Description

Composition, film, optical filter, solid-state imaging device and image display device

[0001] The present invention relates to a composition containing a colorant, and also to a film, an optical filter, a solid-state imaging device, and an image display device.

[0002] Color filters are manufactured using a composition containing a coloring material. For example, Patent Document 1 describes an invention relating to a coloring composition for color filters containing a xanthene dye, polyethyleneimine, and a binder resin.

[0003] JP 2013-041145 A

[0004] In recent years, there has been a strong demand for smaller and thinner solid-state imaging devices. Accordingly, there has been a demand for thinner films containing color materials, such as color filters, used in solid-state imaging devices. To achieve thinner films while maintaining desired spectral performance, it is necessary to increase the concentration of the color material in the composition used for film formation.

[0005] However, when a pigment-containing colorant is used, increasing the colorant concentration in the composition relatively reduces the proportion of materials such as resins that can adsorb to the pigment, which makes the pigment more likely to aggregate during storage of the composition, and the viscosity of the composition tends to increase over time.

[0006] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a composition having excellent storage stability, and a film, an optical filter, a solid-state imaging device, and an image display device.

[0007] The present inventors have conducted research and found that the above object can be achieved by using the composition described below, and have thus completed the present invention.

[0009] According to the present invention, a composition having excellent storage stability can be provided. The present invention also provides a film, an optical filter, a solid-state imaging device, and an image display device.

[0010] The present invention will be described in detail below. In this specification, the term "to" is used to mean that the numerical values ​​before and after the term are included as the lower and upper limits. In the description of groups (atomic groups) in this specification, a term without specifying whether it is substituted or unsubstituted encompasses both unsubstituted groups (atomic groups) and substituted groups (atomic groups). For example, the term "alkyl group" encompasses not only unsubstituted alkyl groups (unsubstituted alkyl groups) but also substituted alkyl groups (substituted alkyl groups). In this specification, unless otherwise specified, "exposure" includes not only exposure using light but also drawing using particle beams such as electron beams and ion beams. Examples of light used for exposure include the bright line spectrum of a mercury lamp, far ultraviolet light typified by excimer lasers, extreme ultraviolet light (EUV light), X-rays, electron beams, and other actinic rays or radiation. As used herein, "(meth)acrylate" refers to either or both of acrylate and methacrylate, "(meth)acrylic" refers to either or both of acrylic and methacrylic, and "(meth)acryloyl" refers to either or both of acryloyl and methacryloyl. In the structural formulae herein, Me refers to a methyl group, Et refers to an ethyl group, Bu refers to a butyl group, and Ph refers to a phenyl group. As used herein, the weight-average molecular weight and number-average molecular weight are polystyrene-equivalent values ​​measured by GPC (gel permeation chromatography). As used herein, the term "total solids" refers to the total mass of all components of a composition excluding the solvent. As used herein, the term "pigment" refers to a coloring material that is difficult to dissolve in a solvent. As used herein, the term "process" refers not only to an independent process, but also to a process that cannot be clearly distinguished from other processes, as long as the intended effect of the process is achieved.

[0011] <Composition> The composition of the present invention is characterized by containing a coloring material including a pigment and a compound P having a structure represented by formula (b-1).

[0012] According to the composition of the present invention, by including the above-mentioned compound P, it is possible to suppress an increase in the viscosity of the composition over time. As a result, the composition of the present invention has excellent storage stability. The reason for this effect is presumed to be as follows. Since compound P has a structure represented by formula (b-1), it is presumed to be strongly adsorbed to the pigment surface at the site of the amide group in formula (b-1). Furthermore, in formula (b-1), X 1 is a polymer containing a repeating unit of a polyether structure with a number average molecular weight of 500 to 10,000, and therefore X 1 It is presumed that this makes it possible to suppress aggregation of pigments. Furthermore, compound P has a structure represented by formula (b-1) which has a hydrophilic amide group in its main chain and a polymer containing a repeating unit of a polyether structure, which is a hydrophilic polymer chain as a steric repulsive group, and therefore it is presumed that affinity between the main chain and the steric repulsive group is high, making aggregation of compounds P difficult to occur. For this reason, it is presumed that compound P can suppress aggregation of pigments, and as a result, the storage stability of the composition can be improved.

[0013] When a pattern is formed by photolithography using the composition of the present invention, the generation of development residues can also be suppressed. This is presumably because compound P is strongly adsorbed to the surface of the pigment, enhancing the emulsifying action of the pigment during development, allowing the composition in the unexposed areas to be efficiently removed by development. For these reasons, the composition of the present invention can also suppress the generation of development residues.

[0014] The composition of the present invention is preferably used as a composition for an optical filter. Examples of optical filters include color filters, infrared transmission filters, and infrared cut filters, and color filters are preferred.

[0175] The oxime compound is preferably a compound having a maximum absorption wavelength in the wavelength range of 350 to 500 nm, and more preferably a compound having a maximum absorption wavelength in the wavelength range of 360 to 480 nm.

