Description

Photosensitive resin composition, photosensitive resin film, printed circuit board and method for manufacturing the same, and semiconductor package

[0001] This embodiment relates to a photosensitive resin composition, a photosensitive resin film, a printed circuit board, a method for manufacturing the same, and a semiconductor package.

[0002] In recent years, electronic devices have become smaller and more high-performance, leading to increased density in printed circuit boards through an increase in the number of circuit layers and miniaturization of wiring. In particular, the density of semiconductor package substrates such as BGA (Ball Grid Array) and CSP (Chip Size Package), on which semiconductor chips are mounted, is remarkable. This requires not only miniaturization of wiring but also thinning of the insulating layer and further reduction in the diameter of vias used for interlayer connections.

[0003] A conventional method for manufacturing printed circuit boards (PCBs) is the build-up method (see, for example, Patent Document 1), in which an interlayer insulating layer and a conductor layer are sequentially laminated. In PCBs, with the miniaturization of wiring, the semi-additive method, in which the conductor layer is formed by plating, has become mainstream. In the conventional semi-additive method, for example, (1) a thermosetting resin film is laminated onto the conductor layer, and then the thermosetting resin film is cured by heating to form an "interlayer insulating layer". (2) Next, vias for interlayer connection are formed by laser processing, and then desmear treatment and roughening treatment are performed by alkaline permanganate treatment, etc. (3) After that, electroless copper plating is applied to the substrate, a pattern is formed using a resist, and then copper circuits, which are the conductor layers, are formed by electroplating. (4) Subsequently, after peeling off the resist, the copper circuits are formed by flash etching of the electroless plated layer.

[0004] As mentioned above, laser processing is the mainstream method for forming vias in the interlayer insulating layer formed by curing thermosetting resin film, but the ability to reduce the diameter of vias by laser irradiation using a laser processing machine is reaching its limits. Furthermore, when forming vias with a laser processing machine, it is necessary to form each via hole one by one, and when a large number of vias are required for high density, it takes a lot of time to form the vias, resulting in poor manufacturing efficiency.

[0005] Under these circumstances, a method has been proposed for forming multiple small-diameter vias simultaneously by photolithography using a photosensitive resin composition containing an acid-modified vinyl group-containing epoxy resin, a photopolymerizable compound, a photopolymerization initiator, an inorganic filler, and a silane compound, wherein the inorganic filler content is 10 to 80% by mass (see, for example, Patent Document 2).

[0006] Japanese Patent Publication No. 7-304931 Japanese Patent Publication No. 2017-116652

[0007] When forming vias using photolithography, a short development time (hereinafter, this short development time is referred to as "developability") is required to improve productivity. Furthermore, if the tack of the photosensitive layer or the surface of the photosensitive resin film formed from the photosensitive resin composition is high, it can lead to contamination of the manufacturing equipment and difficulty in peeling the protective film from the photosensitive resin film, resulting in decreased productivity. Therefore, photosensitive resin compositions are required to have reduced tack.

[0008] In view of the current situation, this embodiment aims to provide a photosensitive resin composition with excellent developability and suppressed tack, a photosensitive resin film using the photosensitive resin composition, a printed circuit board and a method for manufacturing the same, and a semiconductor package.

[0010] According to the present embodiment, it is possible to provide a photosensitive resin composition excellent in developability and having suppressed tack, a photosensitive resin film using the photosensitive resin composition, a printed wiring board and a method for manufacturing the same, and a semiconductor package.

[0011] It is a schematic diagram showing an aspect of a manufacturing process of a printed wiring board using the photosensitive resin film of the present embodiment as a material for an interlayer insulating layer.

[0012] In the numerical ranges described in this specification, the lower limit value and the upper limit value of the numerical range may be replaced with the values shown in the examples. Further, the lower limit value and the upper limit value of the numerical range can be arbitrarily combined with the lower limit value or the upper limit value of other numerical ranges, respectively. In the notation of the numerical range "AA to BB", the numerical values AA and BB at both ends are included in the numerical range as the lower limit value and the upper limit value, respectively.

[0013] In this specification, for example, the description "10 or more" means 10 and numerical values exceeding 10, and the same applies when the numerical values are different. Further, for example, the description "10 or less" means 10 and numerical values less than 10, and the same applies when the numerical values are different.

[0014] In this specification, the content of each component means the total content of a plurality of substances corresponding to each component, unless otherwise specified, when there are a plurality of substances corresponding to each component.

