Description

Photosensitive resin composition, method for producing cured relief pattern using the same, and method for producing cured film and polyimide film

[0001] The present disclosure relates to a photosensitive resin composition, a method for producing a cured relief pattern using the same, and a method for producing a cured film and a polyimide film.

[0002] Conventionally, polyimide resins, polybenzoxazole resins, phenolic resins, and the like, which combine excellent heat resistance and electrical and mechanical properties, have been used as insulating materials for electronic components, and passivation films, surface protective films, interlayer insulating films, and the like for semiconductor devices. Among these resins, those provided in the form of photosensitive resin compositions can easily form heat-resistant relief pattern films by applying the composition, exposing it to light, developing it, and subjecting it to a thermal imidization treatment through curing. Such photosensitive resin compositions have the advantage of enabling significant process reduction compared to conventional non-photosensitive materials.

[0003] On the other hand, in recent years, the mounting method (packaging structure) of semiconductor devices on printed wiring boards has also changed in view of improvements in integration density and computing functionality, as well as the miniaturization of chip sizes. Conventional mounting methods using metal pins and lead-tin eutectic solder have been replaced by structures in which a polyimide coating directly contacts the solder bumps, such as BGA (ball grid array) and CSP (chip size packaging), which enable higher density mounting. Furthermore, a structure has been proposed in which the surface of a semiconductor chip has multiple rewiring layers, each with an area larger than the area of ​​the semiconductor chip, such as FO (fan-out) (see Patent Document 1).

[0004] Copper is often used for wiring in semiconductor devices, but in large-area packaging structures, the difference in thermal expansion coefficients between different materials causes stress, which can lead to peeling between the copper and the interlayer insulating material, resulting in a deterioration in electrical properties. Therefore, materials used as interlayer insulating films are required to have high adhesion to copper. For example, Patent Document 2 describes the use of a purine derivative to inhibit copper discoloration and improve adhesion.

[0005] US Patent Application Publication No. 2018 / 0061699 JP 2012-194520 A

[0006] In recent years, semiconductor devices have become finer in wiring due to their higher performance, multi-functionality, lower power consumption, and lower costs, which has led to a need for higher resolution in insulating films. Furthermore, as the wiring of semiconductor devices becomes finer, the wiring width and spacing of the semiconductor devices become narrower, which has led to a significant problem of copper migration into resin layers (hereinafter also referred to as "copper migration" in the present disclosure) and short circuits between wirings. Therefore, the ability to inhibit copper migration of a photosensitive resin composition used as an insulating film is one of its important performance characteristics.

[0007] Furthermore, the application of semiconductor devices to automobiles and mobile phones is remarkable, and semiconductor devices in this field are required to have high reliability, and reliability tests are being carried out in high-temperature and high-humidity environments.

[0008] However, conventional interlayer insulating films have insufficient copper migration suppression capabilities, and copper migration sometimes occurs during reliability tests under high temperature and high humidity (b-HAST: Biased Highly Accelerated Stress Test). Furthermore, as copper migration progresses, voids (hereinafter also referred to as "copper voids" in this disclosure) may occur at the interface between the copper wiring and the resin layer. When copper voids occur at the interface between the copper wiring and the resin layer, adhesion between the two decreases, and in severe cases, the resin peels off from the copper, impairing insulation properties. Meanwhile, high-temperature curing is performed to improve copper migration suppression capabilities and film properties, but this tends to result in a decrease in copper adhesion. Therefore, an insulating film that exhibits low copper migration even in b-HAST tests and good copper adhesion even when cured at high temperatures is desired.

[0009] An object of the present disclosure is to provide a photosensitive resin composition that exhibits high copper adhesion even when cured at high temperatures, exhibits minimal copper migration in a b-HAST test, does not short-circuit for a long period of time, and has high resolution. Another object is to provide a method for forming a cured relief pattern using the photosensitive resin composition of the present disclosure, and methods for producing a cured film and a polyimide film.

