[0012] (Resin Composition) A resin composition according to a first aspect of the present invention (hereinafter also simply referred to as the "first resin composition") comprises a resin A which is a polyimide and contains a structure represented by formula (A-1) in an amount of 0.20 to 5 mmol / g relative to the mass of resin A, a polymerization initiator, and a polymerizable compound. A resin composition according to a second aspect of the present invention (hereinafter also simply referred to as the "second resin composition") comprises a resin B which contains a repeating unit represented by formula (1-1), a resin C which contains at least one of repeating units represented by formula (2-1) and formula (3-1), a polymerization initiator, and a polymerizable compound. Hereinafter, resin A and resin B will be collectively referred to as the "specific resin".
[0013] The resin composition of the present invention is preferably used to form a photosensitive film that is subjected to exposure and development, and is preferably used to form a film that is subjected to exposure and development using a developer containing an organic solvent. The resin composition of the present invention can be used, for example, to form an insulating film for a semiconductor device, an interlayer insulating film for a redistribution layer, a stress buffer film, etc., and is preferably used to form an interlayer insulating film for a redistribution layer. In particular, use of the resin composition of the present invention to form an interlayer insulating film for a redistribution layer is also a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The resin composition of the present invention is also preferably used to form a photosensitive film that is subjected to negative development. In the present invention, negative development refers to development in which unexposed areas are removed by development in exposure and development, and positive development refers to development in which exposed areas are removed by development. The exposure method, developer, and development method may, for example, be the exposure method described in the exposure step and the developer and development method described in the development step in the description of the method for producing a cured product described below.
[0014] The resin composition of the present invention provides a cured product with a low dielectric loss tangent. The mechanism by which this effect is achieved is unknown, but is presumed to be as follows.
[0015] Resin A, which is a polyimide in a first embodiment of the resin composition of the present invention, contains a group represented by formula (A-1) containing a maleimide group in an amount of 0.20 to 5 mmol / g relative to the mass of Resin A. Resin A in the first embodiment of the resin composition of the present invention contains a repeating unit represented by formula (1-1). Conventionally, cured products with excellent physical properties, such as chemical resistance, have been obtained by using a resin composition containing a resin having a polymerizable group such as a (meth)acryloxy group, a polymerizable compound, and a polymerization initiator as a polyimide-containing resin composition. Here, for example, the carbonyl group moiety contained in the (meth)acryloxy group is freely rotatable, which may result in a high degree of freedom of structural movement in the resulting cured product, resulting in an increased dielectric loss tangent. In contrast, maleimide groups are thought to have a reduced dielectric loss tangent because the carbonyl group is fixed within the ring structure, making them less prone to free rotation and more likely to be fixed in structure. Furthermore, since maleimide groups react with various structures in the composition, such as through addition reactions with phenolic hydroxy groups, in addition to radical polymerization, it is believed that crosslinks are formed between the resin and various components or various sites in the resin in the resulting cured product. That is, it is believed that a strong crosslinked network is formed in the cured product. As a result, it is believed that effects such as improved curability and chemical resistance upon exposure of the resulting cured product can also be obtained. In addition, since polymerization in maleimide groups is less susceptible to depolymerization due to heat, etc., compared to polymerization in (meth)acrylates, it is believed that the chemical resistance and adhesion of the cured product are less likely to decrease, for example, when exposed to high temperature or high humidity conditions, or even after a long period of time has passed. Furthermore, when a film made of the resin composition of the present invention is exposed to light and developed to form a pattern, the presence of maleimide groups in the resin is believed to improve the removability of non-image areas with a developer containing an organic solvent, and also improve resolution.
[0016] However, Patent Document 1 does not describe a resin composition containing a specific resin.

