Description

Method for manufacturing a bonded body, a bonded body, a method for manufacturing a device, and a resin composition

[0001] The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a bonded body, a method for manufacturing a bonded body, a device, and a resin composition.

[0002] Electronic devices such as mobile phones and tablet terminals are becoming increasingly smaller, while their functions are becoming more diverse. To meet these needs, electronic circuits incorporated into these devices require further miniaturization, high integration, and high-density mounting. Hybrid bonding is being considered as a method for joining electrodes in two or more semiconductor devices to achieve this miniaturization, high integration, and high-density mounting. Hybrid bonding enables high-density interconnection without the use of wires, spherical solder bumps, or underfill, and allows for fine wiring with short wiring distances. It offers various advantages such as improved electrical performance, reduced power consumption, and reduced communication delay.

[0003] For example, Non-Patent Document 1 describes a method in which a low-temperature curing polyimide material is formed on a copper pillar made using a dry film resist, smoothed by CMP polishing, and then bonded to a pattern substrate made using the same process to create a component.

[0004] Comprehensive Study on Advanced Chip on Wafer Hybrid Bonding with Copper / Polyimide Systems, 2022 IEEE 72nd Electronic Components and Technology Conference (ECTC), pp317-323

[0005] In hybrid bonding, when polyimide is used as the insulating film, a composition containing polyimide or its precursor is applied to a substrate having electrodes, the composition is cured to form a cured product, and after surface polishing, bonding is performed. Here, shortening the polishing time of the surface of the cured product is considered one of the important factors for shortening the manufacturing process time and improving productivity. Furthermore, suppressing the occurrence of voids during bonding is also important from the viewpoint of improving the insulation reliability of the product, improving yield, and improving productivity.

[0011] (Method for manufacturing a bonded body) The method for manufacturing a bonded body of the present invention includes the steps of: preparing a base material A having a surface equipped with an electrode A; forming an organic insulating portion on the surface of the base material A equipped with the electrode A; preparing a base material B having a surface equipped with an electrode B; and joining the surface of the base material A equipped with the organic insulating portion and the surface of the base material B equipped with the electrode B, wherein the organic insulating portion forming step includes the steps of: applying a resin composition to the surface of the base material A equipped with the electrode A to form a resin composition film having a film thickness of 1.5 times or more the height of the electrode A; and removing the resin composition film with an organic solvent to reduce its film thickness.

[0012] The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a bonded body that reduces the time required for the polishing process in the manufacturing of the bonded body and suppresses the generation of voids. In the manufacturing of semiconductor devices, for example, a bonded body is obtained by bonding a wafer, chips, etc., to a substrate such as a wafer. In conventional bonding methods, a resin film is formed between and on the electrodes in the substrate before bonding, and the resin film is polished with CMP or the like before bonding. The applicant believed that the time required for this polishing is relatively long, and that shortening this time would greatly improve the productivity of the process. The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a bonded body that includes the steps of forming a resin composition film whose thickness is 1.5 times or more the height of the electrodes, and a removal step of reducing the thickness of the resin composition film with an organic solvent. This removal with an organic solvent is generally considered to improve the productivity of the process because the rate of reduction of film thickness is much faster compared to polishing with CMP or the like. In addition, since polishing can be omitted or the amount of polishing can be made very small, the generation of scratches due to polishing is suppressed, and as a result, the generation of voids is also suppressed.

[0013] Non-patent document 1 neither describes nor suggests a method for manufacturing the joint of the present invention. The method for manufacturing the joint of the present invention will be described in detail below.

[0014] <Step of preparing base material A> The method for manufacturing the bonded body of the present invention includes a step of preparing a base material A having a surface equipped with electrodes A. In the step of preparing base material A, base material A may be manufactured by a known method (for example, plating on a substrate such as a silicon substrate), or it may be obtained by means of purchase or other means.

[0015] [Substrate A] Substrate A has a surface having electrode A. The form of substrate A may be a wafer or a chip, but being a wafer is one of the preferred embodiments of the present invention. In the present invention, a wafer refers to a substrate containing a semiconductor, and is a concept that includes panels formed from multiple semiconductor elements. In the present invention, a chip refers to an individual piece containing a semiconductor formed by dicing or the like, and may be a single-sided chip or a double-sided chip.

[0016] The shape of the base material A is not particularly limited, but examples include polygonal flat plates, discs, polyhedra, etc. The thickness of the base material A is preferably 0.1 to 5 mm, and more preferably 0.2 to 1 mm. The electrode A in the base material A is preferably a pillar electrode. Furthermore, the electrode A preferably contains a metal, more preferably contains at least one metal selected from the group consisting of tin (Sn), gold (Au), silver (Ag), copper (Cu), aluminum (Al), tungsten (W), palladium (Pd), platinum (Pt), cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), zinc (Zn), ruthenium (Ru), iridium (Ir), rhodium (Rh), lead (Pb), bismuth (Bi), and indium (In), more preferably contains at least one metal selected from the group consisting of Cu, Sn, Ni, Ag, Bi, In, Sb, and Ti, and even more preferably contains Cu or Sn. Examples of electrodes containing Cu or Sn include electrodes made of Cu, Sn, Sn-Ag alloy, Sn-Sb alloy, Sn-Bi alloy, etc. In this specification, the term "containing metal X" is used to collectively refer to at least one of metal X or an alloy containing that metal. Note that the alloy may contain elements other than those exemplified above. For example, a copper alloy may contain silicon atoms to form a Corson alloy. In addition, oxygen which is inevitably dissolved, and organic residues of the raw material compounds which are mixed in during precipitation, etc., may be present. The electrode A described above may be an electrode made up of multiple different components. For example, a substrate may have a portion made of a metal such as Cu, Ag, Au, or an alloy containing one or more of these (hereinafter also referred to as the "electrode portion"), and a portion made of a metal such as Ni, Sn, Pb, or an alloy containing one or more of these, which is used as solder (hereinafter also referred to as the "conducting passage"), may be formed on the electrode portion of Cu, etc., and the electrode portion and the conducting passage may be in series to form one electrode A. Among these, it is preferable that the electrode A comprises at least a member containing Cu and a member containing Sn. An example of a substrate A having a surface equipped with such an electrode A is the substrate A used in the embodiment of the present invention. In the substrate A, a guide passage made of SnAg is formed on the electrode portion made of Cu.

[0017] Furthermore, the material used for the electrode portion is not particularly limited, but examples include tin, gold, silver, copper, aluminum, tungsten, palladium, platinum, cobalt, nickel, zinc, ruthenium, iridium, rhodium, or alloys thereof. Among these, metals containing copper, metals containing aluminum, metals containing tungsten, metals containing nickel, or metals containing gold are preferred for the electrode portion, metals containing copper are more preferred, and copper is even more preferred. As the metal used for the electrode portion, it is preferable to use a metal that does not melt even in the joining process. The melting point of the metal used for the electrode portion is preferably 500°C or higher, more preferably 700°C or higher, and even more preferably 800°C or higher. There is no particular upper limit, but for example, it is preferable to set it to 3000°C or lower. The material used for the conductive passage is not particularly limited, but examples include tin, lead, silver, copper, zinc, bismuth, or indium, or alloys thereof. Among these, in the present invention, solder made of tin or tin alloy (metal containing tin) is preferred. Recently, lead-free soldering technology has also advanced, and it is also preferable to select such materials. The metal used for the conduit is preferably a metal that melts during the joining process. The melting point of the metal used for the conduit is preferably 400°C or lower, more preferably 300°C or lower, and even more preferably 250°C or lower. The lower limit of the melting point is not particularly limited if the metal is solid at room temperature, but for example, it is preferably 150°C or higher. Furthermore, it is preferable that multiple electrodes A are formed on the substrate A.

[0018] The material used for substrate A is not particularly limited and can be semiconductor manufacturing substrates such as silicon, silicon nitride, polysilicon, silicon oxide, amorphous silicon, quartz, glass, optical film, ceramic material, vapor-deposited film, magnetic film, reflective film, metal substrates such as Ni, Cu, Cr, Fe, paper, SOG (Spin On Glass), TFT (thin-film transistor) array substrate, or electrode plate for plasma display panels (PDP). The substrate may have layers such as an adhesion layer or oxide layer made of hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) on its surface. In this invention, semiconductor manufacturing substrates are particularly preferred, and silicon substrates (silicon wafers) are more preferred. Substrate A may have an electronic circuit region including an electronic circuit. The electronic circuit may also have elements such as semiconductors. Furthermore, it is preferable that the electronic circuit is electrically connected to electrode A. When substrate A is a wafer, the size can be 100 mm or more in diameter (or maximum diameter if substrate A is not circular). Furthermore, for large substrates, it is preferable that they be 200 mm or larger, and more preferably 250 mm or larger. There is no particular upper limit, but it is preferable that they be 2,000 mm or smaller. For substrate A, if it is a chip, the diameter (maximum diameter if substrate A is not circular) is preferably 7 mm or larger, more preferably 10 mm or larger, and even more preferably 20 mm or larger. As for the upper limit, it is preferable that it be 50 mm or smaller, more preferably 40 mm or smaller, and even more preferably 30 mm or smaller.

