Co., Ltd.) was used to irradiate the cured film surface with light at a wavelength of 550 nm from the perpendicular direction at atmospheric pressure and 20°C, and the refractive index was measured, rounded to two decimal places.
[0264] <Tackless dried film> Using a spin coater (product name 1H-360S, manufactured by Mikasa Co., Ltd.), the partition wall resin composition used in each example and comparative example was spin coated onto a 10 cm square alkali-free glass substrate so that the film would have a dry thickness of 10 μm. The coating was then dried at 100°C for 3 minutes using a hot plate (product name SCW-636, manufactured by Dainippon Screen Mfg. Co., Ltd.) to produce a dried film with a thickness of 10 μm. A 10 cm square alkali-free glass substrate acting as a mask was placed on top of the dried film for 1 minute, and the tackiness of the dried film was evaluated according to the following criteria. The less adhesion of the glass substrate, the higher the tackiness and the easier it was to handle. A: When the dried film was placed on the glass substrate, it did not stick to the glass substrate, and after the glass substrate was separated, no stains originating from the barrier rib material were left on the glass substrate. B: When the dried film was placed on the glass substrate, it stuck together, but the glass substrate was easily separated. There was a small amount of dirt on the glass substrate from the barrier rib material. C: When the dried film was placed on the glass substrate, it adhered and stuck together. The glass substrate could not be easily separated. After the glass substrate was separated, dirt from the barrier rib material was found on the glass substrate.
[0265] <Crack resistance> The partition wall-forming resin compositions used in each Example and Comparative Example were spin-coated to thicknesses of 10 μm, 15 μm, 20 μm, and 25 μm after heating. Subsequent processes were performed under the same conditions as in each Example and Comparative Example, except that the entire substrate was exposed without a photomask during exposure. Plain films were then produced on glass substrates. The resulting plain films were used as models for the partition walls of the partition-wall-equipped substrates obtained in each Example and Comparative Example. The glass substrates bearing the plain films were visually inspected and evaluated for cracks. If even one crack was observed, it was determined that the film had no crack resistance at that thickness. For example, if no cracks were observed at a film thickness of 15 μm but cracks were observed at a film thickness of 20 μm, the crack-resistant film thickness was determined to be "≧15 μm." Furthermore, if no cracks were observed at 25 μm, the crack-resistant film thickness was determined to be "≧25 μm," and if cracks were observed at 10 μm, the crack-resistant film thickness was determined to be "<10 μm."
[0266] <Wrinkle resistance> The partition wall-forming resin composition used in each Example and Comparative Example was spin-coated to a film thickness of 10 μm, 15 μm, 20 μm, or 25 μm after heating. Subsequent processes were performed under the same conditions as in each Example and Comparative Example, except that the entire substrate was exposed without a photomask during exposure. Plain films were then produced on glass substrates. The resulting plain films were used as models for the partition walls of the partition-wall-equipped substrates obtained in each Example and Comparative Example. The glass substrates bearing the plain films were visually observed and evaluated for the presence or absence of wrinkles. If wrinkles were observed, the film was deemed to have no wrinkle resistance at that film thickness. For example, if there were no wrinkles at a film thickness of 15 μm but wrinkles were present at a film thickness of 20 μm, the wrinkle resistance was assessed as "≧15 μm." Furthermore, if there were no wrinkles even at 25 μm, the wrinkle resistance was assessed as "≧25 μm," and if there were wrinkles even at 10 μm, the wrinkle resistance was assessed as "<10 μm."
[0267] <1% weight loss temperature> The partition-forming resin composition used in each example and comparative example was spin-coated onto a Si wafer to a film thickness of 10 μm after heating. Subsequent processes were performed under the same conditions as in each example and comparative example, except that the entire substrate was exposed without a photomask during exposure, to form a solid film on a glass substrate. Next, a portion of the solid film formed on the Si wafer was carefully scraped off to prevent impurities from being mixed in, and approximately 100 mg of the film was placed in an aluminum cell. Using a thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA-50, manufactured by Shimadzu Corporation), the sample was held at 150°C for 30 minutes in a nitrogen atmosphere, then heated to 400°C at a heating rate of 10°C / min, and the weight was measured. The temperature at which the weight lost 1% by weight from the initial weight was defined as the 1% weight loss temperature. A higher 1% weight loss temperature indicates higher heat resistance.
