[0001] The present invention relates to a resin, a photosensitive composition, a cured product, a display device, an electronic component, and a method for producing the cured product.
[0002] In recent years, efforts have been made to reduce costs and increase integration by improving the efficiency of semiconductor manufacturing processes, and semiconductor devices with multilayer metal rewiring have attracted attention. Materials used for interlayer insulating layers in such multilayer metal rewiring require high electrical insulation reliability due to the miniaturization of wiring accompanying the high integration of semiconductor devices, and therefore high migration resistance is required. Furthermore, suppression of development residues during positive or negative pattern formation by photolithography is also required.
[0003] Furthermore, in organic electroluminescence (hereinafter "organic EL") displays, which are display devices, pixel division layers and thin film transistor (hereinafter "TFT") planarization layers are formed adjacent to or in the vicinity of light-emitting elements, so that improving the reliability of organic EL displays requires consideration of the configuration of the pixel division layers, etc., and the physical properties such as heat resistance of the materials used for the pixel division layers, etc. Additionally, in order to achieve high brightness and power saving in organic EL displays, excellent light-emitting characteristics that enable low-voltage driving to obtain the desired current density are required.
[0004] Known examples of display devices include a display device having a pixel dividing layer containing polyimide (see, for example, Patent Document 1) and an organic EL display in which the total content of metal elements and / or halogen elements in a cured film is within a specific range (see, for example, Patent Document 2).

[0006] However, the display devices described in Patent Documents 1 and 2 still have problems with light-emitting characteristics related to low-voltage driving, reliability of the light-emitting element, or migration resistance.