[0019] <Organic Insulation Formation Step> The method for manufacturing the bonded body of the present invention includes an organic insulation formation step in which an organic insulation portion is formed on the surface of the base material A that has the electrode A. The organic insulation portion is preferably formed to be in contact with the electrode A, and more preferably formed to fill the recess between the electrode A and the electrode A. Here, forming the organic insulation portion on the surface of the base material A that has the electrode (electrode A) means that the organic insulation portion is formed on the surface that has the electrode (electrode A), for example, another layer may be formed on the surface of the base material A and the organic insulation portion may be formed to fill the recess between the electrode A and the electrode A. That is, the surface of the base material A and the organic insulation portion do not necessarily have to be in contact, and another layer such as an adhesive layer may be formed between the surface of the base material A and the organic insulation portion. Furthermore, the organic insulation portion only needs to be formed on at least a part of the electrode A, but for example, forming it on all of the electrode A is also one of the preferred embodiments of the present invention. The organic insulation formation step preferably includes applying the resin composition to the surface of the base material A that has the electrode A and heating it. Details of application and heating will be described later.

[0020] [Organic Insulator] The organic insulating component is preferably a member containing polyimide, and may further contain components other than polyimide. Examples of components other than polyimide include components other than polyimide contained in the resin composition described later, and components that have been modified (decomposed, polymerized, structurally changed, etc.) by heating. Details of these components will be described later.

[0021] [Application Step] The organic insulating part formation step includes a step (application step) of applying the resin composition to the surface of the substrate A that has the electrode A, to form a resin composition film whose thickness is 1.5 times or more the height of the electrode A. Here, it is also preferable that the resin composition includes at least one resin selected from the group consisting of polyimide precursor, polyimide, polybenzoxazole precursor, and polybenzoxazole. Details of these resins will be described later. As described above, other layers may be formed on the surface of the substrate A, and the resin composition of the present application may be applied on top of other layers formed on the surface of the substrate A.

[0022] In the application process, the resin composition is preferably applied by coating. When the resin composition is applied by coating, it is not necessary to apply pressure to electrodes A such as pillars during application, which has the advantage of reducing the likelihood of substrate damage such as chip cracking. Examples of methods for applying the resin composition onto the substrate A include dip coating, air knife coating, curtain coating, wire bar coating, gravure coating, extrusion coating, spray coating, spin coating, slit coating, and inkjet coating. From the viewpoint of uniformity of film thickness, spin coating, slit coating, spray coating, or inkjet coating are more preferred, and from the viewpoint of uniformity of film thickness and productivity, spin coating and slit coating are preferred. By adjusting the solid content concentration of the resin composition and the coating conditions according to the method, a film of the desired thickness can be obtained. Furthermore, the coating method can be appropriately selected depending on the shape of the substrate; for circular substrates such as wafers, spin coating, spray coating, and inkjet coating are preferred, while for rectangular substrates, slit coating, spray coating, and inkjet coating are preferred. In the case of the spin coating method, for example, it can be applied at a rotation speed of 500 to 3,500 rpm for about 10 seconds to 3 minutes. Alternatively, a method can be applied in which a coating film formed in advance on a temporary support using the above application method is transferred onto the substrate. Regarding the transfer method, the manufacturing methods described in paragraphs 0023, 0036 to 0051 of Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2006-023696 and paragraphs 0096 to 0108 of Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2006-047592 can be suitably used in the present invention as well.

[0023] For example, the resin composition may be used in film form. Specifically, a resin composition containing a solvent can be applied to a film-like temporary support, and the solvent can be removed to form a resin film with a temporary support having a resin film. The resin film with the temporary support can be laminated onto a substrate A, and the temporary support can be removed to apply the resin composition to the electrode-containing surface of the substrate A. The lamination pressure is preferably 1 MPa or less, and more preferably 0.1 to 0.3 MPa. By using such a resin film with a temporary support, the process in the organic insulation part formation step is simplified, and by preparing dry films with different resin film thicknesses, it becomes easy to form resin films of the desired thickness on various substrates A. In the above resin film, the solvent content can be 5% by mass or less of the total mass of the resin film. As a method for removing the solvent, for example, a step of removing the solvent under conditions of 100°C to 150°C for 1 to 5 minutes may be carried out.

[0024] The resin film with the temporary support can be in the form of a roll that can be wound up, or in the form of a single sheet such as a rectangular shape.

[0025] As a temporary support, for example, polymer films or metal foils can be used. Polymer films are not particularly limited, but examples include polyolefins such as polyethylene and polypropylene, polyesters such as polyethylene terephthalate and polybutylene terephthalate, polycarbonate, release paper such as silicone sheets, thermoplastic resin sheets with heat resistance such as fluororesins and polyimide resins. Metal foils are not particularly limited, but examples include copper or copper alloys, aluminum or aluminum alloys, iron or iron alloys, silver or silver-containing alloys, gold or gold alloys, zinc or zinc alloys, nickel or nickel alloys, tin or tin alloys. From the viewpoint of adjusting the peel strength, polyesters such as polyethylene terephthalate and polybutylene terephthalate are preferred, and polyethylene terephthalate is more preferred.

[0026] The thickness of the temporary support is not particularly limited, but may be, for example, 10 to 100 μm or 10 to 70 μm. This is preferable because it improves handling when manufacturing the resin film with the temporary support.

[0027] The resin film with temporary support may be single-layer or multi-layer, and may contain one or more types of resin films. In the case of multi-layer films, they may be composed of the same type or different types. Furthermore, the resin film with temporary support may have a protective film on the outermost layer side of the resin film.

[0028] In this embodiment, the method for forming the resin film with a temporary support is not particularly limited, but for example, a method can be used in which a varnish-like resin composition is applied to the temporary support using, for example, a comma coater, die coater, lip coater, or bar coater to form a coating film, and then the solvent is removed by appropriately drying the coating film. Among such coating methods, a comma coater may be used from the viewpoint of productivity.

[0029] Furthermore, a process to remove excess film from the edges of the substrate may be performed. Examples of such processes include edge bead rinsing (EBR) and back rinsing. Alternatively, a pre-wetting process may be employed in which various solvents are applied to the substrate before applying the resin composition to improve the wettability of the substrate, and then the resin composition is applied.

[0030] Furthermore, if the resin composition contains a solvent, the process may include a drying step (a drying step) in which the component made of the resin composition (hereinafter also simply referred to as "film") is dried after the resin composition is applied to the substrate A. The drying temperature in the drying step is preferably 50 to 150°C, more preferably 70 to 130°C, and even more preferably 90 to 110°C. Drying may also be performed under reduced pressure. An example of a drying time is 30 seconds to 20 minutes, preferably 1 to 10 minutes, and more preferably 2 to 7 minutes.

[0031] The resin composition is applied and, if necessary, dried to form a resin composition film on the surface of the substrate A that has the electrode A. Here, the thickness of the resin composition film is 1.5 times or more the height of the electrode A, preferably 2.5 times or more, and more preferably 3.0 times or more. The upper limit of the above magnification is not particularly limited, but it is preferably 5.0 times or less. The thickness of the resin composition film and the height of the electrode A are measured by cross-sectional SEM (scanning electron microscope) observation. The thickness of the resin composition film is the average value of the distance from the surface on the substrate A side to the surface opposite to the substrate A in the portion of the resin composition film where the electrode A is not present. The height of the electrode A is the average value of the distance from the surface of a member other than the electrode, such as a silicon wafer on the substrate A, to the surface of the electrode A opposite to the member other than the electrode. If there are multiple electrodes A, the height of the electrode A may be the height of the smallest electrode A. Furthermore, the film thickness of the resin composition film is preferably 1.5 times or more the average height of all electrodes A, more preferably 2.5 times or more, and even more preferably 3.0 times or more. The upper limit of the above magnification is not particularly limited, but it is preferably 5.0 times or less.

[0032] From the viewpoint of shortening the process time, the dissolution rate of the resin composition film in cyclopentanone is preferably 10 nm / sec or more, more preferably 50 nm / sec or more, and even more preferably 100 nm / sec or more. From the viewpoint of reliability, the above dissolution rate is preferably 500 nm / sec or less, more preferably 300 nm / sec or less, and even more preferably 200 nm / sec or less. The above dissolution rate is calculated by immersing a substrate A having the resin composition film in cyclopentanone and measuring the decrease in film thickness using a film thickness measuring instrument.

[0033] [Removal Step] The organic insulating part formation step includes a removal step in which the film thickness of the resin composition film is reduced using an organic solvent. In the removal step, the film thickness of the resin composition film may be reduced overall, or it may be reduced in part.