[0268] <resolution> Using a spin coater (product name 1H-360S, manufactured by Mikasa Co., Ltd.), the resin composition for partition walls used in each of the Examples and Comparative Examples was spin coated onto a 10 cm square alkali-free glass substrate so that the film thickness after heating would be 10 μm, and then using a hot plate (product name SCW-636, manufactured by Dainippon Screen Mfg. Co., Ltd.), the coating was dried at a temperature of 100°C for 3 minutes to produce a dried film with a film thickness of 10 μm.
[0269] The prepared dried film was exposed to light at a dose of 300 mJ / cm through a mask having line and space patterns with widths of 100 μm, 80 μm, 60 μm, 50 μm, 40 μm, 30 μm, and 20 μm using a parallel light mask aligner (trade name PLA-501F, manufactured by Canon Inc.) and an ultra-high pressure mercury lamp as a light source. 2 The film was exposed to i-line radiation with a gap of 100 μm, and then shower-developed with a 0.045 wt % potassium hydroxide aqueous solution for 100 seconds using an automatic developing apparatus (Takizawa Sangyo Co., Ltd., "AD-2000 (trade name)"), followed by rinsing with water for 30 seconds.
[0270] Using a microscope adjusted to a magnification of 100 times, the developed pattern was observed under magnification, and the narrowest line width among the patterns where no residue was observed in the unexposed area was taken as the resolution. However, when there was also residue in the unexposed area near the 100-μm-wide pattern, it was designated as ">100 μm".
[0271] <Reflectance> For the partition-forming resin compositions used in each example and comparative example, except that the whole was exposed without using a photomask during exposure, they were processed under the same conditions as in each example and comparative example, and a solid film with a height of 10 μm was formed on a glass substrate. Using the obtained solid film as a model of the partition of the partitioned substrate obtained in each example and comparative example, for the glass substrate having the solid film, a spectrophotometer (trade name CM-2600d, manufactured by Konica Minolta Co., Ltd.) was used to measure the reflectance at wavelengths of 350 to 750 nm in the SCI mode from the solid film side, and the value at 550 nm was compared as a representative value. However, when cracks or wrinkles occurred in the solid film, accurate values could not be obtained due to cracks or the like, so the reflectance measurement was not performed.
[0272] <OD value> As a model of the partition of the partitioned substrate obtained in each example and comparative example, in the same manner as the evaluation of reflectance, a solid film with a height of 10 μm was formed on a glass substrate. For the glass substrate having the obtained solid film, an optical densitometer (U-4100 manufactured by Hitachi High-Technologies Corporation) was used to measure the intensities of incident light and transmitted light, and the OD value at wavelengths of 300 to 800 nm was calculated by the above-mentioned formula (1), and the value at 450 nm was compared as a representative value.
[0273] Also, for Example 70, as a model of the light-shielding partition (A-2), a solid film was similarly formed on a glass substrate. For the glass substrate having the obtained solid film, an optical densitometer (U-4100 manufactured by Hitachi High-Technologies Corporation) was used to measure the intensities of incident light and transmitted light, and it was calculated by the above-mentioned formula (1).
[0274] <Taper angle> In each example and comparative example, an arbitrary cross section of the substrate with partition walls before pixel formation was observed using an optical microscope (FE-SEM (S-4800); manufactured by Hitachi, Ltd.) at an accelerating voltage of 3.0 kV, and the taper angle was measured.