When referring to the photosensitive composition of the present invention, this description is common to the photosensitive compositions of the first and second aspects of the present invention. On the other hand, when referring to a specific aspect of the photosensitive composition, it is referred to as the photosensitive composition of the first aspect of the present invention. However, the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments, and various modifications are naturally possible within the scope of the invention, as long as the object of the invention can be achieved and the gist of the invention is not deviated from.
[0035] A hydrocarbon group or alkylene group containing a "** bond" or "** group" refers to a hydrocarbon group or alkylene group to which a "** bond" or "** group" is bonded, or at least two hydrocarbon groups or at least two alkylene groups linked by a "** bond" or "** group". A silicone structure refers to a structure having an Si-O-Si bond as the main backbone and two organic groups on the silicon atom. In other words, the silicon atom in the silicone structure is bonded to two organic groups and two oxygen atoms. A siloxane structure refers to a structure having an Si-O-Si bond as the main backbone and one organic group on the silicon atom. In other words, the silicon atom in the siloxane structure is bonded to one organic group and three oxygen atoms.
[0036] In the resin of the present invention and the binder resin (A) in the photosensitive composition of the present invention, the amine residue refers to a structure obtained by removing a nitrogen atom and a substituent on the nitrogen atom from a structure derived from an amine in the resin or a structure derived from an amine derivative. That is, the amine residue corresponds to a structure obtained by removing a nitrogen atom and a substituent on the nitrogen atom from an amine molecule or an amine derivative molecule that is a raw material for the resin. The amine residue preferably has a divalent or higher structure, i.e., a structure obtained by removing at least two nitrogen atoms and a substituent on the nitrogen atom from a structure derived from an amine in a structural unit of the resin or a structure derived from an amine derivative. It is also preferable that the amine residue has a trivalent or higher structure. Examples of such amine residues include structures obtained by removing a nitrogen atom and a substituent on the nitrogen atom from a diamine molecule, triamine molecule, diamine derivative molecule, or triamine derivative molecule that is a raw material for the resin.
[0037] In the resin of the present invention and the binder resin (A) in the photosensitive composition of the present invention, the carboxylic acid residue refers to a structure obtained by removing a carbonyl group and a substituent on the carbonyl carbon atom from a structure derived from a carboxylic acid or a carboxylic acid derivative in the resin. That is, the carboxylic acid residue corresponds to a structure obtained by removing a carbonyl group and a substituent on the carbonyl carbon atom from a carboxylic acid molecule or a carboxylic acid derivative molecule, which are raw materials for the resin. The carboxylic acid residue preferably has a divalent or higher structure, i.e., a structure obtained by removing at least two carbonyl groups and a substituent on the carbonyl carbon atom from a structure derived from a carboxylic acid or a carboxylic acid derivative in the structural unit of the resin. The carboxylic acid residue preferably has a trivalent or higher structure, and more preferably a tetravalent or higher structure. Examples of such carboxylic acid residues include structures obtained by removing a carbonyl group and a substituent on the carbonyl carbon atom from a dicarboxylic acid molecule, tricarboxylic acid molecule, tetracarboxylic acid molecule, dicarboxylic acid derivative molecule, tricarboxylic acid derivative molecule, or tetracarboxylic acid derivative molecule, which are raw materials for the resin.
[0038] <Resin> The resin of the present invention has the configuration described in [1] above. By adopting the above configuration, the resin of the present invention can provide a photosensitive composition capable of suppressing residue after development. Furthermore, it is possible to provide a photosensitive composition that has excellent light-emitting properties that allow low-voltage operation to obtain a desired current density, and that can yield a cured product suitable for use in a display device with excellent light-emitting device reliability. In addition, it is possible to provide a photosensitive composition that can yield a cured product suitable for use in an electronic component with excellent migration resistance. This is because, by incorporating the above-mentioned resins having a fluorine content below a specific value into the photosensitive composition, the content of fluorine elements, fluoride ions, or fluorine-containing anions derived from these resins is below a specific value. It is presumed that these resins locally activate protons in the photosensitive composition through interactions such as hydrogen bonding. Therefore, it is believed that the effect of promoting dissolution in the developer is effective in suppressing residue after development. Furthermore, it is presumed that the surface modification of the substrate by these components prevents residue adhesion at the openings, thereby suppressing residue after development, and that the effects of low-voltage operation of light-emitting properties and improved luminance are significant. Furthermore, by incorporating a polyimide or the like having an amine residue of a specific structure having a phenolic hydroxyl group, hydrogen bonding between the phenolic hydroxyl group and a fluorine atom is formed, which is thought to improve the stability of the above-mentioned fluorine-containing component and fluorine-containing anion in the photosensitive composition, and contribute to the successful effect of suppressing residues after development.
[0039] Furthermore, intentionally incorporating the above-mentioned resin with a fluorine content below a specific value is believed to adjust the detection intensity of these ions on the surface of the cured product to a specific value or below, thereby controlling the polarization structure and charge balance in the cured product. As a result, it is believed that suppressing ion migration and electromigration caused by metal impurities and ionic impurities that adversely affect light-emitting properties or electrical insulation will contribute to high reliability or excellent migration resistance of light-emitting elements. Furthermore, suppressing migration and aggregation of metals in electrodes or metal wiring will contribute to high reliability in display devices, electronic components, and semiconductor devices.
[0040] The resin of the present invention (Ax resin) is one or more resins selected from the group consisting of polyimide, polyimide precursor, polybenzoxazole, polybenzoxazole precursor, polyamideimide, polyamideimide precursor, and copolymers thereof (hereinafter referred to as "polyimide-based resins").

Examples of polyamideimides include resins obtained by dehydration and cyclization of polyamideimide precursors. Examples of polyamides include resins obtained by reacting dicarboxylic acid chlorides with diamines. The resin of the present invention may be a single resin, a mixture thereof, or a copolymer thereof.

It is also preferable that the resin of the present invention has two or more types of (DA1) primary amine residues.
[0042] From the viewpoint of improving the reliability and migration resistance of the light-emitting device, the cyclic structure in the (Ia) structure is preferably an aromatic structure or a fused polycyclic structure, and more preferably an aromatic structure having 6 to 15 carbon atoms or a fused polycyclic structure having 6 to 20 carbon atoms.