[0035] In the present invention, cyclopentanone and γ-butyrolactone are particularly preferred as the organic solvent, and cyclopentanone is more preferred. One or more organic solvents may be used as a mixture. The organic solvent may further contain other components. Examples of other components include water, known surfactants, and known defoaming agents. The content of these other components is preferably 20% by mass or less, more preferably 10% by mass or less, and even more preferably 5% by mass or less, based on 100 parts by mass of the organic solvent.

[0036] -Method of supplying organic solvent- The method of supplying the organic solvent is not particularly limited as long as it can reduce the film thickness of the resin composition film, and can be a method of immersing the substrate A in the organic solvent, a method of supplying the organic solvent onto the substrate A using a nozzle and removing it with a paddle, or a method of continuously supplying the organic solvent. The type of nozzle is not particularly limited, and examples include straight nozzles, shower nozzles, spray nozzles, etc. From the viewpoint of the penetration and removal of the organic solvent and the efficiency of manufacturing, the method of supplying the organic solvent with a straight nozzle or the method of continuously supplying it with a spray nozzle is preferred, and from the viewpoint of the penetration of the organic solvent, the method of supplying it with a spray nozzle is more preferred. Alternatively, after continuously supplying the organic solvent with a straight nozzle, the substrate may be spun to remove the organic solvent from the substrate A, and after spin drying, the organic solvent may be supplied again with a straight nozzle, and the substrate A may be spun to remove the organic solvent from the substrate A, and this process may be repeated multiple times. Furthermore, possible methods for supplying the organic solvent include a process in which the organic solvent is continuously supplied to the substrate A, a process in which the organic solvent is kept in a nearly static state on the substrate A, a process in which the organic solvent is vibrated on the substrate A using ultrasound or the like, and a process that combines these methods.

[0037] The removal time is preferably 5 seconds to 10 minutes, and more preferably 10 seconds to 5 minutes. The temperature of the organic solvent is not particularly specified, but it can usually be carried out at 10 to 45°C, preferably 20 to 40°C.

[0038] After treatment with an organic solvent, rinsing may be performed further. Alternatively, methods such as supplying the rinsing solution before the organic solvent in contact with the resin composition film has completely dried may be employed. It is preferable to use an organic solvent different from the one used to remove the resin composition film for rinsing. Examples of rinsing solutions include PGMEA (propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate) and IPA (isopropanol), with PGMEA being preferred. When the rinsing solution contains an organic solvent, one or more organic solvents may be used in mixture form. In this invention, cyclopentanone, γ-butyrolactone, dimethyl sulfoxide, N-methylpyrrolidone, cyclohexanone, PGMEA, and PGME are particularly preferred, cyclopentanone, γ-butyrolactone, dimethyl sulfoxide, PGMEA, and PGME are more preferred, and cyclohexanone and PGMEA are even more preferred.

[0039] If the rinsing solution contains an organic solvent, it is preferable that the rinsing solution contains 50% or more by mass of the organic solvent, more preferably 70% or more by mass of the organic solvent, and even more preferably 90% or more by mass of the organic solvent. Alternatively, the rinsing solution may contain 100% by mass of the organic solvent.

[0040] The rinse solution may further contain other components. Examples of other components include known surfactants and known defoaming agents.

[0041] -Method of supplying the rinsing solution- The method of supplying the rinsing solution is not particularly limited, and the same method as for the organic solvent described above can be used.

[0042] - Dissolution Rate - In the removal process, the dissolution rate of the resin composition film in the organic solvent is preferably 10 nm / sec or more, more preferably 50 nm / sec or more, and even more preferably 100 nm / sec or more, from the viewpoint of shortening the process time. From the viewpoint of reliability, the dissolution rate is preferably 500 nm / sec or less, more preferably 300 nm / sec or less, and even more preferably 200 nm / sec or less. The dissolution rate is calculated by measuring the amount of film thickness reduction in the removal process using a film thickness measuring instrument.

[0043] -Removal Amount- The amount of reduction in the thickness of the resin composition film during the removal process is not particularly limited, but it is preferably an amount that reduces the thickness of the resin composition on electrode A to 200 nm or less, more preferably to 100 nm or less, and even more preferably to 50 nm or less. The lower limit is not particularly limited and may be an amount that reduces the thickness of the resin composition on electrode A to 0 nm. The above reduction amount is preferably, for example, 5 to 50 μm, and more preferably to 10 to 30 μm.

[0044] [Patterning step] The organic insulating part formation step may include a patterning step of the resin composition film. If a resin composition containing a photosensitive compound such as a photopolymerization initiator described later is used, this patterning can be carried out by exposure and development. The patterning step is preferably performed after the application step described above and before the removal step described above.

[0045] - Exposure Step - In the organic insulating part formation step, the resin composition film may be subjected to an exposure step in which the film is selectively exposed. That is, the method for manufacturing the bonded body of the present invention may include an exposure step in which the film formed by the application step is selectively exposed in the organic insulating part formation step. Selective exposure means exposing a part of the organic insulating part. Furthermore, by selective exposure, an exposed area (exposed area) and an unexposed area (unexposed area) are formed in the organic insulating part. Details of the exposure step, such as exposure means and exposure conditions, can be found in paragraphs 0027 to 0029 of Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2023-178289. The above description is incorporated herein by reference.

[0046] -Post-exposure heating step- The film subjected to the exposure step may be subjected to a heating step after exposure (post-exposure heating step). That is, the method for manufacturing the bonded body of the present invention may include a post-exposure heating step in which the organic insulating portion exposed in the exposure step is heated. The post-exposure heating step can be performed after the exposure step and before the development step. For details of the post-exposure heating step, refer to paragraph 0030 of Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2023-178289. The above description is incorporated herein by reference.

[0047] -Development Process- The film after exposure may be subjected to a development process in which a pattern is formed by developing it with a developer. That is, the method for manufacturing a bonded body of the present invention may include a development process in the organic insulating part formation process in which a pattern is formed by developing the film exposed in the exposure process with a developer. By developing, one of the exposed and unexposed parts of the film is removed, and a pattern is formed. Here, development in which the unexposed part of the organic insulating part is removed by the development process is called negative development, and development in which the exposed part of the organic insulating part is removed by the development process is called positive development. By performing exposure development, for example, it is possible to remove the resin composition from the parts that are cut during dicing (dicing lines). According to such an embodiment, for example, it is possible to prevent foreign matter contamination due to resin peeling during dicing. As a result, the yield in the manufacture of the bonded body can be improved. For details of the development process, such as the developer, development method, and development conditions, refer to paragraphs 0031 to 0047 of Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2023-178289. The above description is incorporated herein by reference.

[0048] [Heating Step] The organic insulating part formation step is preferably subjected to a heating step in which the resin composition film is heated after the removal step described above. That is, the organic insulating part formation step may include a heating step in which the resin composition film is heated. For example, this could be an embodiment in which the resin composition film is heated after the removal step, or an embodiment in which the patterned film is heated after the application step, exposure step, development step and removal step. In the heating step, some of the structures contained in the specific resin described later may be further cyclized. In addition, crosslinking of crosslinkable groups in the specific resin or crosslinking agents other than the specific resin may also proceed. The heating temperature (maximum heating temperature) in the heating step is preferably 250°C or less, more preferably 220°C or less, even more preferably 200°C or less, and can also be 180°C or less. The lower limit of the above heating temperature is preferably 160°C or higher, and more preferably 170°C or higher.

[0049] The heating step is preferably a step in which heating promotes the polymerization of polymerizable groups in the organic insulating portion. Alternatively, the heating step may be a step in which heating promotes the cyclization reaction of a specific resin.

[0050] In the heating process, heating is preferably carried out at a heating rate of 1 to 12°C / minute from the initial heating temperature to the maximum heating temperature. More preferably, the heating rate is 2 to 10°C / minute, and even more preferably 3 to 10°C / minute. By setting the heating rate to 1°C / minute or more, it is possible to prevent excessive volatilization of acid or solvent while ensuring productivity, and by setting the heating rate to 12°C / minute or less, it is possible to alleviate residual stress in the cured product. In addition, in the case of an oven capable of rapid heating, it is preferable to carry out heating at a heating rate of 1 to 8°C / second from the initial heating temperature to the maximum heating temperature, more preferably 2 to 7°C / second, and even more preferably 3 to 6°C / second.

[0051] The starting temperature for heating is preferably 20°C to 150°C, more preferably 20°C to 130°C, and even more preferably 25°C to 120°C. The starting temperature for heating refers to the temperature at which the process of heating to the maximum heating temperature is initiated. For example, when a resin composition is applied to a substrate and then dried, this is the temperature of the film (layer) after drying. It is preferable to start the heating process from a temperature 30 to 200°C lower than the boiling point of the solvent contained in the resin composition.

[0052] The heating time (heating time at the maximum heating temperature) is preferably 1 to 60 minutes, more preferably 2 to 30 minutes, and even more preferably 5 to 20 minutes.