Using the measured peak intensities P1 and P2, the imidization rate of the specific resin can be calculated based on the following formula: Imidization rate (%) = (peak intensity P1 / peak intensity P2) x 100

[0083] The method for applying the resin composition to the substrate is not particularly limited as long as it can be a method that results in a film thickness of 10 μm, and spin coating can be used. If it is difficult to form a film with a thickness of 10 μm by spin coating, a known method may be appropriately selected from dip coating, air knife coating, curtain coating, wire bar coating, gravure coating, extrusion coating, spray coating, slit coating, inkjet method, etc.
[0084] Drying is preferably carried out until the amount of solvent in the film is 0.1% by mass or less. Drying conditions are not particularly limited, but drying by heating can be performed. Furthermore, if sufficient drying is difficult to achieve by heating alone, further reduction in pressure may be performed. Drying can be carried out in the atmosphere. However, if the resin composition contains components that are easily denatured by oxygen, drying can also be carried out under inert gas such as nitrogen or under vacuum. Drying means are not particularly limited, but examples include a hot plate. However, if the above-mentioned reduction in pressure or inert gas replacement is required, an oven with a reduction in pressure function or an oven with a gas replacement function can also be used. When drying by heating, the heating temperature can be, for example, 110°C. However, if drying at 110°C is difficult, the drying temperature may be appropriately changed between 70°C and 130°C, preferably between 90°C and 120°C, depending on the type of solvent contained in the resin composition. When drying by heating, the drying time (time exposed to the above heating temperature) can be, for example, 5 minutes. However, if drying within 5 minutes is difficult, the drying time may be appropriately changed between 30 seconds and 20 minutes, preferably between 1 minute and 10 minutes, depending on the type of solvent contained in the resin composition, etc. When drying is performed by heating, the temperature rise rate during heating is not particularly limited and can be, for example, 5°C / min. If drying at the above temperature rise rate is difficult, the temperature rise rate may be appropriately changed between 1 and 12°C / min, or between 2 and 10°C / min, depending on the type of solvent contained in the resin composition, etc.
[0085] The dissolution rate of a film in cyclopentanone can be calculated by immersing a silicon wafer on which a film has been formed in cyclopentanone for 15 seconds and measuring the film thickness before and after immersion using an ellipsometer. The film is immersed in cyclopentanone without being subjected to any heating other than the drying process. The amount of cyclopentanone used for immersion is preferably 30 times the volume of the film. The temperature of cyclopentanone, the film, and the silicon wafer during immersion is 23°C. If the film is completely dissolved or if the film thickness does not change at all, the immersion time can be appropriately changed to calculate the dissolution rate.

The upper limit of the transmittance is not particularly limited and may be 100%. The cured product can be obtained, for example, by applying the resin composition of the present invention to a substrate such as a silicon wafer and then drying it, and then transmitting a light transmittance of 500 mJ / cm 2 The film can be obtained by exposing the entire surface to i-rays at an exposure energy of 1000 kJ / min, then heating at 230°C for 180 minutes in a nitrogen atmosphere at a temperature increase rate of 10°C / min. The transmittance can be measured using a spectrophotometer. The substrate, the method of applying the composition to the substrate, the drying method, etc. can be performed by the same methods as those used to measure the dissolution rate described above, and preferred embodiments are also the same. The heating means used to heat the film at 230°C for 180 minutes can be the same as the drying means used to measure the dissolution rate described above.

[0262] <Exposure Step> The film may be subjected to an exposure step in which the film is selectively exposed to light. The method for producing a cured product may include an exposure step in which the film formed in the film formation step is selectively exposed to light. Selective exposure means that a portion of the film is exposed to light. Furthermore, selective exposure forms exposed regions (exposed portions) and unexposed regions (unexposed portions) in the film. The exposure dose is not particularly limited as long as it can cure the resin composition of the present invention, but for example, it is 50 to 10,000 mJ / cm2 in terms of exposure energy at a wavelength of 365 nm. 2 is preferred, and 200 to 8,000 mJ / cm 2 is more preferred.
[0263] The exposure wavelength can be appropriately determined within the range of 190 to 1,000 nm, and is preferably 240 to 550 nm.