[0064] When the terminals of the (A) polyimide resin are an acid anhydride group, a carboxyl group, and an amino group, the (A) polyimide resin is a polyimide resin obtained by imidizing a polyamic acid obtained by reacting a tetracarboxylic dianhydride with a diamine through dehydration and ring closure. The terminals of the (A) polyimide resin may be converted to the structures represented by the above general formulas (39) to (41) by reacting the acid anhydride groups, carboxyl groups, and amino groups with a predetermined compound.

[0066] The polyimide resin (A) whose terminal has a structure represented by general formula (40) can be obtained, for example, by reacting the amino group at the polyimide terminal with a chloride compound. Examples of the chloride compound include acryloyl chloride and methacryloyl chloride. The method for reacting the amino group at the polyimide terminal with the chloride compound is not particularly limited. For example, a polyimide solution subjected to dehydration and ring closure can be ice-cooled and the chloride compound can be added dropwise to react with the amino group of the dehydration and ring closure polyimide.

[0067] Polyimide resin (A) whose terminals have a structure represented by general formula (41) can be obtained, for example, by reacting the acid anhydride groups and carboxyl groups at the polyimide terminals with an alcohol-based compound. Examples of the alcohol-based compound include 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate: HEMA), 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate, 4-hydroxyethyl methacrylate, and 4-hydroxyethyl acrylate. The method for reacting the acid anhydride groups and carboxyl groups at the polyimide terminals with the alcohol-based compound is not particularly limited, but the acid anhydride groups and carboxyl groups of the dehydrated, ring-closed polyimide can be reacted with the alcohol-based compound using a condensing agent such as N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) or an esterification catalyst such as p-toluenesulfonic acid.

[0068] (A) In the production of polyimide resin, a reaction solvent may be used to efficiently carry out the reaction in a homogeneous system. The reaction solvent is not particularly limited as long as it can uniformly dissolve or suspend the tetracarboxylic dianhydride, diamine, and compound having a terminal polymerizable functional group. Examples of the reaction solvent include γ-butyrolactone (GBL), dimethyl sulfoxide, N,N-dimethylacetoacetamide, 1,3-dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone, 3-methoxy-N,N-dimethylpropanamide, 3-butoxy-N,N-dimethylpropanamide, N,N-dimethylformamide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, N-ethyl-2-pyrrolidone, and N,N-dimethylacetamide.

[0069] When a thermal imidization method is used in the production of (A) polyimide resin, an azeotropic solvent may be used to promote the imidization reaction.

Examples of purification methods include a method in which a solution of the polyimide resin (A) is dropped into water to remove unreacted materials by reprecipitation, a method in which a condensing agent insoluble in the reaction solvent is removed by filtration, and a method in which the catalyst is removed using an ion exchange resin. After these purification steps, the polyimide resin (A) may be dried by a known method and isolated in a powder state.

[0071] (B) Tetrazole Compound (Component B) The (B) tetrazole compound used in this embodiment has an acid dissociation constant (pKa) of 1.3 or more and 4.1 or less. By including such a (B) tetrazole compound, copper adhesion and copper migration suppression effects are obtained, and resolution is also improved. From the viewpoint of copper adhesion and copper migration suppression effects, the pKa is preferably 2.0 or more and 3.6 or less. For pKa, a value calculated using Advanced Chemistry Software V11.02 (1994-2018 ACD / Labs) is used.

[0072] The reason why the use of such a (B) tetrazole compound exhibits the above-mentioned effects is unclear and is not limited by theory, but the present inventors believe as follows. It is believed that the (B) tetrazole compound exerts its effects by coordinating to the copper of the substrate. In this case, it is presumed that if the pKa of the (B) tetrazole compound is 4.1 or less, the interaction with the (A) polyimide resin is strengthened, improving copper adhesion. On the other hand, if the pKa of the (B) tetrazole compound is 1.3 or more, the interaction with the (A) polyimide resin is not too strong, and unnecessary oxidation of the copper surface of the substrate is not caused, thereby suppressing copper migration and improving resolution. Therefore, it is presumed that the moderate acidity of the (B) tetrazole compound allows for both excellent adhesion to copper and the copper migration suppression effect, while also improving resolution.