[0275] <Line width increase> A 10 cm square alkali-free glass substrate (AGC Technoglass Co., Ltd., thickness 0.7 mm) was used as a base substrate, and the partition wall resin composition used in each Example and Comparative Example was spin-coated thereon, and dried for 3 minutes at a temperature of 100°C using a hot plate (product name SCW-636, Dainippon Screen Mfg. Co., Ltd.) to produce a dried film. The produced dried film was irradiated with a parallel light mask aligner (product name PLA-501F, Canon Inc.) using an ultra-high pressure mercury lamp as a light source through a photomask (design: partition wall width 20 μm, opening short side 80 μm, opening long side 280 μm) at an exposure dose of 100 mJ / cm. 2 and 500 mJ / cm 2 The film was exposed to g-, h-, and i-rays (exposure dose is an i-ray equivalent value). It was then developed for 100 seconds by shower development using an automatic developing apparatus (Takizawa Sangyo Co., Ltd., "AD-2000 (trade name)") with a 0.045 wt % potassium hydroxide aqueous solution, followed by rinsing with water for 30 seconds. It was then heated in air at 230°C for 30 minutes using an oven (trade name IHPS-222, Espec Corp.), forming 10 μm-high partition walls in a grid pattern on the glass substrate.
[0276] The barrier rib pattern was observed under magnification using a microscope adjusted to 100 times, the barrier rib line width was measured, and the exposure dose was 100 mJ / cm 2 and 500 mJ / cm 2 The line widths at the time of development were compared. The line width increase was evaluated according to the following criteria. Note that no evaluation was made when the pattern peeled off during development or when residues were generated making measurement difficult. A: Exposure dose 500 mJ / cm 2 The line width of the partition wall processed with the exposure dose of 100 mJ / cm 2 The difference is within +5.0 μm compared to the line width of the barrier ribs processed in . B: Exposure dose 500 mJ / cm2 The line width of the partition wall processed with the exposure dose of 100 mJ / cm 2 The line width is +5.0 μm to +10 μm compared to the line width of the barrier ribs processed in the above. C: Exposure dose 500 mJ / cm 2 The line width of the partition wall processed with the exposure dose of 100 mJ / cm 2 The line width is +10 μm or more compared to the line width of the barrier ribs processed in the above.
[0277] <Surface contact angle> As in the case of reflectance evaluation, a 10 μm-high solid film was formed on a glass substrate as a model of the partition walls in the partition-wall-equipped substrates obtained in each Example and Comparative Example. The surface contact angle of the resulting solid film was measured at 25°C in air using a DM-700 (manufactured by Kyowa Interface Science Co., Ltd.) and a 22G Teflon-coated needle for contact angle meter (manufactured by Kyowa Interface Science Co., Ltd.) in accordance with the wettability test method for glass substrate surfaces specified in JIS R3257 (established April 20, 1999). However, propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate was used instead of water, and the contact angle between the solid film surface and propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate was measured.
[0278] <Inkjet coating properties> In the substrates with partition walls obtained in each Example and Comparative Example before pixel formation, PGMEA was used as ink to inkjet coat the pixel areas surrounded by the lattice-shaped partition walls using an inkjet coater (InkjetLabo, manufactured by Cluster Technology Co., Ltd.). 160 pL of PGMEA was applied per lattice pattern, and the presence or absence of breakage (a phenomenon in which ink overcomes the partition walls and mixes into adjacent pixel areas) was observed, and the inkjet coatability was evaluated according to the following criteria. Fewer breakages indicate higher liquid repellency and superior inkjet coatability. A: The ink did not overflow from within the pixels. B: In some areas, ink overflowed from within the pixels onto the top surface of the partition wall. C: Ink overflowed from within the pixels onto the top surface of the partition walls over the entire surface.
[0279] <height> For the partition-attached substrates obtained in each example and comparative example, the height of the structures before and after pixel (B) formation was measured using a SURFCOM stylus film thickness measurement device, and the difference was calculated to measure the height of the pixel (B). For Examples 72 to 74, the film thickness of the low-refractive-index layer (C) was also measured. For Examples 71, 74-75, and 77, the film thickness of the color filter was also measured. For Examples 70 and 74, the thickness (height) of the light-shielding partition was also measured. For Examples 77 and 78, the thickness (height) of the yellow organic protective layer was also measured. Furthermore, for Examples 73 to 76, a polishing device such as a cross-section polisher was used to expose a cross section perpendicular to the base substrate, and the cross section was then magnified and observed with a scanning electron microscope or transmission electron microscope to measure the height of the inorganic protective layer.