The fused polycyclic structure is preferably a fluorene structure, an anthracene structure, or a naphthalene structure. The phenolic hydroxyl group in the (DA1) primary amine residue may react with a structure and / or group in the resin to form a benzoxazole ring. That is, in a resin having a benzoxazole ring in its structural unit, the benzoxazole ring may have a (DA1) primary amine residue.
[0043] In the resin of the present invention, the structure (IIa) is a sulfonyl group, an alkylene group, a fused polycyclic structure, a hydrocarbon group containing an ether bond, a direct bond, an ether bond, a sulfide bond, a carbonyl group, a carboxylic acid ester bond, an amide bond, a urea bond, a urethane bond, a carbonate ester bond, a cycloalkylene group, an arylene group, a fused polycyclic heterocyclic structure, a hydrocarbon group containing a carbonyloxy group, or a hydrocarbon group containing a carbonylamide group.

[0044] <Specific Primary Amine Residue (DA1)> From the viewpoints of suppressing residues after development, achieving low-voltage driving of light-emitting properties, improving the reliability of the light-emitting device, and improving migration resistance, the primary amine residue (DA1) preferably has an amine residue satisfying the following condition (S1x) (hereinafter referred to as "specific primary amine residue (DA1)"). The amine residue (DA1) satisfying the following condition (S1x) is more preferably an amine residue further satisfying the following condition (S1y), and even more preferably an amine residue further satisfying the following condition (S1z). The resin of the present invention also preferably has two or more types of specific primary amine residues (DA1). The molecular symmetry of the amine residue (S1x) is C 1 It has an axis of symmetry and C 2 No symmetry axis (S1y) C as the molecular symmetry of the amine residue 1 It has an axis of symmetry and C 2 Axis of symmetry and C 3 (S1z) The molecular symmetry of the amine residue is C 1 It has an axis of symmetry and C 1 It has no other axis of symmetry than the axis of symmetry.
[0045] The amine residue in the primary amine residue (DA1) is as described above. The molecular symmetry of the amine residue in the above conditions (S1x) to (S1z) refers to the molecular symmetry of the amine residue when the amine residue contained in the resin of the present invention is considered as a molecule. Examples of molecular symmetry include an axis of symmetry, a plane of symmetry, a center of symmetry, and an axis of rotation. The above conditions (S1x) to (S1z) are intended to take into consideration the axis of symmetry among these molecular symmetries.
[0046] As the molecular symmetry under the above conditions (S1x) to (S1z), C x Having a symmetry axis means that when the three-dimensional structure of the molecule in question is rotated (360 / x) degrees around an arbitrary axis, the three-dimensional structure before and after the rotation is the same. Here, x represents an integer of 1 or more. In other words, the molecular symmetry is C 1 Having an axis of symmetry means that the three-dimensional structure is the same before and after a 360° rotation around an arbitrary axis.2 Having an axis of symmetry means that the three-dimensional structure is the same before and after a 180° rotation around an arbitrary axis. 3 Having a symmetry axis means that the three-dimensional structure is the same before and after a 120° rotation around an arbitrary axis. 1 The fact that there is no axis of symmetry other than the axis of symmetry means that 2 Axis of symmetry (the axis on which the three-dimensional structure is the same before and after a 180° rotation) and C 3 Symmetry axis (the axis on which the three-dimensional structure is the same before and after a 120° rotation) x It means that there is no axis of symmetry (1<x≦360).
[0047] In the above conditions (S1x) to (S1z) for the primary amine residue (DA1), when the symmetry axis of the molecular symmetry of the amine residue is taken into consideration, the three-dimensional structure of the target amine residue before rotation takes into consideration all possible conformations of the molecule. That is, in the three-dimensional structure before rotation, at least one of the possible conformations of the target amine residue as a molecule is C 2 If there is a symmetry axis, the above condition (S1x) is not satisfied, and at least one of them is C 2 Axis of symmetry or C 3 If there is a symmetry axis, the condition (S1y) above is not satisfied, and at least one of them is C x If there is an axis of symmetry (1<x≦360), the above condition (S1z) is not satisfied.