[0177] As the photopolymerization initiator, a bifunctional or trifunctional or higher functional photoradical polymerization initiator may be used. By using such a photoradical polymerization initiator, two or more radicals are generated from one molecule of the photoradical polymerization initiator, thereby obtaining good sensitivity. Furthermore, when a compound with an asymmetric structure is used, crystallinity is reduced and solubility in solvents is improved, making it less likely to precipitate over time, thereby improving the storage stability of the composition. Specific examples of bifunctional or trifunctional or higher functional photoradical polymerization initiators include the compounds described in paragraph 0148 of WO 2022 / 065215.

[0178] The content of the photopolymerization initiator in the total solid content of the composition is preferably 0.1 to 20% by mass.

For details of these, please refer to paragraph 0223 of WO 2015 / 166779, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Furthermore, ester-based solvents substituted with a cyclic alkyl group and ketone-based solvents substituted with a cyclic alkyl group can also be preferably used. Specific examples of organic solvents include polyethylene glycol monomethyl ether, dichloromethane, methyl 3-ethoxypropionate, ethyl 3-ethoxypropionate, ethyl cellosolve acetate, ethyl lactate, diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, butyl acetate, methyl 3-methoxypropionate, 2-heptanone, 2-pentanone, 3-pentanone, 4-heptanone, cyclohexanone, 2-methylcyclohexanone, 3-methylcyclohexanone, 4-methylcyclohexanone, cycloheptanone, cyclooctanone, cyclohexyl acetate, cyclopentanone, ethyl carbitol acetate, butyl carbitol acetate, propylene glycol monomethyl ether ... Examples of suitable ethylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate include 3-methoxy-N,N-dimethylpropanamide, 3-butoxy-N,N-dimethylpropanamide, propylene glycol diacetate, 3-methoxybutanol, methyl ethyl ketone, gamma butyrolactone, sulfolane, anisole, 1,4-diacetoxybutane, diethylene glycol monoethyl ether acetate, butane-1,3-diyl diacetate, dipropylene glycol methyl ether acetate, diacetone alcohol (also known as diacetone alcohol, 4-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-pentanone), 2-methoxypropyl acetate, 2-methoxy-1-propanol, and isopropyl alcohol.However, it may be preferable to reduce the amount of aromatic hydrocarbons (benzene, toluene, xylene, ethylbenzene, etc.) used as organic solvents for environmental reasons (for example, the amount may be 50 ppm by mass (parts per million) or less, 10 ppm by mass or less, or 1 ppm by mass or less, relative to the total amount of organic solvents).

[0180] The metal content of the organic solvent is preferably low. The metal content of the organic solvent is preferably, for example, 10 parts per billion (ppb) by mass or less. If necessary, an organic solvent with a mass ppt (parts per trillion) level may be used, and such an organic solvent is provided, for example, by Toyo Gosei Co., Ltd. (The Chemical Daily, November 13, 2015).

[0181] Methods for removing impurities such as metals from organic solvents include, for example, distillation (molecular distillation, thin-film distillation, etc.) and filtration using a filter. The pore size of the filter used for filtration is preferably 10 μm or less, more preferably 5 μm or less, and even more preferably 3 μm or less. The filter material is preferably polytetrafluoroethylene, polyethylene, or nylon.

These substances are registered as environmentally restricted substances under the REACH (Registration Evaluation Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals) regulations, the PRTR (Pollutant Release and Transfer Register) Act, the VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) regulations, etc., and their usage amounts and handling methods are strictly regulated. These compounds may be used as solvents when producing each component used in the composition, and may be mixed into the composition as a residual solvent. From the viewpoints of human safety and environmental considerations, it is preferable to reduce these substances as much as possible. Examples of methods for reducing environmentally restricted substances include a method in which the system is heated or depressurized to a temperature above the boiling point of the environmentally restricted substance, thereby distilling off the environmentally restricted substance from the system. Furthermore, when distilling off a small amount of environmentally regulated substances, it is useful to perform azeotropy with a solvent having a boiling point equivalent to that of the solvent in question in order to increase efficiency. Furthermore, when a radically polymerizable compound is contained, a polymerization inhibitor or the like may be added before distillation under reduced pressure to prevent intermolecular crosslinking due to the progress of a radical polymerization reaction during distillation under reduced pressure. These distillation methods can be used at any stage, such as the stage of raw materials, the stage of a product obtained by reacting the raw materials (e.g., a resin solution or a polyfunctional monomer solution after polymerization), or the stage of a composition prepared by mixing these compounds.