That is, the method for producing a cured product of the present invention may include a development step in which the film exposed in the exposure step is developed using a developer to form a pattern. By carrying out development, one of the exposed and unexposed parts of the film is removed to form a pattern. Here, development in which the unexposed parts of the film are removed in the development step is called negative development, and development in which the exposed parts of the film are removed in the development step is called positive development.

[0275] In the developing step, after the treatment with the developer, the pattern may be further washed (rinsed) with a rinse liquid. Alternatively, a method may be employed in which a rinse liquid is supplied before the developer in contact with the pattern is completely dried.
[0276] [Rinse Liquid] When the developer is an alkaline aqueous solution, for example, water can be used as the rinse liquid. When the developer is a developer containing an organic solvent, for example, a solvent different from the solvent contained in the developer (for example, water, an organic solvent different from the organic solvent contained in the developer) can be used as the rinse liquid.
[0277] When the rinse solution contains an organic solvent, examples of the organic solvent include the same organic solvents as those exemplified when the developer contains an organic solvent.

[0280] The rinse liquid may further contain other components, such as known surfactants and known defoaming agents.
[0281] [Method of Supplying Rinse Liquid] The method of supplying the rinse liquid is not particularly limited as long as it can form a desired pattern, and examples thereof include a method of immersing the substrate in the rinse liquid, a method of supplying the rinse liquid to the substrate by puddling, a method of supplying the rinse liquid to the substrate by showering, and a method of continuously supplying the rinse liquid onto the substrate by means of a straight nozzle or the like.

The type of nozzle is not particularly limited, and examples include a straight nozzle, shower nozzle, spray nozzle, etc. That is, the rinsing step is preferably a step of supplying or continuously supplying the rinse liquid to the exposed film using a straight nozzle, and more preferably a step of supplying the rinse liquid using a spray nozzle. The method of supplying the rinse liquid in the rinsing step may include a step of continuously supplying the rinse liquid to the substrate, a step of keeping the rinse liquid substantially stationary on the substrate, a step of vibrating the rinse liquid on the substrate by ultrasonic waves or the like, and a combination of these steps.

[0283] <Heating Step> The pattern obtained by the development step (or the pattern after rinsing, if a rinsing step is performed) may be subjected to a heating step in which the pattern obtained by the development step is heated. That is, the method for producing a cured product of the present invention may include a heating step in which the pattern obtained by the development step is heated. Furthermore, the method for producing a cured product of the present invention may include a heating step in which a pattern obtained by another method without performing a development step, or a film obtained by a film formation step, is heated. In the heating step, a resin such as a polyimide precursor is cyclized to form a resin such as a polyimide. Furthermore, crosslinking of unreacted crosslinkable groups in the specific resin or in a crosslinking agent other than the specific resin also proceeds. The heating temperature (maximum heating temperature) in the heating step is preferably 50 to 450°C, more preferably 150 to 350°C, even more preferably 150 to 250°C, even more preferably 160 to 250°C, and particularly preferably 160 to 230°C.
[0284] The heating step is preferably a step in which the cyclization reaction of the polyimide precursor is promoted within the pattern by the action of a base or the like generated from the base generator due to heating.
[0285] The heating step is preferably carried out at a temperature increase rate of 1 to 12°C / min from the temperature at the start of heating to the maximum heating temperature. The temperature increase rate is more preferably 2 to 10°C / min, and even more preferably 3 to 10°C / min. By setting the temperature increase rate to 1°C / min or more, it is possible to prevent excessive volatilization of the acid or solvent while ensuring productivity, and by setting the temperature increase rate to 12°C / min or less, it is possible to alleviate residual stress in the cured product. In addition, in the case of an oven capable of rapid heating, it is preferable to increase the temperature from the temperature at the start of heating to the maximum heating temperature at a temperature increase rate of 1 to 8°C / sec, more preferably 2 to 7°C / sec, and even more preferably 3 to 6°C / sec.