Furthermore, it is believed that the effect of suppressing residue after development promotes the surface modification action of the substrate surface by the above-mentioned fluorine element, fluoride ions, etc., resulting in a significant effect of low-voltage driving of light-emitting characteristics. In addition, it is believed that the above-mentioned fluorine element, fluoride ions, etc. promote the control of the polarization structure and charge balance in the cured product. As a result, it is believed that ion migration and electromigration are suppressed, resulting in a significant effect of improving the reliability and migration resistance of the light-emitting device.

[0145] <Photosensitive composition> The photosensitive composition of the first aspect of the present invention is a photosensitive composition containing (A) a binder resin and (C) a photosensitizer, and further containing (B) a radical polymerizable compound and / or (F) a crosslinking agent, and the (A) binder resin contains the resin of the present invention.
[0146] A photosensitive composition according to a second aspect of the present invention is a photosensitive composition comprising (A) a binder resin and (C) a photosensitizer, and further comprising (B) a radically polymerizable compound and / or (F) a crosslinking agent, wherein the (A) binder resin comprises (Ax) resin: one or more resins selected from the group consisting of polyimide, polyimide precursor, polybenzoxazole, polybenzoxazole precursor, polyamideimide, polyamideimide precursor, and copolymers thereof, the (Ax) resin has (DA1) a primary amine residue: an amine residue having a phenolic hydroxyl group, the (DA1) primary amine residue having at least two (Ia) structures: cyclic structures having a phenolic hydroxyl group, and (IIa) structure: a structure connecting at least two (Ia) structures, The (IIa) structure is a sulfonyl group, an alkylene group, a fused polycyclic structure, a hydrocarbon group containing an ether bond, a direct bond, an ether bond, a sulfide bond, a carbonyl group, a carboxylic acid ester bond, an amide bond, a urea bond, a urethane bond, a carbonate ester bond, a cycloalkylene group, an arylene group, a fused polycyclic heterocyclic structure, a hydrocarbon group containing a carbonyloxy group, or a hydrocarbon group containing a carbonylamide group, and satisfies the following condition (1a): (1a) the content of elemental fluorine in the total solid content of the photosensitive composition is 1,000 ppm by mass or less.
[0147] By adopting the above-described configuration, the photosensitive compositions of the first and second aspects of the present invention can suppress residue after development, have excellent light-emitting properties that allow low-voltage operation to obtain a desired current density, and can produce cured products suitable for use in display devices with excellent light-emitting device reliability. In addition, cured products suitable for use in electronic components with excellent migration resistance can be produced. This is because by controlling the content of compounds containing fluorine atoms in the structure or components containing fluorine atoms in the photosensitive composition to a specific value or less, the content of fluorine atoms, fluoride ions, or anions containing fluorine atoms derived from these components in these components is controlled to a specific value or less. It is believed that this causes local activation of protons in the photosensitive composition due to interactions such as hydrogen bonding between the components in the photosensitive composition. Therefore, it is believed that the effect of promoting dissolution in the developer is effective in suppressing residue after development. Furthermore, it is believed that the surface modification of the substrate by these components prevents residue adhesion at the openings, thereby suppressing residue after development, and significantly improving the light-emitting properties, lowering the voltage required for operation, and improving the luminance. Furthermore, by incorporating a polyimide or the like having an amine residue of a specific structure having a phenolic hydroxyl group, hydrogen bonding between the phenolic hydroxyl group and a fluorine atom is formed, which is thought to improve the stability of the above-mentioned fluorine-containing component and fluorine-containing anion in the photosensitive composition, and contribute to the successful effect of suppressing residues after development.
[0148] Furthermore, intentionally setting the content of the above components to a specific value or less is thought to adjust the detection intensity of these ions on the surface of the cured product, thereby controlling the polarization structure and charge balance in the cured product. As a result, it is thought that by suppressing ion migration and electromigration caused by metal impurities and ionic impurities that adversely affect light-emitting properties or electrical insulation, high reliability or excellent migration resistance of light-emitting elements is achieved. Furthermore, suppression of migration and aggregation of metals in electrodes or metal wiring is thought to contribute to high reliability in display devices, electronic components, and semiconductor devices.