[0053] Heating may be carried out in stages. For example, the process may involve raising the temperature from 25°C to 120°C at a rate of 3°C / min, holding at 120°C for 60 minutes, raising the temperature from 120°C to 200°C at a rate of 2°C / min, and holding at 200°C for 10 minutes. It is also preferable to treat the film while irradiating it with ultraviolet light, as described in U.S. Patent No. 9,159,547. Such a pretreatment process can improve the properties of the film. The pretreatment process is preferably carried out for a short time of about 10 seconds to 2 hours, with 15 seconds to 30 minutes being more preferable. The pretreatment process may consist of two or more steps; for example, the first pretreatment step may be carried out in the range of 100 to 150°C, followed by the second pretreatment step in the range of 150 to 200°C. Furthermore, the film may be cooled after heating, and in this case, the cooling rate is preferably 1 to 5°C / min.

[0054] The heating process is preferably carried out in a low-oxygen atmosphere, such as by flowing an inert gas like nitrogen, helium, or argon, or under reduced pressure, in order to prevent the decomposition of specific resins. The oxygen concentration is preferably 50 ppm (by volume) or less, and more preferably 20 ppm (by volume) or less. The heating means in the heating process is not particularly limited, but examples include hot plates, infrared furnaces, electric ovens, hot air ovens, and infrared ovens.

[0055] [Post-exposure step] The organic insulating portion obtained by the organic insulating portion formation step may be subjected to a post-exposure step to expose the organic insulating portion, either in place of the heating step or in addition to the heating step. That is, the method for manufacturing the bonded body of the present invention may include a post-exposure step to expose the organic insulating portion. The method for manufacturing the bonded body of the present invention may include a heating step and a post-exposure step, or it may include only one of the heating step and the post-exposure step. In the post-exposure step, for example, a reaction in which cyclization of polyimide, etc., proceeds by photosensitization of the photobase generator can be promoted. In the post-exposure step, it is sufficient for at least a part of the organic insulating portion to be exposed, but it is preferable for the entire organic insulating portion to be exposed. The amount of exposure in the post-exposure step is 50 to 20,000 mJ / cm in terms of exposure energy at the wavelength to which the photosensitive compound is sensitive. 2Preferably, the concentration is 100 to 15,000 mJ / cm². 2 It is more preferable that this is the case. The post-exposure step can be performed, for example, using the light source in the exposure step described above, and it is preferable to use broadband light.

[0056] [Formation in Two or More Layers] In the organic insulating part formation process, forming the organic insulating part in two or more layers is also one of the preferred embodiments of the present invention. That is, the organic insulating part may have a structure in which multiple layers made of a resin composition are laminated. However, in the formation of the second layer, a part of the first layer may dissolve in the solvent, and the interface between these layers may not be clear. By forming the organic insulating part in two or more layers, the flatness of the surface of the organic insulating part is improved, which has advantages such as making it easier to perform the planarization process described later. In the above embodiment, the organic insulating part is preferably formed in two to four layers, more preferably in two or three layers, and even more preferably in two layers. When forming the organic insulating part in two or more layers, examples include performing the application process (and a drying process if necessary) consecutively, followed by the heating process described above, or repeating the application process (and a drying process if necessary) and the heating process multiple times. Alternatively, for example, the application process (and a drying process if necessary) may be performed consecutively, followed by the exposure process, post-exposure heating process, and development process described above, and then the heating process described above. Furthermore, after performing the above-described application step, and optionally the exposure step, post-exposure heating step, and development step, the above-described heating step may be performed to form the first layer, and then the above-described application step, and optionally the exposure step, post-exposure heating step, and development step may be performed on the first layer, and then the above-described heating step may be performed to form the second and subsequent layers. Moreover, when performing the application step to heating step on the first layer, the conditions of the exposure step, heating step, etc., which are performed as needed, may be adjusted to a semi-cured state, and then the application step to heating step for the second and subsequent layers may be performed further. In addition, when forming the organic insulating part with two or more layers, the components contained in the resin composition used to form each layer and the content ratio of each component may be the same or different.

[0057] <Step of preparing base material B> The method for manufacturing the bonded body of the present invention includes the step of preparing a base material B having a surface equipped with an electrode B.

[0058] The form of substrate B may be a wafer or a chip. These can be selected according to the desired design of the bonded structure.

[0059] [Base material B] Base material B has an electrode B. The thickness of base material B is preferably 0.1 to 5 mm, and more preferably 0.2 to 1 mm. In the bonded body obtained by the bonding process described later, it is preferable that at least a part of the electrode B is electrically bonded to the electrode A in base material A.

[0060] The material used for substrate B is not particularly limited, but the same material as that used for substrate A described above is preferred. The preferred embodiment of electrode B is the same as the preferred embodiment of electrode A. Substrate B may have an electronic circuit region including an electronic circuit. The electronic circuit may have elements such as semiconductors. It is also preferable that the electronic circuit is electrically connected to the electrode. When substrate B is a wafer, the diameter (maximum diameter if substrate B is not circular) can be 100 mm or more. For larger substrates, for example, it is preferable to be 200 mm or more, and more preferably 250 mm or more. There is no particular upper limit, but it is preferable to be 2,000 mm or less. When substrate B is a chip, the diameter (maximum diameter if substrate B is not circular) is preferably 7 mm or more, more preferably 8 mm or more, and even more preferably 10 mm or more. As an upper limit, for example, it is preferable to be 50 mm or less, more preferably 30 mm or less, and even more preferably 20 mm or less.

[0061] Furthermore, it is preferable that the substrate B includes an inorganic insulating film between the electrodes. The inorganic insulating film is not particularly limited, but examples include silicon oxide film, silicon nitride film, silicon oxynitride film (the ratio of oxygen to nitrogen content is not particularly limited), aluminum oxide film, aluminum nitride film, hafnium oxide film, yttrium oxide film, zirconium oxide film, gallium oxide film, tantalum oxide film, magnesium oxide film, lanthanum oxide film, cerium oxide film, neodymium oxide film, silicon carbon nitride (SiCN) film, etc. It is preferable that the inorganic insulating film insulates the multiple electrodes included in electrode B. Furthermore, if the substrate B includes an inorganic insulating film, the second organic insulating part formation step described later may be performed, but it is also possible to omit the second organic insulating part formation step.

[0062] <Second Organic Insulation Formation Step> The method for manufacturing the bonded body of the present invention further includes a second organic insulation formation step of forming a second organic insulation on the surface of the base material B equipped with the electrode B, and it is preferable that the second organic insulation formation step and the bonding step are included in this order. The second organic insulation formation step can be carried out, for example, by the same method as the organic insulation formation step for the base material A described above. Alternatively, other known methods may be used. Here, in the second organic insulation formation step, a resin composition may be used, or another known composition for forming an organic insulation may be used, but it is preferable to use a resin composition. However, when a resin composition is used in the second organic insulation formation step, the composition of the resin composition used in the second organic insulation formation step and the composition of the resin composition used in the organic insulation formation step for the base material A may be the same or different. The preferred embodiment of the second organic insulation is the same as the preferred embodiment of the organic insulation formed on the base material A described above. In the joining process described later, it is believed that the adhesion of the joined body is improved by joining the second organic insulating portion and the organic insulating portion formed on the base material A described above in contact at least in part.

[0063] <Planarization Step> The method for manufacturing the bonded body of the present invention further includes a planarization step of planarizing the surface of the organic insulating portion of the base material A, and the organic insulating portion forming step, the planarization step, and the bonding step may be included in this order. In the bonding step described later, it is preferable that the planarized organic insulating portion on the base material A and the surface of the base material B (or the surface of a second organic insulating portion which may be planarized) are joined in contact.

[0064] As a result of the planarization described above, it is preferable that the electrode A on the substrate A is exposed from the organic insulating portion. Furthermore, in the substrate A and the organic insulating portion after the planarization, the electrode A and the organic insulating portion may be at the same height, the electrode A may be recessed relative to the organic insulating portion, or the organic insulating portion may be recessed relative to the electrode A. Here, the difference in height between the electrode A and the organic insulating portion after planarization is preferably ±1 μm or less, and more preferably ±0.5 μm or less. The planarization may be performed by physical polishing such as cutting, mechanical polishing, grinding, plasma treatment, or laser ablation, or by chemical polishing such as CMP (Chemical Mechanical Polishing). The polishing rate of the organic insulating portion during the planarization is preferably 100 nm / min or more, more preferably 200 nm / min or more, and even more preferably 400 nm / min or more. There is no particular upper limit to the polishing rate, but from the viewpoint of controlling the in-plane uniformity of the polished object, it is preferable to have a rate of less than 3000 nm / min. The polishing rate of electrode A on substrate A during the planarization process is preferably less than or equal to the polishing rate of the organic insulating portion, and more preferably less than or equal to half the polishing rate of the organic insulating portion. The slurry used in the CMP is not particularly limited, but silica slurry, ceria slurry, alumina slurry, etc., can be used. For example, alumina slurry is preferred from the viewpoint of flatness and polishing speed, and silica slurry is preferred from the viewpoint of polishing speed. The particle size of the slurry is not particularly limited, but from the viewpoint of suppressing scratches, an average particle size of 1000 nm or less is preferred, an average particle size of 500 nm or less is more preferred, and an average particle size of 200 nm or less is even more preferred. The lower limit of the particle size of the slurry is not particularly limited, but from the viewpoint of polishing rate, it is preferably 10 nm or more.