[0286] The temperature at the start of heating is preferably 20°C to 150°C, more preferably 20°C to 130°C, and even more preferably 25°C to 120°C. The temperature at the start of heating refers to the temperature at the start of the process of heating up to the maximum heating temperature. For example, when the resin composition of the present invention is applied to a substrate and then dried, the temperature is the temperature of the film (layer) after this drying, and it is preferable to raise the temperature from, for example, a temperature 30 to 200°C lower than the boiling point of the solvent contained in the resin composition.
[0287] The heating time (heating time at the maximum heating temperature) is preferably from 5 to 360 minutes, more preferably from 10 to 300 minutes, and even more preferably from 15 to 240 minutes.
[0288] In particular, when forming a multilayer laminate, from the viewpoint of interlayer adhesion, the heating temperature is preferably 30° C. or higher, more preferably 80° C. or higher, even more preferably 100° C. or higher, and particularly preferably 120° C. or higher. The upper limit of the heating temperature is preferably 350° C. or lower, more preferably 250° C. or lower, and even more preferably 240° C. or lower.
[0289] Heating may be performed in stages. For example, the temperature may be increased from 25°C to 120°C at a rate of 3°C / min, held at 120°C for 60 minutes, increased from 120°C to 180°C at a rate of 2°C / min, and held at 180°C for 120 minutes. It is also preferable to treat the film while irradiating it with ultraviolet light, as described in U.S. Pat. No. 9,159,547. Such a pretreatment step can improve the film's properties. The pretreatment step is preferably performed for a short period of time, such as 10 seconds to 2 hours, and more preferably 15 seconds to 30 minutes. The pretreatment may be performed in two or more steps. For example, a first pretreatment step may be performed at a temperature in the range of 100 to 150°C, followed by a second pretreatment step at a temperature in the range of 150 to 200°C. Furthermore, cooling may be performed after heating. In this case, the cooling rate is preferably 1 to 5°C / min.
[0290] The heating step is preferably carried out in an atmosphere with a low oxygen concentration by flowing an inert gas such as nitrogen, helium, or argon, or by carrying out the heating step under reduced pressure, in order to prevent decomposition of the specific resin. The oxygen concentration is preferably 50 ppm (volume ratio) or less, more preferably 20 ppm (volume ratio) or less. The heating means used in the heating step is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include a hot plate, an infrared oven, an electric heating oven, a hot air oven, and an infrared oven.
[0291] <Post-development exposure step> The pattern obtained in the development step (if a rinsing step is performed, the pattern after rinsing) may be subjected to a post-development exposure step in which the pattern obtained in the development step is exposed to light, instead of or in addition to the heating step. That is, the method for producing a cured product of the present invention may include a post-development exposure step in which the pattern obtained in the development step is exposed to light. The method for producing a cured product of the present invention may include a heating step and a post-development exposure step, or may include only one of the heating step and the post-development exposure step. The post-development exposure step can promote, for example, a reaction in which cyclization of a polyimide precursor or the like progresses due to exposure of a photobase generator, or a reaction in which elimination of an acid-decomposable group progresses due to exposure of a photoacid generator. In the post-development exposure step, it is sufficient that at least a portion of the pattern obtained in the development step is exposed, but it is preferable that the entire pattern is exposed. The exposure dose in the post-development exposure step is 50 to 20,000 mJ / cm in terms of exposure energy at a wavelength to which the photosensitive compound has sensitivity. 2 is preferred, and 100 to 15,000 mJ / cm 2 The post-development exposure step can be carried out using, for example, the light source used in the exposure step described above, and it is preferable to use broadband light.
[0292] <Metal Layer Forming Step> The pattern obtained by the developing step (preferably subjected to at least one of a heating step and a post-development exposure step) may be subjected to a metal layer forming step of forming a metal layer on the pattern. That is, the method for producing a cured product of the present invention preferably includes a metal layer forming step of forming a metal layer on the pattern obtained by the developing step (preferably subjected to at least one of a heating step and a post-development exposure step).