[0278] In the display device of the present invention, it is preferable that the pixel division layer has a stepped shape having thick and thin portions, from the viewpoint of improving the reliability of the light-emitting element.

Therefore, by suppressing damage to the pixel division layer, the effect of suppressing a decrease in panel yield and improving the reliability of the light-emitting element is significant. Furthermore, by having the thin portions have light-blocking properties, outgassing from the pixel division layer and the films below it is suppressed, thereby significantly improving the reliability of the light-emitting element.

It is believed that by limiting the content of compounds containing fluorine atoms in the structure or components containing fluorine atoms in the photosensitive composition to a specific value or less, the substrate surface is modified by these components, resulting in significant effects of low-voltage operation of light-emitting properties and improved luminance.

A glass substrate (manufactured by Geomatec Co., Ltd.; hereinafter referred to as "ITO / Ag substrate") was prepared by sputtering a 100 nm film of APC (silver / palladium / copper = 98.07 / 0.87 / 1.06 (mass ratio)) on glass, and then sputtering a 10 nm film of ITO on top of the APC layer. The glass substrate was then irradiated with UV-O for 100 seconds using a tabletop optical surface treatment device (PL16-110; manufactured by Sen Special Light Sources Co., Ltd.). 3 The substrates were washed before use. Tempax glass substrates (AGC Technoglass) were used without pretreatment. The other substrates were used after a dehydration bake treatment by heating at 130°C for 2 minutes using a hot plate (HP-1SA; AS ONE Corporation).

Using a gel permeation chromatography (hereinafter "GPC") analyzer (Waters 2690; manufactured by Waters), lithium chloride and phosphoric acid were dissolved in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone at 0.050 mol / L as a fluidized bed. The weight average molecular weight in terms of polystyrene was measured and determined. For other resins, the weight average molecular weight in terms of polystyrene was measured at around room temperature using a GPC analyzer (HLC-8220; manufactured by Tosoh Corporation) and tetrahydrofuran or N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone as the fluidized bed in accordance with JIS K7252-3 (2008).
[0331] (2) Imide Ring Closure Rate and Benzoxazole Ring Closure Rate of Resin Regarding the imide ring closure rate, each of the above resins was dissolved in GBL to a concentration of 35% by mass to prepare a resin solution. Each of the resulting resin solutions was applied to a silicon wafer using a spin coater (1H-DX; manufactured by Mikasa Co., Ltd.) and then baked at 120 ° C for 180 seconds to produce a resin film with a thickness of 4 to 5 μm. The prepared silicon wafer with the resin film was divided into two, and one of the two was heated in a clean oven (CLH-21CD-S; manufactured by Koyo Thermo Systems Co., Ltd.) at 140 ° C for 30 minutes in a nitrogen atmosphere with an oxygen concentration of 20 ppm by mass or less, and then further heated to 320 ° C for 60 minutes to completely close the imide ring (resin film after heating). The other half was used as is without heat treatment (resin film before heating). Using an infrared spectrophotometer (FT-720; manufactured by Horiba, Ltd.), the transmission infrared absorption spectra of the resin film before and after heating were measured.