[0065] [TTV] In the planarization process, it is preferable that the organic insulating portion is planarized together with electrode A. The degree of planarization is preferably such that the TTV (Total Thickness Variation) of the organic insulating portion and electrode A is 10 μm or less, more preferably 5 μm or less, and even more preferably 3 μm or less. In this invention, TTV refers to the arithmetic mean of the film thickness differences (T1-T2) of the remaining sections. The TTV is calculated by dividing the area 1 mm or more inward from the edge of the organic insulating part into 2 mm square sections (if the area of ​​the organic insulating part is too small to be divided into 2 mm square sections, the entire area 1 mm or more inward from the edge of the organic insulating part is considered one section), measuring the maximum thickness (T1) and the minimum thickness (T2) between one surface and the other surface for each section, calculating the film thickness difference (T1-T2) for each section, assigning a hierarchy to the sections in descending order of film thickness difference (T1-T2), excluding a number of section groups corresponding to 10% of the total number of sections (rounded down if decimal places exist) in descending order of film thickness difference starting from the top-ranked section (largest film thickness difference), and excluding a number of section groups corresponding to 10% of the total number of sections (rounded down if decimal places exist) in descending order of film thickness difference starting from the lowest-ranked section (smallest film thickness difference), and so on. In this specification, the term "section evaluation TTV" may be used when referring specifically to the TTV of the organic insulating portion as defined herein. By setting the TTV of the organic insulating portion to below the above upper limit, the film thickness becomes generally uniform, and the adhesion to the substrate B is improved.

[0066] [Ra] The organic insulating portion of the present invention preferably has a surface roughness Ra of 10 nm or more and 1.5 μm or less on the side opposite to the side in contact with the surface of the substrate A. The upper limit is preferably 1 μm or less, more preferably 500 nm or less, even more preferably 300 nm or less, even more preferably 200 nm or less, even more preferably 150 nm or less, and even more preferably 120 nm or less. By setting the surface roughness of the organic insulating portion to be above the lower limit, an anchoring effect can be activated to improve adhesion with the substrate B. Furthermore, by setting the surface roughness to be below the upper limit, the occurrence of defects such as voids due to the inclusion of bubbles during bonding with the substrate B can be effectively suppressed.

[0067] When forming a second organic insulating portion on substrate B, it is preferable to include a second planarization step between the second organic insulating portion formation step and the joining step, in which the surface of the second organic insulating portion is planarized. The second planarization step can be carried out in the same manner as the planarization step for substrate A described above.

[0068] <Joining Process> The method for manufacturing a joined body of the present invention includes a joining process of joining the surface of the base material A having an organic insulating portion and the surface of the base material B having the electrode B. If the base material B has a second organic insulating portion, the joining process is a process of joining the surface of the base material A having an organic insulating portion and the surface of the base material B having the second organic insulating portion.

[0069] Through bonding, electrode A on substrate A and electrode B on substrate B are electrically joined. In the bonding process, it is also a preferred embodiment of the present invention that the electrode included in the surface of substrate A having an organic insulating portion and the electrode on the surface of substrate B having electrode B are joined in direct contact. That is, it is also preferable that neither electrode A nor electrode B has a conductive path.

[0070] The joining is preferably carried out by means including heating, and more preferably by means including heating and pressurizing. The joining temperature is preferably 100°C or higher, more preferably 150°C or higher, and even more preferably 180°C or higher.

This temperature is preferably near the melting point of the conduit, taking into consideration the need to melt the conduit and enable joining between electrodes, as described above. The heating time in the joining process is not particularly limited, but is preferably 5 seconds or more, more preferably 1 minute or more, and even more preferably 2 minutes or more. The upper limit is practically 30 minutes or less. The heating environment is not particularly limited, but is preferably carried out under a reduced pressure atmosphere while mechanically pressurizing the organic insulating part. The atmospheric pressure is 1 x 10 -5 It is preferable that it be 1 × 10⁻¹⁰ mbar or higher. -4 It is more preferable that it be 5 × 10 mbar or higher. -4 It is even more preferable that it be 0 mbar or higher. Preferably, the upper limit is 0.1 mbar or less, and 1 × 10 -2 It is more preferable that it be less than or equal to mbar, and 5 × 10 -3 It is even more preferable that the pressure be less than or equal to mbar. In this specification, 1 bar is equal to 100 kPa. Bonding is preferably performed by sandwiching two substrates (substrate A and substrate B), and it is preferable to apply pressure to the substrates at this time. The pressure applied to the substrates is preferably 1 kN or more, more preferably 5 kN or more, and even more preferably 10 kN or more. As an upper limit, it is practical to be 100 kN or less. The apparatus used in the bonding process is not particularly limited, but apparatus used for reflow of electronic components can be suitably used.

[0071] Furthermore, in the bonding process, it is preferable that the temperature of the substrate A equipped with the organic insulating portion is preheated to 70°C or higher. Also, if the substrate B includes a second organic insulating portion, it is preferable that the temperature of the substrate B is preheated to 70°C or higher. The above temperature is preferably 70°C or higher, and more preferably 90°C or higher. Furthermore, the upper limit of the above temperature is not particularly limited, but it is preferably 130°C or lower. With the above embodiment, the cycle time of the bonding process can be reduced. In addition, the fluidity of the organic insulating portion during bonding may be improved, and the maximum peel resistance may also be improved.

[0072] The thermal diffusivity of the organic insulation part after the bonding process is 2.0 × 10⁻⁶. -7 I understand 2 s -1 Preferably, it is 3.0 × 10 -7 I understand 2 s -1 It is more preferable that the above be the case, 5.0 × 10 -7 I understand 2 s -1 The above is even more preferable. The thermal diffusivity of the organic insulating part after the bonding process can be adjusted by designing, for example, the type of material of the filler, the particle size of the filler (combination of particle sizes if two or more types of fillers are included), the thermal diffusivity of the filler, the filler content, the structure of the polyimide, the thermal diffusivity of the polyimide, and the polyimide content, if the organic insulating part after the bonding process contains a filler. Fillers will be described later.

[0073] The organic insulating portion after the joining process is preferably an insulating material. The insulating properties (electrical resistance) of the organic insulating portion after the joining process are not particularly limited, but the volume resistivity is 1 × 10⁻⁶. 15 It is preferable that it be Ω·cm or more, and 1 × 10 16 It is more preferable that it be Ω·cm or greater. There is no particular upper limit, but 1 × 10 19It is practical for the volume resistivity to be Ω·cm or less. The dielectric breakdown voltage is preferably 1 kV / mm or more, and more preferably 10 kV / mm or more. There is no particular upper limit, but it is practical for it to be 1000 kV / mm or less. In this specification, the measurement of volume resistivity and dielectric breakdown voltage shall be in accordance with JIS C2151:2006 and JIS C2318:2007.

[0074] Furthermore, the glass transition temperature of the organic insulating portion after the bonding process is preferably 250°C or lower, more preferably 230°C or lower, and even more preferably 220°C or lower. The lower limit of the above glass transition temperature is not particularly limited, but it is preferably 120°C or higher.

[0075] The preferred embodiments of the thermal diffusivity, volume resistivity, dielectric breakdown voltage, and glass transition temperature of the second organic insulating portion after the bonding process are the same as those preferred embodiments of the organic insulating portion after the bonding process described above.

[0076] The cyclization rate of polyimide in the above organic insulating part formation process (i.e., the cyclization rate after the heating process if a heating process is included) is preferably 90% or more, more preferably 92% or more, and even more preferably 95% or more. The upper limit of the above imidization rate is not particularly limited and may be 100% or less. The cyclization rate of polyimide in the organic insulating part formed at the above joint after the bonding process is preferably 91 to 100%, more preferably 94 to 100%, and even more preferably 97 to 100%. In the present invention, the imidization rate is a value calculated by the following method. The resin is dissolved in γ-butyrolactone, diluted to a viscosity of 2,000 mPa·s, and applied to a silicon wafer by spin coating to form a resin layer. If a resin layer cannot be formed due to reasons such as low solubility of the resin in γ-butyrolactone, the solvent may be changed to another solvent. Other solvents may include solvents contained in the resin composition, such as NMP. The viscosity may also be changed as appropriate within an adjustable range. The silicon wafer to which the obtained resin layer has been applied is dried on a hot plate at 110°C for 5 minutes to obtain a uniform resin layer with a thickness of approximately 15 μm on the silicon wafer. If only a resin solution with low viscosity is available, making it difficult to obtain a resin layer with a thickness of 15 μm, the thickness may be adjusted accordingly. For example, if the thickness is 5 μm or more, a similar value for the imidization rate can be obtained. The above resin layer is measured using the ATR method with a Nicoleti S20 (Thermofisher), within a measurement range of 4000–700 cm². -1 The measurement was taken 50 times. 1380 cm -1 Nearby (1350-1450 cm) -1 (If there are multiple peaks, the peak height of the one with the highest peak intensity) and 1500 cm -1 Nearby (1460-1550 cm) -1The imidization index A of the resin is calculated by dividing the value by the peak height of the peak with the highest peak intensity (if there are multiple peaks). For a film heated at 350°C for 1 hour under a nitrogen atmosphere at a heating rate of 10°C / min, the imidization index B is calculated using the same method, and the imidization rate of the resin is calculated by dividing the imidization index A by the imidization index B.