[0293] The metal layer is not particularly limited, and existing metal species can be used. Examples include copper, aluminum, nickel, vanadium, titanium, chromium, cobalt, gold, tungsten, tin, silver, and alloys containing these metals. Copper and aluminum are more preferred, and copper is even more preferred.
[0294] The method for forming the metal layer is not particularly limited, and existing methods can be applied. For example, the methods described in JP 2007-157879 A, JP 2001-521288 A, JP 2004-214501 A, JP 2004-101850 A, U.S. Patent No. 7,888,181 B2, and U.S. Patent No. 9,177,926 B2 can be used. Examples of suitable methods include photolithography, PVD (physical vapor deposition), CVD (chemical vapor deposition), lift-off, electroplating, electroless plating, etching, printing, and combinations of these. More specifically, examples include patterning methods that combine sputtering, photolithography, and etching, and patterning methods that combine photolithography and electroplating. Preferred plating methods include electroplating using a copper sulfate or copper cyanide plating solution.
[0295] The thickness of the metal layer is preferably 0.01 to 50 μm, more preferably 1 to 10 μm, at the thickest part.
[0296] <Applications> Fields to which the method for producing a cured product of the present invention or the cured product can be applied include insulating films for electronic devices, interlayer insulating films for rewiring layers, stress buffer films, etc. Other examples include sealing films, substrate materials (base films, coverlays, and interlayer insulating films for flexible printed circuit boards), and the etching of insulating films for packaging applications such as those described above. For these applications, reference can be made to, for example, Science & Technology Co., Ltd.'s "High Performance Polyimide and Application Technology" (April 2008), edited by Masaaki Kakimoto, CMC Technical Library "Fundamentals and Development of Polyimide Materials" (November 2011), and Japan Polyimide and Aromatic Polymer Research Association's "Latest Polyimide Fundamentals and Applications" (NTS, August 2010).
[0297] The method for producing the cured product of the present invention, or the cured product of the present invention, can also be used for producing printing plates such as offset printing plates or screen printing plates, for etching molded parts, for producing protective lacquers and dielectric layers in electronics, especially microelectronics, etc.
[0298] (Laminate and method for manufacturing laminate) The laminate of the present invention refers to a structure having a plurality of layers each made of the cured product of the present invention. The laminate is a laminate including two or more layers each made of the cured product, and may be a laminate including three or more layers. At least one of the two or more layers each made of the cured product contained in the laminate is a layer made of the cured product of the present invention, and from the viewpoint of suppressing shrinkage of the cured product or deformation of the cured product associated with the shrinkage, it is also preferable that all of the layers made of the cured product contained in the laminate are layers made of the cured product of the present invention.
[0299] That is, the method for producing a laminate of the present invention preferably includes the method for producing a cured product of the present invention, and more preferably includes repeating the method for producing a cured product of the present invention multiple times.
[0300] The laminate of the present invention preferably includes two or more layers made of a cured product and a metal layer between any of the layers made of the cured product. The metal layer is preferably formed by the metal layer-forming step. That is, the method for producing a laminate of the present invention preferably further includes a metal layer-forming step of forming a metal layer on a layer made of a cured product between multiple cured product production processes. A preferred embodiment of the metal layer-forming step is as described above. Examples of the laminate include a laminate having at least a layer structure in which three layers are stacked in this order: a layer made of a first cured product, a metal layer, and a layer made of a second cured product. It is preferred that both the layer made of the first cured product and the layer made of the second cured product are layers made of the cured product of the present invention. The resin composition of the present invention used to form the layer made of the first cured product and the resin composition of the present invention used to form the layer made of the second cured product may have the same composition or different compositions. The metal layer in the laminate of the present invention is preferably used as metal wiring, such as a rewiring layer.