[0280] <Brightness> A surface light-emitting device equipped with a commercially available LED backlight (peak wavelength 465 nm) was used as a light source, and the partition-equipped substrates obtained in each example and comparative example were placed so that the pixel section was on the light source side. A current of 30 mA was passed through this surface light-emitting device to light up the LED elements, and the luminance (unit: cd / m ) based on the CIE 1931 standard was measured using a spectroradiometer (CS-1000, manufactured by Konica Minolta). 2 ) was measured and used as the initial luminance. However, the luminance was evaluated as a relative value with the initial luminance of Example 67 set as the standard 100. Furthermore, after the LED element was lit for 48 hours at room temperature (23°C), the luminance was measured in the same manner and the change in luminance over time was evaluated. However, the luminance was evaluated as a relative value with the initial luminance of Example 67 set as the standard 100.
[0281] <Color characteristics> The partition-equipped substrates obtained in each Example and Comparative Example were placed on a commercially available white reflector so that the pixels were positioned on the white reflector side. Using a spectrophotometer (CM-2600d, manufactured by Konica Minolta, Inc., measurement diameter φ8 mm), light was irradiated from the base substrate side of the partition-equipped substrate, and the spectrum including the specular reflection light was measured.
[0282] The color gamut defined by the color standard BT.2020, which can reproduce nearly all colors in nature, is defined as the three primary colors red, green, and blue on the spectral locus shown in a chromaticity diagram, with the wavelengths of red, green, and blue corresponding to 630 nm, 532 nm, and 467 nm, respectively.The emitted color of the pixel was evaluated using the reflectance (R) of the obtained reflection spectrum at three wavelengths: 470 nm, 530 nm, and 630 nm, according to the following criteria. A:R 530 / (R 630 +R 530 +R 470 ) ≧ 0.55 B:R 530 / (R 630 +R 530 +R 470 )<0.55.
[0283] <Display characteristics> The display characteristics of the display devices fabricated by combining the substrates with partition walls obtained in each of the Examples and Comparative Examples with the organic EL elements were evaluated based on the following criteria. A: The green display is very vivid and has excellent contrast. B: Although the colors appear somewhat unnatural, the display device is problem-free.
[0284] <Color mixture> In the substrates with partition walls obtained in each Example and Comparative Example before pixel formation, color-converting luminescent material composition (CL-2) was applied by inkjet printing to a part of the pixel area surrounded by the lattice-shaped partition walls, and dried at 100°C for 30 minutes to form pixels with a thickness of 5.0 μm. Thereafter, color-converting luminescent material composition (CL-3) was applied by inkjet printing to an area of the pixel area surrounded by the lattice-shaped partition walls adjacent to the area where color-converting luminescent material composition (CL-2) was applied, and dried at 100°C for 30 minutes to form pixels with a thickness of 5.0 μm.
[0285] Separately, a blue organic EL cell having the same width as the pixel portion surrounded by the grid-like partition walls was fabricated, and the aforementioned substrate with partition walls and the blue organic EL cell were bonded together with a sealant, facing each other, to obtain a display device with the configuration shown in Figure 15. Among the blue organic EL cells 11 in Figure 15, only the blue organic EL cell bonded directly below pixel 3 (CL-2) formed with color-converting luminescent material composition (CL-2) was turned on. The absorbance intensity A (630 nm) at a wavelength of 630 nm was measured for pixel 3 (CL-3) formed with color-converting luminescent material composition (CL-3) using an LVmicro-V microspectrophotometer (manufactured by Lambda Vision Corporation). The smaller the value of absorbance intensity A (630 nm), the less likely color mixing occurred. Color mixing was evaluated according to the following criteria. A:A(630nm)<0.01 B: 0.01≦A(630nm)≦0.5 C:0.5 <A(630nm)。