[0077] <Annealing Process> The annealing process is a heating process that may be incorporated after the bonding process (for example, bonding by a flip-chip bonder). The annealing process can increase the peel resistance of the bonded portion. The heating means are not particularly limited, but heating equipment such as a hot plate or oven can be used. The heating temperature in the annealing process is preferably lower than or equal to the bonding temperature in the bonding process. The heating temperature in the annealing process is preferably 180 to 440°C, more preferably 200 to 350°C, and even more preferably 210 to 260°C. The heating temperature in the annealing process may also be determined by considering the bonding temperature in the bonding process and the heating temperature in the heating process.

There is no particular upper limit, but for example, it is preferably 250°C or less, and more preferably 200°C or less. When performing the above heating process, the heating temperature in the annealing process is preferably higher than or equal to the heating temperature (maximum heating temperature) in the above heating process.

The difference between the heating time in the annealing process and the heating time in the bonding process (heating time in the annealing process - heating time in the bonding process) is preferably 30 minutes or more.

The atmosphere during heating is under Air, N 2The heating equipment can be appropriately selected from available options, such as under vacuum or below. The ambient pressure is not particularly limited, but it is preferable to carry it out at 1 atmosphere or less, and more preferably within 1 atmosphere ± 0.1 atmosphere. 1 atmosphere is defined as 101,325 Pa. For example, it can be carried out at atmospheric pressure without any special pressurization or depressurization. The imidization rate after the annealing process is preferably, for example, 98% or more. The upper limit is not particularly limited, and it is also preferable for it to be, for example, 100%.

[0078] [Other Processes] The method for manufacturing the bonded body of the present invention does not preclude the inclusion of other processes between the processes specified above. Furthermore, although the explanation has mainly focused on an example in which base material A and base material B are joined by facing each other face to face as the joining process, a configuration in which multiple base material B are arranged in parallel with base material A and bonded together is also possible. Alternatively, a configuration in which base material A and base material B of a suitable thickness are placed side by side and their sides are joined together is also possible.

[0079] <Example of a Method for Manufacturing a Joined Body> Below, an example of a method for manufacturing a joined body will be explained with reference to the figures. Figure 1 is a schematic cross-sectional diagram illustrating a part of the process when bonding a substrate in a method for manufacturing a joined body according to one embodiment of the present invention. First, a substrate A (base substrate) 1 is prepared in which an electronic circuit region 8 is arranged on a silicon wafer 1x and an electrode 31 (electrode A) is attached thereto (Figure 1(a)). An electronic circuit 81 composed of a conductor or semiconductor has already been formed inside the electronic circuit region 8 of the substrate A1. The method for forming the electronic circuit is not particularly limited and can be formed by conventional methods. Furthermore, the structure and components of the electronic circuit are not particularly limited, and examples include a transistor and a wiring structure that connects it to the electrode.

[0080] A resin composition is applied to the electrode-placed surface (surface having an electronic circuit region) P0 of the substrate A1 to form a component (resin composition film) 4 made of the resin composition (Figure 1(b)). In this state, the resin composition film may be heated and dried (drying step). Here, the film thickness d1 of the resin composition film 4 is 1.5 times or more the height d2 of the electrode A. After drying, the resin composition layer 4 may be patterned by photolithography or ion sputtering.

[0081] Subsequently, in this embodiment, the film thickness of the resin composition layer 4 is reduced with an organic solvent. Then, heating is performed to promote polymerization and, if necessary, cyclization, to cure the polyimide into an organic insulating part 41 (Figure 1(c)). This forms an organic insulating part-distributed substrate 1y on which the organic insulating part 41 is disposed on the substrate A1. In addition, although the substrate A shown in the figure has only an electrode 31 as electrode A, a guide channel may be formed on the electrode 31. The guide channel may be formed on the substrate A from the beginning, or the organic insulating part may be patterned before curing, and the guide channel may be created on the patterned part by plating or other means.

[0082] Figures 2(a) to 2(c) show the substrate (laminated structure) 1z with the organic insulating portion after flattening. The tip 31a of the electrode 31 is exposed on the surface 4b of the organic insulating portion, and the entire surface 4b of the organic insulating portion is flattened. Figure 2(a) shows an example where the height of the electrode 31 and the height of the surface 4b of the organic insulating portion are the same, Figure 2(b) shows an example where the height of the surface 4b of the organic insulating portion is lower than the height of the electrode 31, and Figure 2(c) shows an example where the height of the surface 4b of the organic insulating portion is higher than the height of the electrode 31.

[0083] A substrate B is prepared separately for the laminate (a substrate with a planarized organic insulating portion) 1z (Figure 3(a)). The substrate B2 comprises a silicon wafer 2x having through-hole electrodes 2y, a circuit wiring region 8 having circuit wiring 81 arranged thereon, and electrodes 32 (electrodes B) formed within the circuit wiring region 8. In this embodiment, a second organic insulating portion 42 is also formed on the surface of the substrate B having electrodes B, and its surface 2a is planarized in the same way as the surface of the organic insulating portion 41 on the substrate A. The formation and planarization of the second organic insulating portion 42 can be carried out in the same way as the formation and planarization of the organic insulating portion 41. In this way, because the surfaces of the organic insulating portion 41 and electrodes 31 of the substrate A and the surfaces of the second organic insulating portion 42 and electrodes 32 of the substrate B are both planarized, electrical connectivity is improved even when there are no conductive passages as in the embodiment shown in this figure. At this time, the electrode 31 portion of the laminate and the electrode 32 provided on the substrate B2 are aligned (positioned) so that they come into contact. Here, if at least one of the organic insulating portion 41 and the second organic insulating portion 42 contains a migration inhibitor, even if misalignment occurs in this alignment, the migration of metal from the electrode 31 (electrode 32) to the organic insulating portion 41 (second organic insulating portion 42) can be suppressed, and the dielectric strength can be improved. In the case of electrode B, a conductive passage may also be formed on electrode 32. The conductive passage may be formed in the substrate B from the beginning, or the second organic insulating portion may be patterned before hardening, and the conductive passage may be created in the patterned portion by plating or the like.

[0084] Next, in this embodiment, the aligned substrate B2 and the laminate 1z are joined by contacting them at the joining surface P1 via the organic insulating portion 41 and the second organic insulating portion 42 (Figure 3(b)). This forms a joined body 100 in which two substrates are joined. In the joined body 100, the electrode 31 and the electrode 32 are electrically joined (joining process). At the same time, the organic insulating portion 41 is softened by heating, and the surface 4b of the organic insulating portion of the laminate 1z and the surface 2a of the substrate B (the flattened surface of the second organic insulating portion 42) are bonded together to form the joined body 100. In the joined body 100, an organic insulating portion 51 is formed from the organic insulating portion 41 and the second organic insulating portion 42, including the organic insulating portion after the joining process and the second organic insulating portion after the joining process.

The above total content is more preferably 70 mol% or more, even more preferably 90 mol% or more, and particularly preferably more than 90 mol%. The upper limit of the above total content is not particularly limited, and all repeating units in the polyimide precursor except for the terminals may be repeating units represented by formula (2).

The lower limit of the above imidization rate is not particularly limited and may be 0% or more.