[0015] In this specification, "solid content" means non-volatile components excluding volatile substances such as solvents, and includes those that are liquid at room temperature. Here, room temperature in this specification means 25°C.

[0016] In this specification, "resin component" means a resin and a compound that forms a resin by a curing reaction. In the photosensitive resin composition of the present embodiment, for example, the components (A), (B), (C), (D), and (E) described later correspond to the resin component, and the components (F), (G), and (H) do not correspond to the resin component.

[0017] In this specification, the "number of carbon atoms forming a ring" refers to the number of carbon atoms necessary to form a ring, and does not include the number of carbon atoms of the substituents that the ring has. For example, for both the cyclohexane skeleton and the methylcyclohexane skeleton, the number of carbon atoms forming a ring is 6.

[0018] The notation "(meth)acrylic XX" means one or both of acrylic XX and the corresponding methacrylic XX. Further, the "(meth)acryloyl group" means one or both of the acryloyl group and the methacryloyl group.

[0019] In this specification, for example, when it is described as a "layer" such as an interlayer insulating layer, etc., in addition to the aspect of a solid layer, aspects where it is not a solid layer, where part is in an island shape, where holes are open, and where the interface with an adjacent layer is unclear, etc. are also included in the "layer".

[0020] The weight average molecular weight (Mw) and number average molecular weight (Mn) in this specification mean values measured in terms of polystyrene conversion by gel permeation chromatography (GPC; Gel Permeation Chromatography). Specifically, the weight average molecular weight (Mw) in this specification can be measured by the method described in the examples.

[0021] The mechanism of action described in this specification is a speculation and does not limit the mechanism by which the effects of this embodiment are achieved.

[0022] Aspects in which the matters described in this specification are arbitrarily combined are also included in this embodiment.

[0023] [Photosensitive Resin Composition] The photosensitive resin composition of this embodiment is a photosensitive resin composition containing: (A) a photopolymerizable compound having an ethylenically unsaturated group and an acidic substituent and having a weight average molecular weight (Mw) of less than 6000; and (B) a photopolymerizable compound having an ethylenically unsaturated group and an acidic substituent and having a weight average molecular weight (Mw) of 6000 or more.

[0024] In this specification, each component may be appropriately abbreviated and referred to as "(component A)", "(component B)", etc.

[0025] The reason why the photosensitive resin composition of this embodiment exhibits excellent developability and suppressed tack is not entirely clear, but it is presumed that the excellent developability is due to the fact that both component (A) and component (B) contained in the photosensitive resin composition of this embodiment have acidic substituents, and component (B) is a compound with a relatively large molecular weight, thus suppressing tack.

[0026] The photosensitive resin composition of this embodiment can form patterns such as vias by exposure and development. Therefore, the photosensitive resin composition of this embodiment is suitable for use in forming interlayer insulating layers having photovias. In this specification, "photovia" means a via formed by photolithography, i.e., exposure and development. Furthermore, the photosensitive resin composition of this embodiment is suitable for negative-type photosensitive resin compositions. Moreover, the photosensitive resin composition of this embodiment is also useful as a surface protective film such as solder resist.

Component (A) may be used alone or in combination of two or more. In the photosensitive resin composition of this embodiment, compounds that satisfy the requirements of both component (A) and component (B), and compounds that satisfy the requirements of both component (A) and component (C), shall be classified as component (A).

[0028] Component (A) is a compound that exhibits photopolymerization, particularly radical polymerization, because it has an ethylenically unsaturated group.

When the acid value of component (A) is above the lower limit, the developability tends to be superior. Also, when the acid value of component (A) is below the upper limit, the dielectric properties tend to be superior. The acid value of component (A) can be measured by the method described in the examples.

[0031] The weight-average molecular weight (Mw) of component (A) is less than 6000 from the viewpoint of developability.

When the weight-average molecular weight (Mw) of component (A) is above the lower limit, it tends to suppress tack more effectively. Also, when the weight-average molecular weight (Mw) of component (A) is below the upper limit, it tends to have superior developability.

[0032] Component (A) preferably contains an alicyclic skeleton from the viewpoint of dielectric properties.

Component (B) may be used alone or in combination of two or more.

[0057] Component (B) is a compound that exhibits photopolymerizability, particularly radical polymerization, because it has an ethylenically unsaturated group.