[0274] <Performance Evaluation> (Storage Stability) The viscosity (mPa s) of the compositions of the Examples and Comparative Examples was measured using an "RE-85L" manufactured by Toki Sangyo Co., Ltd. After the above measurement, the compositions were stored in a thermostatic chamber at 45°C for 72 hours, and then the viscosity (mPa s) was measured again. The viscosity increase rate was calculated using the following formula to evaluate storage stability. Note that the viscosity measurements were all performed in a laboratory where the temperature and humidity were controlled to 22±5°C and 60±20%, and the temperature of the composition was adjusted to 25°C. Each measurement was performed three times, and the average value was used. Viscosity increase rate (%) = |(Viscosity of composition after storage in a constant temperature bath at 45°C for 72 hours / Viscosity of composition immediately after production) - 1) | x 100 - Evaluation criteria - A: The viscosity increase rate was 5% or less. B: The viscosity increase rate was more than 5% and 7.5% or less. C: The viscosity increase rate was more than 7.5% and 10% or less. D: The viscosity increase rate was more than 10% and 20% or less. E: The viscosity increase rate was more than 20%.

[0275] (Developability) An undercoat layer-forming composition (CT-4000L, manufactured by FUJIFILM Electronic Materials Co., Ltd.) was applied to an 8-inch (20.32 cm) silicon wafer using a spin coater so that the thickness after post-baking would be 0.1 μm, and the wafer was heated at 220° C. for 300 seconds using a hot plate to form an undercoat layer, thereby obtaining a silicon wafer (support) with an undercoat layer. Next, each composition was applied by spin coating so that the film thickness after post-baking would be 0.5 μm. Next, the wafer was heated at 90° C. for 2 minutes using a hot plate. Next, an i-line stepper exposure system FPA-3000i5+ (manufactured by Canon Inc.) was used to expose the wafer to 1000 mJ / cm of light with a wavelength of 365 nm. 2 The composition layer was exposed to light at an exposure dose of 1000 nm through a mask with a 2 cm square pattern. The exposed composition layer was then developed using a developing device (Act8 manufactured by Tokyo Electron). A 0.15% by mass aqueous solution of tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) was used as the developer, and shower development was performed at 23°C for 60 seconds. The wafer was then rinsed with a spin shower using pure water, and then spin-dried. A heat treatment (post-baking) was then performed for 5 minutes using a hot plate at 200°C to form a pattern (pixels). The silicon wafer with the formed pixels was observed with a scanning electron microscope (SEM) (magnification: 10,000x), and the developability was evaluated according to the following evaluation criteria. -Evaluation criteria- A: No residue was found outside the pixel formation area (unexposed area) B: Residue was found on average at 10 locations outside the pixel formation area (unexposed area), but it was less than one-tenth of the area of ​​the unexposed area C: Residue was found on average at 10 locations outside the pixel formation area (unexposed area) and was more than one-tenth but less than one-fifth of the area of ​​the unexposed area D: Residue was found on average at 10 locations outside the pixel formation area (unexposed area) and was more than one-fifth but less than one-half of the area of ​​the unexposed area E: Residue was found on average at 10 locations outside the pixel formation area (unexposed area) and was more than half of the area of ​​the unexposed area

[0276] (Sensitivity) An undercoat layer-forming composition (CT-4000L, manufactured by FUJIFILM Electronic Materials Co., Ltd.) was applied to an 8-inch (20.32 cm) silicon wafer using a spin coater so that the thickness after post-baking would be 0.1 μm, and the wafer was heated at 220°C for 300 seconds using a hot plate to form an undercoat layer, thereby obtaining a silicon wafer (support) with an undercoat layer. Next, each composition was applied by spin coating so that the film thickness after post-baking would be 0.5 μm. Next, the wafer was heated at 100°C for 2 minutes using a hot plate. Next, using an i-line stepper exposure system FPA-3000i5+ (manufactured by Canon Inc.), the wafer was exposed to light with a wavelength of 365 nm at a specific exposure dose through a 1.0 μm square Bayer pattern mask. Next, the exposed composition layer was developed using a developing system (Act8 manufactured by Tokyo Electron). A 0.15% by mass aqueous solution of tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) was used as the developer, and shower development was performed at 23°C for 60 seconds. The composition was then rinsed with a spin shower using pure water, followed by spin drying. A heat treatment (post-baking) was then performed for 5 minutes using a hot plate at 200°C to form a pattern (pixels). The silicon wafer on which the pixels were formed was divided, platinum was evaporated, and cross-sectional scanning electron microscope images of the pixels were obtained using a scanning electron microscope (magnification 10,000x). The obtained pixels were observed while changing the specific exposure dose, and the minimum exposure dose required to resolve square pixels with sides of 1.0 μm was determined. The sensitivity was evaluated according to the following evaluation criteria. The smaller the minimum exposure dose, the better the sensitivity of the composition. -Evaluation Criteria- A: The minimum exposure dose was 100 mJ / cm. 2 B: The minimum exposure dose was 100 to 200 mJ / cm 2 C: The minimum exposure dose was 200 to 500 mJ / cm 2 D: The minimum exposure dose was 500 to 1000 mJ / cm 2 E: The minimum exposure dose was less than 1000 mJ / cm 2 That was all