[0108] In this invention, the imidization rate is a value calculated by the following method. The resin is dissolved in γ-butyrolactone, diluted to a viscosity of 2,000 mPa·s, and applied to a silicon wafer by spin coating to form a resin layer. If a resin layer cannot be formed due to reasons such as low solubility of the resin in γ-butyrolactone, the solvent may be changed to another solvent. Other solvents that can be used include solvents contained in the resin composition, such as NMP. The viscosity may also be changed as appropriate within an adjustable range. The silicon wafer to which the obtained resin layer has been applied is dried on a hot plate at 110°C for 5 minutes to obtain a resin layer with a uniform thickness of approximately 15 μm after film formation on the silicon wafer. Here, if only a resin solution with low viscosity can be obtained, and it is difficult to obtain a resin layer with a thickness of 15 μm, the film thickness may be changed as appropriate. For example, if the film thickness is 5 μm or more, a similar value for the imidization rate can be obtained. The above resin layer was measured using the ATR method with Nicoleti S20 (manufactured by Thermofisher), with a measurement range of 4000-700 cm. -1 The measurement was taken 50 times. 1380 cm -1 Nearby (1350-1450 cm) -1 (If there are multiple peaks, the peak height of the one with the highest peak intensity) and 1500 cm -1 Nearby (1460-1550 cm) -1 The imidization index A of the resin is calculated by dividing the value by the peak height of the peak with the maximum peak intensity (if there are multiple peaks) and heating the film at 350°C for 1 hour under a nitrogen atmosphere at a heating rate of 10°C / min. The imidization index B is calculated in the same manner and the value obtained by dividing the imidization index A by the imidization index B is calculated as the imidization rate of the resin. In measuring the imidization rate, the resin to be measured for imidization rate can be obtained from the composition by, for example, the following method: A solution of 1 g of the composition and 2 g of tetrahydrofuran is added to 50 g of methanol or water and crystallized to precipitate the resin, which is then filtered. The filtrate is collected, dissolved in 3.0 g of THF (tetrahydrofuran), added to 50 g of methanol or water and crystallized, filtered, and dried at 40°C for 20 hours to obtain the resin.

The molecular weight dispersion of the above polyimide precursor is preferably 1.5 or higher, more preferably 1.8 or higher, and even more preferably 2.0 or higher. There is no particular upper limit for the molecular weight dispersion of the polyimide precursor, but for example, it is preferably 7.0 or lower, more preferably 6.5 or lower, and even more preferably 6.0 or lower.

[0215] <Migration Inhibitor> The resin composition preferably further contains a migration inhibitor. By including a migration inhibitor, for example, when the resin composition is applied to a metal layer (or metal wiring) to form a film, the migration of metal ions originating from the metal layer (or metal wiring) into the film can be effectively suppressed.

[0217] As migration inhibitors, ion trapping agents that capture anions such as halogen ions can also be used.

[0218] Other migration inhibitors that can be used include the rust inhibitor described in paragraph 0094 of Japanese Patent Publication No. 2013-015701, the compounds described in paragraphs 0073 to 0076 of Japanese Patent Publication No. 2009-283711, the compounds described in paragraph 0052 of Japanese Patent Publication No. 2011-059656, the compounds described in paragraphs 0114, 0116 and 0118 of Japanese Patent Publication No. 2012-194520, and the compounds described in paragraph 0166 of International Publication No. 2015 / 199219, the details of which are incorporated herein by reference.

[0219] Specific examples of migration inhibitors include the following compounds.

[0220]

[0221] If the resin composition contains a migration inhibitor, the content of the migration inhibitor is preferably 0.01 to 5.0% by mass, more preferably 0.05 to 2.0% by mass, and even more preferably 0.1 to 1.0% by mass, based on the total solid content of the resin composition.

[0222] There may be only one type of migration inhibitor, or there may be two or more types. If there are two or more types of migration inhibitors, it is preferable that their total number is within the above range.

[0223] <Polymerization Inhibitors> The resin composition preferably contains a polymerization inhibitor. Examples of polymerization inhibitors include phenolic compounds, quinone compounds, amino compounds, N-oxyl free radical compounds, nitro compounds, nitroso compounds, heteroaromatic compounds, and metal compounds.

[0224] Specific examples of polymerization inhibitors include the compounds described in paragraph 0310 of International Publication No. 2021 / 112189, p-hydroquinone, o-hydroquinone, 4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine 1-oxyl free radical, phenoxazine, 1,4,4-trimethyl-2,3-diazabicyclo[3.2.2]nona-2-ene-N,N-dioxide, and the like. This information is incorporated herein by reference.

[0225] If the resin composition contains a polymerization inhibitor, the content of the polymerization inhibitor is preferably 0.01 to 20% by mass, more preferably 0.02 to 15% by mass, and even more preferably 0.05 to 10% by mass, based on the total solid content of the resin composition.

[0227] <Light Absorbers> The resin composition may also preferably contain a compound (light absorber) whose absorbance at the exposure wavelength decreases upon exposure. Examples of light absorbers include the compounds described in paragraphs 0159 to 0183 of International Publication No. 2022 / 202647 and the compounds described in paragraphs 0088 to 0108 of Japanese Patent Publication No. 2019-206689. These contents are incorporated herein by reference.

[0228] The content of the light absorber relative to the total solid content of the resin composition is not particularly limited, but is preferably 0.1 to 20% by mass, more preferably 0.5 to 10% by mass, and even more preferably 1 to 5% by mass.

[0229] [Surfactants] The resin composition preferably contains a surfactant. Various surfactants can be used, such as fluorine-based surfactants, silicone-based surfactants, and hydrocarbon-based surfactants. The surfactant may be a nonionic surfactant, a cationic surfactant, or an anionic surfactant.

[0230] By incorporating a surfactant into the resin composition, the liquid properties (especially fluidity) of the composition are improved, leading to improved uniformity of coating thickness and reduced liquid consumption, as well as increased conformability of the composition to uneven surfaces. Specifically, when forming a film using a coating solution containing a surfactant, the interfacial tension between the surface to be coated and the coating solution decreases, improving wettability to the surface and enhancing coatability. As a result, air bubbles are less likely to be incorporated into uneven areas, and a more uniform film with less thickness variation can be formed more effectively.

[0231] Examples of silicone-based surfactants, hydrocarbon-based surfactants, nonionic surfactants, cationic surfactants, and anionic surfactants include the compounds described in paragraphs 0329-0334 of International Publication No. 2021 / 112189, respectively, which are incorporated herein by reference.

[0232] One type of surfactant may be used, or two or more types may be used in combination. The surfactant content is preferably 0.001 to 2.0% by mass, and more preferably 0.005 to 1.0% by mass, relative to the total solid content of the composition. This will be incorporated into the specification.

[0233] <Other Additives> The resin composition may optionally contain various additives, such as higher fatty acid derivatives, inorganic particles, ultraviolet absorbers, organotitanium compounds, antioxidants, photoacid generators, anti-aggregation agents, phenolic compounds, other polymer compounds, plasticizers, and other auxiliary agents (e.g., defoamers, flame retardants, etc.), to the extent that the effects of the present invention can be obtained. By appropriately including these components, properties such as film properties can be adjusted. These components can be described, for example, in paragraphs 0183 onwards of Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2012-003225 (paragraph 0237 of the corresponding US Patent Application Publication No. 2013 / 0034812), paragraphs 0101 to 0104, 0107 to 0109 of Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2008-250074, and the contents of these are incorporated herein. When these additives are included, their total content is preferably 3% by mass or less of the solid content of the resin composition.

[0234] <Characteristics of the Resin Composition> The viscosity of the resin composition can be adjusted by the solid content concentration of the resin composition. From the viewpoint of coating film thickness, 1,000 mm 2 / s~12,000mm 2 / s is preferred, and 2,000 mm 2 / s~10,000mm 2 / s is more preferable, 2,500 mm 2 / s~8,000mm 2 / s is even more preferable. Within the above range, it becomes easier to obtain a highly uniform coating film. 1,000 mm 2If the temperature is 1 / s or higher, it is easy to coat the film with the required thickness, for example, as an insulating film for rewiring, and 12,000 mm 2 If the rate is less than or equal to / s, an excellent coating film can be obtained on the coated surface.

[0235] <Restrictions on the substances contained in the resin composition> The water content of the resin composition is preferably less than 2.0% by mass, more preferably less than 1.5% by mass, and even more preferably less than 1.0% by mass. If it is less than 2.0%, the storage stability of the resin composition is improved. Methods for maintaining the water content include adjusting the humidity under storage conditions and reducing the porosity of the storage container during storage.

[0236] From the viewpoint of insulating properties, the metal content of the resin composition is preferably less than 5 ppm by mass (parts per million), more preferably less than 1 ppm by mass, and even more preferably less than 0.5 ppm by mass. Examples of metals include sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium, iron, copper, chromium, and nickel, but excludes metals included as complexes between organic compounds and metals. If multiple metals are included, it is preferable that the sum of these metals is within the above range.

[0237] Furthermore, methods for reducing metal impurities unintentionally included in resin compositions include selecting raw materials with low metal content as components of the resin composition, filtering the raw materials of the resin composition, and performing distillation under conditions that suppress contamination as much as possible by lining the apparatus with polytetrafluoroethylene or the like.

[0238] When considering the application of the resin composition as a semiconductor material, the halogen atom content is preferably less than 500 ppm by mass, more preferably less than 300 ppm by mass, and even more preferably less than 200 ppm by mass, from the viewpoint of preventing wiring corrosion. In particular, the halogen atoms present in the form of halogen ions are preferably less than 5 ppm by mass, more preferably less than 1 ppm by mass, and even more preferably less than 0.5 ppm by mass. Examples of halogen atoms include chlorine atoms and bromine atoms. It is preferable that the total amount of chlorine atoms and bromine atoms, or chloride ions and bromine ions, is within the above ranges. A preferred method for adjusting the halogen atom content is ion exchange treatment.