[0332] Regarding the benzoxazole ring closure rate, a resin film with a thickness of 4 to 5 μm was prepared using the same method as above. The prepared silicon wafer with the resin film was divided into two, and one half was heated at 320°C for 30 minutes using a buzzer hot plate (HPD-3000BZN; manufactured by AS ONE Corporation) to completely close the benzoxazole ring (resin film after heating). The other half was used as is without being heated (resin film before heating). Using an infrared spectrophotometer (FT-720; manufactured by HORIBA, Ltd.), the transmission infrared absorption spectra of the resin film before and after heating were measured.

[0333] (3) Molar Ratio of Polyimide Units, etc. Each of the above resins was separated by GPC fractionation before use. Even when the resins were composed of resins with different structural units, they were also separated by GPC fractionation before use. Regarding the resins in the composition, whether they contained a single resin or resins with different structural units, the composition was extracted with dichloromethane, ultracentrifuged, and then the resins were separated from the dichloromethane-insoluble matter by GPC fractionation before use. Each resin was analyzed by methods such as proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy, pyrolysis-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, and reactive pyrolysis-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. From the measurement results, the structures of the polyimide unit (imide structure), polyimide precursor unit (amidic acid structure and amic acid ester structure), polybenzoxazole unit (benzoxazole structure), polybenzoxazole precursor unit (hydroxyamide structure), and polyamideimide unit (imide structure and amide structure), as well as the copolymerization monomers that constitute them, were determined. Next, each copolymerizable monomer was prepared as a standard sample, and peaks specific to each copolymerizable monomer were confirmed by proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Next, the molar ratio of each unit in the resin to the copolymerizable monomer constituting it was calculated from the area ratio of the peaks in the proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy spectrum of each resin.