[0111] The method for manufacturing a printed circuit board according to this embodiment is not particularly limited as long as it uses the photosensitive resin film of this embodiment, but a method for manufacturing a printed circuit board that includes the following (1) to (4) is preferred. (1): Laminating the photosensitive resin film of this embodiment to one or both sides of a circuit board (hereinafter also referred to as the "laminating step (1)"). (2): Forming an interlayer insulating layer having vias by exposing and developing the photosensitive resin film laminated in (1) (hereinafter also referred to as the "via formation step (2)"). (3): Heat curing the interlayer insulating layer having vias (hereinafter also referred to as the "heat curing step (3)"). (4): Forming a circuit pattern on the interlayer insulating layer (hereinafter also referred to as the "circuit pattern formation step (4)").

[0112] The method for manufacturing a printed circuit board according to this embodiment will be described below with reference to Figure 1 as appropriate. In this specification, for convenience, certain operations may be referred to as "step XX," but "step XX" is not limited to the embodiments specifically described herein.

[0113] (Laminating process (1)) In laminating process (1), the photosensitive resin film of this embodiment is laminated to one or both sides of the circuit board. Figure 1(a) illustrates the process of forming a photosensitive layer 103 on both sides of a substrate 101 having a circuit pattern 102. The photosensitive layer 103 can be formed by laminating the photosensitive resin film of this embodiment to both sides of the substrate 101. Lamination can be performed, for example, by pressing and heating using a vacuum laminator. If a carrier film is attached to the photosensitive layer 103 after lamination, the carrier film may be peeled off before exposure, as described later, or after exposure.

[0114] (Via formation process (2)) In via formation process (2), an interlayer insulating layer having vias is formed by exposing and developing the photosensitive layer formed in lamination process (1). Figure 1(b) illustrates the process of forming an interlayer insulating layer 104 having vias 105 by exposing and developing the photosensitive layer 103. Exposing the photosensitive layer 103 initiates a photoradical polymerization reaction, thereby curing the photosensitive resin film.

[0115] The method for exposing the photosensitive layer 103 may be, for example, a mask exposure method in which active light is irradiated in an image pattern through a negative or positive mask pattern called artwork, or a direct drawing exposure method such as LDI (Laser Direct Imaging) exposure or DLP (Digital Light Processing) exposure, in which active light is irradiated in an image pattern. Examples of light sources for the active light include gas lasers such as carbon arc lamps, mercury vapor arc lamps, high-pressure mercury lamps, xenon lamps, and argon lasers; solid-state lasers such as YAG lasers; and known light sources such as semiconductor lasers that effectively emit ultraviolet or visible light. The exposure amount can be appropriately adjusted depending on the light source used and the thickness of the photosensitive layer. For example, when exposing a photosensitive layer with a thickness of 1 to 100 μm using ultraviolet irradiation from a high-pressure mercury lamp, the exposure amount is preferably 10 to 1,000 mJ / cm². 2 , more preferably 50 to 700 mJ / cm² 2More preferably 150 to 400 mJ / cm² 2 That is the case.

[0116] Next, if a carrier film is present on the photosensitive layer 103, the carrier film is removed before development. During development, the uncured portion of the photosensitive layer 103 is removed, and the photocured portion is formed on the substrate as the interlayer insulating layer 104. The development method may be wet development or dry development, but wet development is preferred. As for the wet development method, a spray method is preferred from the viewpoint of improving resolution. Examples of developer solutions include alkaline aqueous solutions, aqueous developers, and organic solvent-based developers, and among these, alkaline aqueous solutions are preferred. After exposure and development, post-exposure may be performed from the viewpoint of increasing the degree of hardening of the interlayer insulating layer. The exposure amount in post-exposure is preferably 0.2 to 10 J / cm 2 A more preferable 0.5 to 5 J / cm 2 That is the case.

[0117] There are no particular restrictions on the shape of the via. In terms of cross-sectional shape, examples include a square or an inverted trapezoid. Note that an inverted trapezoid is a shape in which the top side is longer than the bottom side. In terms of plan view, examples include a circle or a square. In the photolithography method of via formation in this embodiment, vias with an inverted trapezoidal cross-section can be formed. Vias having this shape are preferable because they have high adhesion of plated copper to the via wall surface. In the photolithography method of via formation in this embodiment, the diameter of the via can be made smaller than the diameter of a via produced by laser processing. The diameter of a via formed by the manufacturing method of this embodiment may be, for example, 40 μm or less, 35 μm or less, or 30 μm or less. There are no particular restrictions on the lower limit of the via diameter, but for example, it may be 15 μm or more, or 20 μm or more.