[0239] Conventional containers can be used as containers for the resin composition. To suppress the incorporation of impurities into the raw materials and resin composition, it is also preferable to use multilayer bottles with an inner wall constructed of six types of resin in six layers, or bottles with a seven-layer structure of six types of resin. Examples of such containers include the container described in Japanese Patent Application Publication No. 2015-123351.

[0240] <Preparation of Resin Composition> The resin composition can be prepared by mixing the above components. The mixing method is not particularly limited and can be carried out by conventionally known methods. Mixing methods include mixing with a stirring blade, mixing with a ball mill, and mixing by rotating a tank. The temperature during mixing is preferably 10 to 30°C, and more preferably 15 to 25°C.

[0241] To remove foreign matter such as dust and fine particles from the resin composition, filtration using a filter is preferable. As a filter, for example, the filter described in paragraph 0287 of International Publication No. 2023 / 190064 can be used. This description is incorporated herein by reference.

The mixture is stirred at 60°C for 4 hours to produce a mixture of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate and 2-isobutoxyethanol diesters of 4,4'-oxydiphthalic anhydride and 3,3',4,4'-biphenyltetracarboxylic anhydride. Next, the reaction mixture was cooled to -10°C, and while maintaining the temperature at -10±4°C, 16.14 g (134.1 mmol) of SOCl was added. 2After adding over 60 minutes, the reaction mixture is stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. Next, a solution of 12.06 g (56.8 mmol) of 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl ether dissolved in 100 mL of N-methylpyrrolidone is added dropwise to the reaction mixture over 60 minutes at -5 to 0°C. Then, the reaction mixture is reacted at 15°C for 1 hour, after which 11.9 g of ethanol is added and the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 2 hours.

[0247] [Synthesis Examples P-2 to P-4: Synthesis of Resins P-2 to P-4] These resins were synthesized in the same manner as the synthesis of resin P-1 described above, except that the acid anhydride, diamine, and alcohol used were changed as shown in the table below.

[0248]

[0249] Details of the abbreviations in the table are as follows:

[0250] [Synthesis Example P-5: Synthesis of Resin P-5] 208.7 g (401 mmol) of 4,4'-(4,4'-isopropylidene diphenoxy)diphthalic anhydride, 6.55 g (21.1 mmol) of 4,4'-oxydiphthalic anhydride, and 345 mL of N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) were mixed in a 3 L flask. To this, a solution of 25.0 g (116 mmol) of 3,3'-dihydroxybenzidine, 54.0 g (270 mmol) of 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl ether, and 8.19 g (75.0 mmol) of 4-aminophenol, pre-dissolved in 970 g of NMP, was added dropwise. After the dropwise addition was complete, 144 ml of toluene was added and the mixture was stirred at 180°C for 4 hours. After the reaction was complete, the mixture was cooled to room temperature. Then, 5.92 g of 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine 1-oxyl free radical, 161 g (1055 mmol) of p-chloromethylstyrene, 175 g (1266 mmol) of potassium carbonate, 21.0 g (127 mmol) of potassium iodide, and 438 g of NMP were added, and the mixture was stirred at 90°C for 2 hours. After the reaction was complete, the mixture was cooled to room temperature, diluted with 3500 ml of THF, and filtered by suction filtration. The filtrate was added dropwise to 8800 mL of methanol to precipitate the polymer. The polymer collected by filtration was dried under reduced pressure at 40°C for 1 day to obtain resin (P-1) as a powder. The weight-average molecular weight of the obtained resin (P-1) was 24,600, and the number-average molecular weight was 9,900. Resin (P-1) is a resin having repeating units represented by the following formula (P-1). The structure of the repeating unit is: 1 The structure was determined from the 1H-NMR spectrum. In the structure below, the subscripts of the repeating units represent the molar ratio of each repeating unit.

[0251] [Synthesis Example P-6: Synthesis of Resin P-6] In a drying reactor equipped with a stirrer, condenser, and flat-bottom joint with an internal thermometer, 10.65 g (50 mmol) of 4,6-dihydroxy-1,3-phenylenediamine dihydrochloride was dissolved in 85.8 g of N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) while removing water. Next, 9.74 g (48 mmol) of terephthalic acid chloride dissolved in 55.0 g of NMP was added dropwise over 1 hour, and the mixture was stirred at 25°C for a constant time. By increasing the constant time, the molar amount of benzoxazole structure in the polybenzoxazole precursor can be increased, and by shortening the time, the molar amount of benzoxazole structure in the polybenzoxazole precursor can be decreased. For example, by setting the time to 15 minutes, the molar amount of benzoxazole structure can be set to 0.373 mmol / g. After stirring, the mixture was precipitated in 2 liters of water / methanol = 75 / 25 (volume ratio) and stirred at 2,000 rpm for 30 minutes. The precipitated polybenzoxazole precursor resin was removed by filtration and washed with 1.5 liters of water. The resulting resin was dried under reduced pressure at 40°C for 1 day to obtain P-6.

[0252] [Synthesis Example P-7: Synthesis of Resin P-7] 29.08 g of trimellitic anhydride was placed in a separable flask, 19.85 g of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) and 136.83 g of γ-butyrolactone were added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature. While stirring, 24.66 g of pyridine was added to obtain the reaction mixture. After the exothermic reaction was complete, the mixture was allowed to cool to room temperature and left at room temperature for 16 hours. Next, under ice cooling, a solution of 62.46 g of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) dissolved in 61.57 g of γ-butyrolactone was added to the reaction mixture over 40 minutes while stirring. Subsequently, 27.42 g of 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl ether (DADPE) suspended in 119.73 g of γ-butyrolactone was added over 60 minutes while stirring. After further stirring at room temperature for a certain period of time, 7.17 g of ethyl alcohol was added and the mixture was stirred for 1 hour, followed by the addition of 136.83 g of γ-butyrolactone. The precipitate formed in the reaction mixture was removed by filtration to obtain the reaction solution. The obtained reaction solution was added to 716.21 g of ethyl alcohol to produce a precipitate consisting of crude polymer. The produced crude polymer was filtered off and dissolved in 403.49 g of tetrahydrofuran to obtain a crude polymer solution. The obtained crude polymer solution was added dropwise to 8470.26 g of water to precipitate the polymer, and the resulting precipitate was filtered off and then vacuum dried to obtain powdered polymer (polyamide-imide precursor) P-7.

In the example where "alumina" was indicated, an alumina slurry (Polifine A100-Type MX manufactured by Kemet Japan) was used, and in the example where "silica" was indicated, a silica slurry was used to form the organic insulating layer. The time from the start of the above film thickness reduction treatment to the formation of the organic insulating layer is indicated in the "Process Time (sec)" column. The process time was also evaluated according to the following evaluation criteria, and the evaluation results are indicated in the "Process Time (sec)" column of the table. -Evaluation Criteria- A: The process time was 100 seconds or less.

Ten bonded bodies were produced in each example by performing the same bonding procedure. Subsequently, void evaluation was performed by cross-sectional SEM observation of the wiring section. The evaluation was performed according to the following evaluation criteria, and the evaluation results are recorded in the "Large Pitch Voids" column of the table. -Evaluation Criteria- A: 0 chips with voids B: 1 chip with voids C: 2 or more chips with voids

[0271] [Biased HAST (Highly Accelerated Stress Test) Test] A biased HAST test was performed in each example and each comparative example. The biased HAST test was performed using a simple test vehicle 100 as shown in Figure 6. Figure 6 is a schematic cross-sectional view of the test vehicle used in the biased HAST test. The test vehicle 100 has SiO on a Si wafer (silicon wafer) 102. 2 Layer 104, a patterned Ti layer 106, and patterned 2 μm L / S (line and space) comb-shaped copper wiring 108 are stacked in this order, and the wiring is covered with cured products 110 of each composition.

The voltage applied during the HAST test was 15V, and the test was determined by whether or not there was a short circuit in the wiring during the test. The electrical resistance value was 10 5A short circuit was determined when the resistance fell below Ω. The evaluation results are recorded in the "Reliability" column of the table. -Evaluation Criteria- A: No short circuit was detected in the wiring at 96 hours. B: A short circuit was detected in the wiring between 61 hours and 96 hours. C: A short circuit was detected in the wiring between 31 hours and 61 hours. D: A short circuit was detected in less than 31 hours.

[0272] From the above results, it can be seen that the method for manufacturing a bonded body according to the present invention can shorten the time required for the polishing process in the manufacturing of the bonded body and suppress the generation of voids. The method for manufacturing a bonded body according to Comparative Example 1 does not include a removal step. In such a manufacturing method, it can be seen that the time required for the polishing process is long and voids are generated. Furthermore, in the method for manufacturing a bonded body according to Comparative Example 2, the thickness of the resin composition film is about 1.3 times the height of electrode A (8 μm / 6 μm). In such an embodiment, it can be seen that voids are likely to be generated.