[0301] <Lamination Step> The method for producing a laminate of the present invention preferably includes a lamination step. The lamination step is a series of steps including performing at least one of (a) a film formation step (layer formation step), (b) an exposure step, (c) a development step, and (d) a heating step and a post-development exposure step again on the surface of the pattern (resin layer) or the metal layer in this order. However, at least one of (a) the film formation step and (d) the heating step and the post-development exposure step may be repeated. Furthermore, after at least one of (d) the heating step and the post-development exposure step, (e) a metal layer formation step may be included. It goes without saying that the lamination step may further include the above-mentioned drying step or the like as appropriate.
[0302] When a further lamination step is performed after the lamination step, a surface activation treatment step may be further performed after the exposure step, the heating step, or the metal layer forming step. An example of the surface activation treatment is a plasma treatment. Details of the surface activation treatment will be described later.
[0303] The lamination step is preferably performed 2 to 20 times, more preferably 2 to 9 times. For example, a structure having 2 to 20 resin layers, such as resin layer / metal layer / resin layer / metal layer / resin layer / metal layer, is preferred, and a structure having 2 to 9 resin layers is even more preferred. Each of the layers may be the same or different in composition, shape, film thickness, etc.
[0304] In the present invention, a particularly preferred embodiment is one in which, after providing a metal layer, a cured product (resin layer) of the resin composition of the present invention is further formed so as to cover the metal layer.Specific examples include an embodiment in which the steps of (a) film formation step, (b) exposure step, (c) development step, (d) at least one of a heating step and a post-development exposure step, and (e) metal layer formation step are repeated in this order, or an embodiment in which the steps of (a) film formation step, (d) at least one of a heating step and a post-development exposure step, and (e) metal layer formation step are repeated in this order.By alternately performing the lamination step of laminating the resin composition layer (resin layer) of the present invention and the metal layer formation step, the resin composition layer (resin layer) of the present invention and the metal layer can be alternately laminated.
[0305] (Surface Activation Treatment Step) The method for producing a laminate of the present invention preferably includes a surface activation treatment step in which at least a portion of the metal layer and the resin composition layer are surface-activated. The surface activation treatment step is usually performed after the metal layer formation step, but after the development step (preferably after at least one of the heating step and the post-development exposure step), the resin composition layer may be surface-activated before the metal layer formation step. The surface activation treatment may be performed only on at least a portion of the metal layer, or only on at least a portion of the resin composition layer after exposure, or may be performed on at least a portion of both the metal layer and the resin composition layer after exposure. The surface activation treatment is preferably performed on at least a portion of the metal layer, and it is preferable to perform the surface activation treatment on part or all of the region of the metal layer on which the resin composition layer is to be formed. In this way, by performing the surface activation treatment on the surface of the metal layer, adhesion with the resin composition layer (film) provided on the surface can be improved. The surface activation treatment is also preferably performed on part or all of the resin composition layer (resin layer) after exposure. In this way, by performing the surface activation treatment on the surface of the resin composition layer, adhesion with the metal layer or resin layer provided on the surface that has been surface-activated can be improved. In particular, when negative development is performed, when the resin composition layer is cured, it is less susceptible to damage due to surface treatment and adhesion is likely to be improved. The surface activation treatment can be carried out, for example, by the method described in paragraph 0415 of International Publication No. 2021 / 112189. The contents of this specification are incorporated herein.

The materials, amounts used, ratios, processing details, processing procedures, etc. shown in the following examples can be changed as appropriate without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of the present invention is not limited to the specific examples shown below. Unless otherwise specified, "parts" and "%" are based on mass.

[0309] [Synthesis of M-2 to M-4] Compounds represented by the following formulae (M-2), (M-3) and (M-4) were synthesized in the same manner as in the synthesis of 6-maleimidohexanoic acid chloride (M-1).