[0073] Examples of the (B) tetrazole compound having a pKa of 1.3 or more and 4.1 or less include, but are not limited to, 1H-tetrazole-5-carboxylic acid (also known as 1H-tetrazole-5-formic acid), 1H-tetrazole-5-acetic acid, 1H-tetrazole-5-propionic acid, 1H-tetrazole-1-acetic acid, ethyl 1H-tetrazole-5-carboxylate (also known as ethyl 1H-tetrazole-5-formate), methyl 1H-tetrazole-5-acetate, 2-[4-(1H-1,2,3,4-tetrazol-5-yl)phenyl]acetic acid, 2-(2H-tetrazol-5-yl)butanedioic acid, 2,2-bis(2-2H-tetrazol-5-yl)ethyl)propanedioic acid, and 4-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)benzoic acid. Note that when these compounds are added to the photosensitive resin composition, they may be in the form of a hydrate.

[0074] Furthermore, from the viewpoints of copper adhesion, copper migration suppression effect, and resolution, the (B) tetrazole compound is preferably a compound having a carboxyl group. Examples include, but are not limited to, 1H-tetrazole-5-carboxylic acid (also known as 1H-tetrazole-5-formic acid), 1H-tetrazole-5-acetic acid, 1H-tetrazole-5-propionic acid, 1H-tetrazole-1-acetic acid, 2-[4-(1H-1,2,3,4-tetrazol-5-yl)phenyl]acetic acid, 2-(2H-tetrazol-5-yl)butanedioic acid, 2,2-bis(2-2H-tetrazol-5-yl)ethyl)propanedioic acid, and 4-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)benzoic acid. When these compounds are added to the resin composition, they may be in the form of hydrates.

[0075] Furthermore, from the viewpoints of copper adhesion, copper migration suppression effect, and resolution, it is preferable that the tetrazole compound (B) is represented by the following general formula (1): {In formula (1), R 1 represents a carboxyl group or the following general formula (2): and R 2 is a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms which may be substituted with at least one of a halogen atom, a hydroxyl group, an alkoxysilyl group, and an amino group.2 is not particularly limited as long as it is a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms which may be substituted with at least one of a halogen atom, a hydroxyl group, an alkoxysilyl group, and an amino group, but examples thereof include a branched or linear alkylene group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, or an aryl group having 6 to 10 carbon atoms, or a structure in which these are linked together. These may have a substituent such as a halogen atom, a hydroxyl group, an alkoxysilyl group, or an amino group. Examples of compounds represented by general formula (1) include, but are not limited to, 1H-tetrazole-5-carboxylic acid (also known as 1H-tetrazole-5-formic acid), 1H-tetrazole-5-acetic acid, 1H-tetrazole-5-propionic acid, 2-[4-(1H-1,2,3,4-tetrazol-5-yl)phenyl]acetic acid, and 4-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)benzoic acid. More preferred are 1H-tetrazole-5-acetic acid and 4-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)benzoic acid.

[0076] When the (B) tetrazole compound is a compound represented by the above formula (1), excellent copper adhesion, copper migration suppression effect, and copper void suppression effect can be obtained. The reason for this is unclear and not bound by theory, but it is thought that the unshared electron pair associated with the nitrogen atom in the tetrazole acts on copper and is unevenly distributed at the copper interface, and the constituent atoms of the carboxylic acid in the tetrazole compound form hydrogen bonds with the (A) polyimide precursor, thereby allowing the (A) polyimide resin to interact with copper and improve copper adhesion. The fact that the N at the 1-position of the tetrazole compound is bonded to hydrogen also makes it easier for the (B) tetrazole compound to coordinate to copper. In addition, it is thought that the uneven distribution of the (B) tetrazole compound at the copper interface strongly suppresses oxidation reactions at the copper interface, thereby suppressing copper migration and copper voids. In addition, in general formula (2), R 2 is a hydrocarbon group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, the boiling point of the molecule is high and the tetrazole compound (B) is unlikely to volatilize during pre-baking when the resin composition is coated on a substrate, so that it can remain in the film, and furthermore, it is likely to move within the film and be unevenly distributed at the interface. Therefore, it is presumed that this is more effective in improving copper adhesion and suppressing copper migration.