[0350]
[0351] <Preparation of Photosensitive Compositions> Compositions 1 to 110 were prepared according to the formulations listed in Tables 3-1 to 3-10. In Tables 3-1 to 3-10, the values in parentheses indicate the parts by mass of the solid content of each component. When a composition contained a pigment, a preparation not containing a pigment dispersion was first prepared, and then the pigment dispersion and the preparation were mixed to prepare the composition. A PGMEA / EL / GBL solvent (50 / 40 / 10 by mass ratio) was used to prepare the composition so that the solid content concentration of the composition was 20% by mass. The resulting composition solution was filtered through a 0.45 μm diameter filter before use. Compositions 45 to 56 were prepared in a similar manner, using a PGMEA / EDM / MBA solvent (70 / 20 / 10 by mass ratio).
[0352] Example 1 First, a method for preparing a cured film of the composition will be described. Composition 1 prepared on an ITO / Ag substrate was applied using a spin coater (MS-A100; manufactured by Mikasa Corporation), and then prebaked at 120°C for 120 seconds using a buzzer hotplate (HPD-3000BZN; manufactured by AS ONE Corporation) to prepare a prebaked film with a film thickness of approximately 1.8 μm. The prepared prebaked film was subjected to patterning exposure using a double-sided alignment single-sided exposure device (Mask Aligner PEM-6M; manufactured by Union Optical Co., Ltd.) with the i-line (wavelength 365 nm), h-line (wavelength 405 nm), and g-line (wavelength 436 nm) of an ultra-high pressure mercury lamp through a grayscale mask for sensitivity measurement (MDRM MODEL 4000-5-FS; manufactured by Opto-Line International). After exposure, the film was developed using a compact photolithography developing device (AD-1200; manufactured by Takizawa Sangyo Co., Ltd.) with a 2.38 wt% TMAH aqueous solution and rinsed with water for 30 seconds to produce a developed film. The development time was 60, 90, or 120 seconds. If a pattern could not be formed after development with the 2.38 wt% TMAH aqueous solution, an exposed film was prepared in the same manner as above, and after exposure, the film was developed with cyclopentanone and rinsed with water for 30 seconds to produce a developed film. The development time was also 60, 90, or 120 seconds. The developed patterns for all films were observed, and the optimal exposure dose (value measured with an i-line illuminometer) capable of forming a space pattern with a 20 μm dimensional width corresponding to the openings in a 20 μm line-and-space pattern was determined from these results. The optimal development time and the optimal exposure dose for that development time were determined. After exposure at the optimum exposure dose and development for the optimum development time, the pattern was thermally cured at 200°C for 60 minutes using a high-temperature inert gas oven (INH-9CD-S; manufactured by Koyo Thermo Systems Co., Ltd.) to produce a cured film with a film thickness of approximately 1.2 μm. The thermal curing conditions were as follows: in a nitrogen atmosphere with an oxygen concentration of 20 ppm by mass or less, the temperature was raised to 200°C at a heating rate of 3.5°C / min, heat treatment was carried out at 200°C for 60 minutes, and then cooling to 50°C.
[0353] The cured film was analyzed using methods such as proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, infrared spectroscopy, pyrolysis-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, reactive pyrolysis-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry to analyze the structural units of the resins and the structures of the compounds contained in the cured film. It was confirmed that the cured film of Composition 1 contained the resins and compounds in Composition 1, as well as resins and compounds having structures derived from them, as follows: (XA1x) resin: polyimide (unit represented by formula (1)); polyimide precursor (unit represented by formula (2)); polybenzoxazole (unit represented by formula (3)); polybenzoxazole precursor (unit represented by formula (4)); (XA1y) resin: phenolic resin; (XC1x) compound: carboxylic acid containing an indene structure; carboxylic acid ester containing an indene structure; sulfonic acid containing an indene structure; sulfonic acid aryl ester containing an indene structure.
[0354] <Fabrication of an Organic EL Display (Having a Pixel Dividing Layer with Thick and Thin Film Portions)> Next, the fabrication method of the organic EL display will be described. Figure 2 shows a schematic diagram of the substrate used. First, a 100-nm-thick non-transparent conductive metal layer of APC (silver / palladium / copper = 98.07 / 0.87 / 1.06 (mass ratio)) was sputtered onto a 38 x 46 mm alkali-free glass substrate 47, and then patterned by etching to form an APC layer. A 10-nm-thick amorphous ITO film was then sputtered onto the APC layer as a transparent conductive oxide layer, and then patterned by etching to form a first electrode portion 48, which serves as a reflective electrode. At this time, an auxiliary electrode portion 49 for connecting the second electrode was also formed at the same time (Figure 2 (1)). The resulting electrode-attached substrate was ultrasonically cleaned for 10 minutes using "Semicoclean" (registered trademark) 56 (manufactured by Furuuchi Chemical Co., Ltd.) and then rinsed with ultrapure water. Next, Composition 1 was applied to this substrate and prebaked in the same manner as described above. It was then exposed to patterning through a photomask with a predetermined pattern, developed, rinsed, and then heated to thermally