[0310] Synthesis Example SP-1: Synthesis of Polyimide (SP-1) 30.0 g (57.64 mmol) of 4,4'-(4,4'-isopropylidenediphenoxy)diphthalic anhydride was dissolved in 130 g of N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP). Subsequently, 3.20 g (12.39 mmol) of 2,2-bis(3-amino-4-hydroxyphenyl)propane, 7.89 g (37.18 mmol) of m-tolidine, and 2.78 g (11.53 mmol) of hexadecylamine were added while washing with 50 g of NMP. The mixture was stirred at 20°C to 50°C for 30 minutes, and then 10 g of toluene was added. The mixture was reacted at 200°C for 4 hours under a nitrogen flow and then cooled to 25°C. Next, a THF solution of the 6-maleimidohexanoic acid chloride (M-1) synthesized above (M-1 content: 37.5 mmol), 6.13 g (77.5 mmol) of pyridine, and 0.10 g of 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine 1-oxyl free radical were added and reacted at 25°C for 2 hours, then the temperature was raised to 45°C and stirred for an additional 10 hours. The reaction solution was then cooled to 25°C, diluted with 200 g of tetrahydrofuran, and the reaction solution was added dropwise to a mixture of 2.0 L of methanol and 0.5 L of water. After stirring for 15 minutes, the polyimide resin was filtered. Next, the resin was reslurried in 1 L of water and filtered, then reslurried again in 1 L of methanol and filtered, and dried under reduced pressure at 40°C for 10 hours. Next, the dried resin was dissolved in 300 g of tetrahydrofuran, and 40 g of ion exchange resin (MB-1: manufactured by Organo Corporation) was added thereto. The mixture was stirred for 4 hours. The ion exchange resin was removed by filtration, and then the polyimide resin was precipitated in 2 L of methanol and stirred for 15 minutes.

The resin composition layer and copper substrate were then left in a chamber at a temperature of 100°C and a humidity of 100% RH for 100 hours. Cross-sectional SEM (scanning electron microscope) measurements were performed to evaluate the void area ratio between the copper substrate and the resin layer. The void area ratio was calculated using the following formula: Void area ratio (%) = (area of voids observed by SEM measurement) / (total area of resin layer) x 100 Evaluation was performed using the obtained void area ratio value according to the following evaluation criteria. The smaller the void area ratio, the better the PCT (wet heat) resistance of the cured film, and the less likely voids are to occur between the metal layer and the cured product even after a long period of time has passed. A: The void area ratio was 0.2% or less. B: The void area ratio was more than 0.2% and 0.5% or less. C: The void area ratio was more than 0.5% and 1% or less. D: The void area ratio exceeded 1%.
[0341] The above results show that the cured products obtained from the resin composition according to the present invention have a low dielectric loss tangent. In comparison, the cured products obtained from the compositions according to Comparative Examples 1 and 2, in which the content of the structure represented by formula (A-1) relative to the mass of resin A is less than 0.2 mmol / g and which do not contain the repeating unit represented by formula (1-1), have a high dielectric loss tangent.
[0342] Example 101 The resin composition used in Example 1 was applied in the form of a layer by spin coating to the surface of the thin copper layer of a resin substrate having a thin copper layer formed on its surface. The layer was then dried at 100°C for 4 minutes to form a 20 μm-thick resin composition layer, which was then exposed using a stepper (Nikon Corporation, NSR1505 i6). The exposure was performed at a wavelength of 365 nm through a mask (a binary mask with a 1:1 line-and-space pattern and a line width of 10 μm). After exposure, the substrate was heated at 100°C for 4 minutes. After the heating, the substrate was developed with cyclohexanone for 2 minutes and rinsed with PGMEA for 30 seconds to obtain a layer pattern. The substrate was then heated at a rate of 10°C / min in a nitrogen atmosphere until it reached 230°C, at which point it was maintained at 230°C for 3 hours to form an interlayer insulating film for a rewiring layer. This interlayer insulating film for a rewiring layer had excellent insulating properties. Furthermore, when semiconductor devices were manufactured using these interlayer insulating films for rewiring layers, it was confirmed that they operated without any problems.