[0077] The content of the (B) tetrazole compound is preferably 0.01 parts by mass or more and 20 parts by mass or less, more preferably 0.1 parts by mass or more and 10 parts by mass or less, and even more preferably 0.2 parts by mass or more and 5 parts by mass or less, relative to 100 parts by mass of the (A) polyimide precursor and / or polyimide resin. The content is preferably 0.01 parts by mass or more from the viewpoint of copper adhesion, and 20 parts by mass or less from the viewpoint of copper migration suppression and storage stability of the resin composition.

[0078] (C) Heterocyclic Compound (Component C) The photosensitive resin composition of the present disclosure contains a (C) heterocyclic compound other than the (B) component. By including the (C) heterocyclic compound in addition to the (B) component, copper adhesion, copper migration suppression ability, and resolution are improved. Among the (C) heterocyclic compounds, heterocyclic compounds containing oxygen or nitrogen are preferred, and heterocyclic compounds containing nitrogen are particularly preferred.

[0083] Furthermore, among the heterocyclic compounds (C), from the viewpoint of copper adhesion during high-temperature curing and copper migration suppression ability, fused ring compounds are preferred, and in particular, compounds containing nitrogen in each of the fused rings are preferred. Examples of fused ring compounds include, but are not limited to, 7-methyl-2,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-5-carboxylic acid, xanthopterin, allopurinol, 4-[2-(2-amino-4,7-dihydro-4-oxo-3H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-5-yl)ethyl]benzoic acid, pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-ol, 1H,2H,3H,4H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4-dione, pteridin-4-ol, lumazine, 7-phenyl-pteridin-4-ol, pterin-6-carboxylic acid, 6-amino-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyri pyrimidin-4(7H)-one, 1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine-4,6(2H,5H)-dione, 7-deazahypoxanthine, 7-deazaxanthine, 2-amino-4-oxo-4,7-dihydro-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-5-carboxylic acid, 6-nitro-3H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-4-one, 7-chloropyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione, 6-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-ol, and 5-(4-iodophenyl)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine-2,4(3H,7H)-dione. Purine derivatives are also a type of fused ring compound. The reason for this is unclear, and without being bound by theory, it is thought that, since the heterocyclic compound (C) is a fused ring compound, the heterocyclic compound (C) is less likely to decompose or volatilize even after the high-temperature curing step that is performed when the photosensitive resin composition is made into a cured film, and remains in the cured film, thereby exhibiting copper adhesion and copper migration suppression ability.

[0084] Furthermore, among the heterocyclic compounds (C), it is preferable to contain a purine derivative, particularly from the viewpoint of copper adhesion and copper migration inhibition at high temperatures, and further from the viewpoint of solubility in the photosensitive resin composition.

[0086] R in the formula 3 and R 8 is not particularly limited as long as it is an amino group or an alkoxy group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, but is more preferably an amino group or an alkoxy group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms from the viewpoints of copper adhesion, copper migration inhibition, and solubility in the photosensitive resin composition.

[0087] Also, R in the formula 4 , R 6 , R 9 and R 11 is not particularly limited as long as it is a hydrogen atom or an amino group which may be substituted with a plurality of organic groups having 1 to 10 carbon atoms. 4 , R 6 , R 9 and R 11The organic group substituting the amino group in the formula may be a branched or linear alkyl group, an aromatic or carboxyl group, or may be substituted with a functional group such as an acetyl group or an acetoxy group. From the viewpoints of copper adhesion, copper migration suppression, and solubility in the photosensitive resin composition, the R 4 , R 6 , R 9 and R 11 is preferably an amino group or an amino group in which one hydrogen atom is substituted with an organic group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, and more preferably an amino group in which one hydrogen atom is substituted with an organic group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms and a carbonyl group.