cure. The processing conditions were the optimal exposure dose and optimal development time measured in advance. The thermal curing conditions were also the same as described above. Using the above method, a pixel division layer 50 was formed in the effective area of the substrate. The pixel division layer 50 had rectangular openings, each 70 μm wide and 70 μm long, arranged at a widthwise pitch of 175 μm and a lengthwise pitch of 175 μm, each exposing a first electrode (see (2) in Figure 2). The openings in this pixel division layer 50 ultimately become the light-emitting pixels of the organic EL display. The effective area of the substrate was 16 mm square, and the pixel division layer 50 was formed to a thickness of approximately 1.5 μm. Composition 1 was then applied to the substrate on which the pixel division layer 50 had been formed and prebaked in the same manner as described above. It was then exposed to patterning through a photomask with a predetermined pattern, developed, rinsed, and then heated to thermally cure. The processing conditions were the optimal exposure dose and optimal development time measured in advance. The thermal curing conditions were also the same as those described above. Using this method, rectangular thick film portions with a width of 35 μm and a length of 35 μm were formed at multiple locations on the pixel dividing layer portion 50 that were not adjacent to the openings. The thick film portions were formed to a thickness of approximately 1.5 μm.
[0355] Next, an organic EL display was fabricated using the substrate on which the first electrode portion 48, the auxiliary electrode portion 49, and the pixel dividing layer portion 50 were formed. After nitrogen plasma treatment as a pretreatment, an organic EL layer portion 51 including a light-emitting layer was formed by vacuum deposition ((3) in FIG. 2). The degree of vacuum during deposition was 1×10 -3 The pressure was below 1 Pa, and the substrate was rotated relative to the evaporation source during evaporation. First, compound (HT-1) was evaporated to a thickness of 10 nm as a hole injection layer, and compound (HT-2) was evaporated to a thickness of 50 nm as a hole transport layer. Next, compound (GH-1) was evaporated as a host material to a thickness of 40 nm in the emitting layer, and compound (GD-1) was evaporated as a dopant material to a thickness of 40 nm so that the doping concentration was 10% by volume. Thereafter, compound (ET-1) and compound (LiQ) were laminated to a thickness of 40 nm at a volume ratio of 1:1 as electron transport materials. The compounds used in the organic EL layer (compounds (HT-1), (HT-2), (GH-1), (GD-1), (ET-1), and (LiQ)) were the same compounds as those described in paragraphs
[0599] to
[0600] of WO 2017 / 057281. Next, a compound (LiQ) was vapor-deposited to a thickness of 2 nm, followed by vapor-depositing MgAg (magnesium / silver = 10 / 1 (volume ratio)) to a thickness of 10 nm to form the second electrode portion 52, which is a transparent electrode ((4) in Figure 2). After that, in a low-humidity nitrogen atmosphere, a cap-shaped glass plate was attached using an epoxy resin adhesive to seal the substrate, and four 5 mm square top-emission organic EL displays were fabricated on one substrate. The film thickness here is the value displayed on a quartz crystal oscillator film thickness monitor.
[0356] Examples 2 to 104 and Comparative Examples 1 to 6: Using each composition shown in Tables 3-1 to 3-10, the same operations and evaluations as in Example 1 were carried out. The evaluation results are summarized in Tables 3-1 to 3-10. When a negative-tone photosensitive composition was used in each example, a prebaked film was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1, and spray-developed with a 2.38% by mass aqueous solution of TMAH or cyclopentanone. The time required for the prebaked film (unexposed area) to completely dissolve (Breaking Point; hereinafter, "BP") was measured, and the development time was set to 1.3 times the measured BP. A photomask with reversed light-transmitting and light-shielding areas was used, and after exposure at an optimal exposure dose, the developed pattern was thermally cured at 200°C for 60 minutes. The sulfur element content and sulfur-based anion content were measured only in Examples 45 to 56.

[0367] In Comparative Examples 1 to 4, the content of elemental fluorine in the total solid content of the composition does not satisfy the requirements for the composition of the present invention. In Comparative Examples 5 and 6, the content of elemental fluorine in the structure of the (A1x) resin is high, and the content of elemental fluorine in the total solid content of the composition exceeds the preferred range. Therefore, Comparative Examples 1 to 6 are inferior in various properties.
[0368] Example 105: Fabrication of an Organic EL Display An organic EL display was fabricated by the method described in Example 1, except that the thin film portion of the pixel dividing layer was fabricated using composition 47 instead of composition 1, and the thick film portion of the pixel dividing layer was formed using composition 51. The results of evaluating various properties in the same manner as in Example 1 are summarized in Table 3-11. The structural units of the resins and the structures of the compounds contained in the thin film portion and the thick film portion were analyzed using the same method. The thin film portion and the thick film portion each contained the resin and compound in composition 47 or composition 51, as well as resins and compounds having structures derived from them, as shown below.