[0088] Also, R 5 , R 7 , R 10 and R 12 is not particularly limited as long as it is a hydrogen atom or an organic group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, but may be a branched or linear alkyl group, an aromatic group, or a carboxyl group, and may be substituted with a functional group such as a hydroxyl group, a carbonyl group, an amino group, an amide group, a nitro group, or a halogen group. From the viewpoints of copper adhesion, copper migration suppression, and solubility in the photosensitive resin composition, R 5 , R 7 , R 10 and R 12 is preferably a hydrogen atom or an organic group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms and having a carbonyl group and / or a hydroxyl group, and more preferably a hydrogen atom or an organic group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms and having a carbonyl group.

[0089] By including a compound represented by the above formula (3), (4), (5), or (6), excellent copper adhesion can be obtained not only by low-temperature curing (curing at 200°C or less in the present disclosure) but also by high-temperature curing. Furthermore, copper migration suppression effects and copper void suppression effects can be obtained not only by high-temperature curing but also by low-temperature curing. In the present disclosure, the high-temperature curing temperature refers to a temperature of 250°C or higher.

[0090] The reason for this is unclear, and without being bound by theory, it is believed that when the photosensitive resin composition of this embodiment contains a purine compound represented by the above formula (3), (4), (5), or (6), the unshared electron pair associated with the nitrogen atom in the purine skeleton acts on copper and is unevenly distributed at the copper interface, and the constituent atoms of the primary or secondary amine form hydrogen bonds with the (A) polyimide precursor or polyimide, thereby allowing the (A) polyimide resin to interact with copper and improve copper adhesion. Furthermore, it is believed that the uneven distribution of the purine compound at the copper interface strongly suppresses oxidation reactions at the copper interface, thereby suppressing copper migration and copper voids. Furthermore, as described above, by having these structures, it is believed that the (C) heterocyclic compound is less likely to decompose or volatilize, even after undergoing a high-temperature curing process when the photosensitive resin composition is formed into a cured film, and remains in the cured film, thereby exhibiting copper adhesion and copper migration suppression capabilities.

[0096] R in the formula 13is not particularly limited as long as it is an organic group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, but may be a branched or linear alkyl group, an aromatic or carboxyl group, or may be substituted with a functional group such as an acetyl group or an acetoxy group. From the viewpoints of copper adhesion, copper migration suppression, and solubility in the photosensitive resin composition, it is preferably an organic group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms and a carbonyl group. 14 is not particularly limited as long as it is a hydrogen atom or an organic group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, but may be a branched or linear alkyl group, an aromatic group, or a carboxyl group, and may be substituted with a functional group such as a hydroxyl group, a carbonyl group, an amino group, an amide group, a nitro group, or a halogen group.

From the viewpoint of copper adhesion, 2-acetamido-6-hydroxypurine, N-(6-oxo-6,7-dihydro-1H-purin-2-yl)isobutyramide, and 9-diacetylguanine are more preferred.

The content is preferably 0.01 parts by mass or more from the viewpoint of copper adhesion, and is preferably 20 parts by mass or less from the viewpoints of copper migration suppression and storage stability of the photosensitive resin composition.

[0099] The total content of the (B) tetrazole compound and the (C) heterocyclic compound is preferably 0.1 parts by mass or more and 10 parts by mass or less per 100 parts by mass of the (A) component. More preferably, the total content of the (B) tetrazole compound and the (C) heterocyclic compound is 0.5 parts by mass or more and 5 parts by mass or less per 100 parts by mass of the (A) component. The total content is preferably 0.1 parts by mass or more to achieve sufficient effects in terms of copper adhesion, copper migration inhibition, and resolution, and is preferably 10 parts by mass or less from the viewpoints of copper adhesion, copper migration inhibition, and solubility in the photosensitive resin composition. The reason for this is unclear and not limited by theory, but it is presumed that with this total content, a brittle layer is less likely to form between the copper of the substrate and the photosensitive resin layer, resulting in good copper adhesion, and the ionic components in the photosensitive resin layer do not increase more than necessary, resulting in good copper migration inhibition. Furthermore, it is believed that the components (B) and (C) are unevenly distributed at the copper interface of the substrate, but the amount of uneven distribution becomes appropriate, and it is believed that the resolution also becomes good.

[0100] Furthermore, in order to improve copper adhesion, copper migration suppression effect, and resolution in a well-balanced manner, it is preferable that the ratio of the content of the (B) tetrazole compound to the content of the (C) heterocyclic compound (the content of the (B) tetrazole compound relative to the content of the (C) heterocyclic compound) satisfies the following formula (9): 0.1≦content (parts by mass) of the (B) tetrazole compound / content (parts by mass) of the (C) heterocyclic compound≦10 (9).

Examples of the (E) solvent include N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, N,N-dimethylacetamide, N,N-dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), tetramethylurea, acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone, cyclopentanone, cyclohexanone, methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, diethyl oxalate, ethyl lactate, Methyl lactate, butyl lactate, γ-butyrolactone (GBL), propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, propylene glycol monomethyl ether, benzyl alcohol, phenyl glycol, tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, morpholine, dichloromethane, 1,2-dichloroethane, 1,4-dichlorobutane, chlorobenzene, o-dichlorobenzene, anisole, hexane, heptane, benzene, toluene, xylene, mesitylene, and the like can be used. Among these, from the viewpoints of the solubility of the resin, the stability of the photosensitive resin composition, and the adhesion to the substrate, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, dimethyl sulfoxide, tetramethylurea, butyl acetate, ethyl lactate, γ-butyrolactone, propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, propylene glycol monomethyl ether, diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, benzyl alcohol, phenyl glycol, 3-methoxy-N,N-dimethylpropanamide, 3-butoxy-N,N-dimethylpropanamide, and tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol are preferred.

In particular, γ-butyrolactone and 3-methoxy-N,N-dimethylpropanamide are preferred from the viewpoint of in-plane uniformity when the photosensitive resin composition is applied onto a substrate.

[0105] The (E) solvent may be used alone or in combination of two or more types, but from the viewpoint of appropriately adjusting the stability of the photosensitive resin composition, two or more types are preferably used. When the photosensitive resin composition of the present embodiment contains two or more (E) solvents, from the viewpoint of in-plane uniformity, it is preferable that 50% by weight or more of the (E) solvents be either γ-butyrolactone or 3-methoxy-N,N-dimethylpropanamide, and it is more preferable that the (E) solvent contains γ-butyrolactone.

[0107] (F) Photopolymerizable Monomer (Component F) The photosensitive resin composition of the present embodiment may further contain (F) a photopolymerizable monomer. Use of (F) a photopolymerizable monomer promotes crosslinking of the photosensitive resin composition upon exposure, improving resolution, and further reducing the moisture permeability of the cured film, thereby providing an effect of inhibiting copper migration.

[0108] The photosensitive resin composition of this embodiment preferably contains 5 to 150 parts by mass of the (F) photopolymerizable monomer per 100 parts by mass of the (A) polyimide precursor and / or polyimide resin. To achieve good resolution, the photosensitive resin composition of this embodiment preferably contains 5 parts by mass or more of the (F) photopolymerizable monomer, more preferably 10 parts by mass or more, and even more preferably 20 parts by mass or more. On the other hand, if the (F) photopolymerizable monomer is contained in an excessive amount, copper adhesion may be reduced.

The upper limit, which can be arbitrarily combined with the above lower limit, is preferably 150 parts by mass or less, more preferably 100 parts by mass or less, and even more preferably 50 parts by mass or less, from the viewpoint of copper adhesion.

The (F) photopolymerizable monomer may be monofunctional or may be difunctional or higher. From the viewpoint of suppressing copper migration, the (F) photopolymerizable monomer is preferably trifunctional or higher, more preferably tetrafunctional or higher, and even more preferably hexafunctional or higher.

[0114] The photopolymerizable monomer (F) may contain a hydroxyl group or a urea group in the molecule. Examples of the photopolymerizable monomer (F) having a hydroxyl group in the molecule include those represented by the following general formula (55): {In the formula, X 4 is an organic group having 1 to 200 carbon atoms, and L 7 , L 8 and L 9 are each independently a hydrogen atom or a monovalent organic group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms. 4 is an integer from 1 to 10, and n 5 is an integer of 1 to 10.

[0171] <Method for Producing Cured Relief Pattern and Semiconductor Device> The method for producing a cured relief pattern according to the present disclosure includes the following steps: (1) applying the above-described photosensitive resin composition according to the present disclosure onto a substrate to form a photosensitive resin layer on the substrate; (2) exposing the photosensitive resin layer to light; (3) developing the exposed photosensitive resin layer to form a relief pattern; and (4) heat-treating the relief pattern to form a cured relief pattern.

[0172] (1) Photosensitive Resin Layer Formation Step In this step, the photosensitive resin composition of the present embodiment is applied to a substrate, and then dried as necessary to form a photosensitive resin layer. As the application method, a method conventionally used for applying a photosensitive resin composition, such as application using a spin coater, bar coater, blade coater, curtain coater, screen printing machine, etc., or spray application using a spray coater, etc., can be used.

[0173] (2) Exposure Step In this step, the photosensitive resin layer formed above is exposed to an ultraviolet light source or the like using an exposure device such as a contact aligner, a mirror projection, or a stepper, either directly or through a photomask or reticle having a pattern.

[0174] (3) Relief Pattern Forming Step In this step, the unexposed portions of the exposed photosensitive resin layer are developed and removed. The developing method for developing the exposed (irradiated) photosensitive resin layer can be any method selected from conventionally known photoresist developing methods, such as the rotary spray method, the paddle method, and the immersion method accompanied by ultrasonic treatment. After development, post-development baking may be performed at any combination of temperature and time, as needed, for the purpose of adjusting the shape of the relief pattern, etc.

[0175] The developer used for development is preferably, for example, a good solvent for the photosensitive resin composition of this embodiment, or a combination of a good solvent and a poor solvent.

Examples of poor solvents include toluene, xylene, methanol, ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl lactate, propylene glycol methyl ether acetate, and water. When a mixture of a good solvent and a poor solvent is used, it is preferable to adjust the ratio of the poor solvent to the good solvent depending on the solubility of the polymer in the photosensitive resin composition of this embodiment. Furthermore, two or more of each solvent can also be used in combination.

[0176] The photosensitive resin composition of this embodiment is preferably subjected to solvent development or prepared as a solvent-developable composition.

The concentration of the organic solvent in the developer is preferably 90% by mass or more, more preferably 100% by mass. In solvent development, the developer contains fewer ionic components, making it less likely for the ionic components to be mixed into the cured film, and thus more likely to exhibit the effect of suppressing copper migration.

Then, a parallel light mask aligner (PLA-501FA type, manufactured by Canon Inc.) was used to irradiate the laser beam at 800 mJ / cm 2The sample was exposed to light. To ensure electrical continuity during the b-HAST test, the copper electrode portions were masked to avoid exposure to light, and the unexposed portions were subsequently removed by development. After 30 minutes or more had elapsed since exposure, the sample was subjected to rotary spray development using a coater developer (D-Spin 60A, manufactured by SOKUDO Co., Ltd.) at 23°C and cyclopentanone as the developer for a time 1.4 times the time required for the unexposed portions to completely dissolve and disappear, followed by rotary spray rinsing with propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate for 10 seconds.

[0221] Looking at the results in Table 1, Comparative Examples 1 to 8, which do not satisfy the requirements of the present disclosure, are unable to improve all of the copper adhesion, copper migration suppression performance (corresponding to the b-HAST test results), and resolution. On the other hand, Examples 1 to 43, which satisfy the requirements of the present disclosure, were excellent in all of the copper adhesion, copper migration suppression performance, and resolution.

[0222] A comparison of Comparative Example 1 with Example 1 shows that the use of the (A) polyimide precursor and / or polyimide resin of the present disclosure improves both copper adhesion and copper migration inhibition performance. Furthermore, a comparison of Comparative Example 2 and Comparative Example 3 with Example 1 shows that the inclusion of the (B) tetrazole compound of the present disclosure, which has a pKa of 1.3 or more and 4.1 or less, among tetrazole compounds, improves all of copper adhesion, copper migration inhibition performance, and resolution. Furthermore, a comparison of Comparative Example 4 with Example 1 shows that the inclusion of the (B) component of the present disclosure, which is a tetrazole compound among compounds having a pKa of 1.3 or more and 4.1 or less, improves all of copper adhesion, copper migration inhibition performance, and resolution. Furthermore, a comparison of Comparative Example 5 with Example 7 and Comparative Example 8 with Example 8 shows that the inclusion of the (B) tetrazole compound of the present disclosure improves copper migration inhibition performance. Subsequently, a comparison of Comparative Example 6 with Example 17 shows that the inclusion of the (C) heterocyclic compound of the present disclosure improves copper adhesion. Furthermore, up to this point, the comparison was made at a high cure temperature of 250°C. However, by comparing Comparative Example 7 with Example 34, it can be seen that the inclusion of the tetrazole compound (B) results in good copper migration suppression performance even at a low cure temperature of 200°C.

[0223] Comparing Examples 13 and 14 with Example 12, Example 12, which contains a fused ring compound as the (C) heterocyclic compound, exhibits superior copper adhesion. Comparing Example 10 with Example 11, a comparison of Example 10 with Example 11 reveals that a (C) heterocyclic compound containing a purine derivative provides a well-balanced and superior copper adhesion, copper migration suppression, and resolution. Furthermore, comparing Example 10 with Examples 4 to 9, and comparing Examples 4 to 9 with Examples 1 to 3, it is clear that a (C) heterocyclic compound containing a purine derivative represented by any of formulas (3) to (6), or even a compound represented by formula (7), improves copper adhesion. Furthermore, comparing Example 20 with Examples 19 and 18 reveals that the presence of a carboxyl group in the (B) tetrazole compound improves copper adhesion and copper migration suppression. Furthermore, comparing Examples 18 and 19 with Examples 15 to 17 reveals that the presence of a (B) tetrazole compound represented by formula (1) improves copper adhesion.

[0224] Next, comparing Example 21 with Example 1, it is found that the inclusion of the (F) photopolymerizable monomer improves resolution. Furthermore, comparing Examples 21 to 24, it is found that a good balance of copper adhesion, copper migration suppression performance, and resolution is achieved when the total content of the (B) tetrazole compound and the (C) heterocyclic compound is 0.1 to 10 parts by mass. Furthermore, comparing Example 21 with Examples 25 to 28, it is found that a good balance of performance is achieved when the ratio of the content of the (B) tetrazole compound to the content of the (C) heterocyclic compound is 0.1 ≦ (B) tetrazole compound content (parts by mass) / (C) heterocyclic compound content (parts by mass) ≦ 10.

[0225] A comparison of Example 30 with Example 31 shows that the inclusion of (G) a thermal crosslinking agent improves copper migration suppression performance. Furthermore, a comparison of Example 32 with Examples 29 and 30 shows that the inclusion of (I) an acid component other than the tetrazole compound (B) improves copper migration suppression performance. A comparison of Example 33 with Example 30 shows that the inclusion of (H) a silane coupling agent improves copper adhesion. Furthermore, a comparison of Example 21 with Examples 34 to 36 shows that all performances are excellent at all cure temperatures of 200°C, 250°C, 280°C, and 350°C.

[0226] By using the photosensitive resin composition according to the present disclosure, it is possible to obtain a cured relief pattern with excellent copper adhesion even when cured at high temperatures, with little copper migration in the b-HAST test, and with high resolution. The photosensitive resin composition according to the present disclosure can be suitably used in the field of photosensitive materials useful for manufacturing electrical and electronic materials such as semiconductor devices and multilayer wiring boards.