[0118] (Heat curing step (3)) In heat curing step (3), the interlayer insulating layer having vias is heat cured. That is, in heat curing step (3), heating is used to promote the curing reaction of the thermosetting components contained in the photosensitive resin film of this embodiment. The heating temperature is preferably 100 to 300°C, more preferably 120 to 200°C, and even more preferably 150 to 180°C. The heating time is preferably 0.3 to 3 hours, more preferably 0.5 to 2 hours, and even more preferably 0.75 to 1.5 hours.

[0119] (Circuit pattern formation process (4)) Next, a circuit pattern is formed on the interlayer insulating layer formed above. From the viewpoint of forming fine wiring, it is preferable to form the circuit pattern by a semi-additive process in which roughening treatment, seed layer formation, resist pattern formation, copper circuit layer formation, and resist pattern removal are performed in this order.

[0120] The roughening treatment is a process that roughens the surface of the interlayer insulating layer to form anchors of irregularities. If smearing occurs in the via formation process (2), the roughening treatment and removal of the smear may be performed simultaneously using a roughening solution. Examples of roughening solutions include alkaline permanganate roughening solutions such as sodium permanganate roughening solution; chromium / sulfuric acid roughening solution; sodium fluoride / chromium / sulfuric acid roughening solution.

[0121] Figure 1(c) illustrates the process of forming the seed layer 106. The seed layer 106 is for forming a power supply layer for electrolytic copper plating. The seed layer 106 can be formed by applying electroless copper plating treatment using a palladium catalyst or the like to the via bottom, via wall surface, and the entire surface of the interlayer insulating layer.

[0122] Figure 1(d) illustrates the process of forming a resist pattern 107 on the seed layer 106. The resist pattern 107 can be formed, for example, by heat-pressing a dry film resist onto the seed layer 106 using a roll laminator, and then exposing and developing it. Commercially available dry film resists can be used.

[0123] The dry film resist can be exposed by passing it through a mask on which the desired wiring pattern is drawn. After exposure, the dry film resist is developed using an alkaline aqueous solution to remove unexposed areas and form the resist pattern 107. Subsequently, plasma treatment may be performed to remove any development residue of the dry film resist, if necessary.

[0124] Figure 1(e) illustrates the process of forming a copper circuit layer 108. The copper circuit layer 108 is preferably formed by electrolytic copper plating. As the electrolytic copper plating solution used for electrolytic copper plating, commercially available electrolytic copper plating solutions, such as those containing copper sulfate, can be used. After electrolytic copper plating, the resist pattern 107 is removed using an alkaline aqueous solution or an amine-based stripping agent, and then flash etching to remove the seed layer 106 between the wirings, removal of the palladium catalyst, etc., are performed as appropriate by known methods. Furthermore, if necessary, a post-bake treatment may be performed to sufficiently heat-cur any unreacted thermosetting components.

[0125] Figure 1(f) shows a multilayer printed circuit board 100A that is formed by repeating the above steps and has a solder resist layer 109 on its outermost surface. The solder resist layer 109 can be formed using a known photosensitive resin film for solder resist.

[0126] The above describes a method for manufacturing a printed circuit board using the photosensitive resin film of this embodiment to form vias. However, since the photosensitive resin film of this embodiment has excellent pattern resolution, it is also suitable for forming cavities for embedding chips or passive elements, for example. The cavities can be suitably formed, for example, in the description of the printed circuit board above, by making the drawing pattern when exposing the photosensitive resin film to form a pattern such that it can form the desired cavity.

[0127] [Semiconductor Package] The semiconductor package of this embodiment is a semiconductor package having the printed circuit board of this embodiment and semiconductor elements. The semiconductor package of this embodiment can be manufactured, for example, by mounting semiconductor elements such as semiconductor chips and memory at predetermined positions on the printed circuit board of this embodiment and sealing the semiconductor elements with a sealing resin or the like.

[0128] The embodiments will be described in more detail below with reference to examples, but the embodiments are not limited to these examples.

[0131] [Production of Photosensitive Resin Compositions and Photosensitive Resin Films] Examples 1-7, Comparative Examples 1-2 (1) Production of Photosensitive Resin Compositions Each component was blended according to the formulation shown in Table 1 (the units of the numerical values ​​in the table are parts by mass, and in the case of solutions, the amount is on a solid content basis), and kneaded using a three-roll mill and a self-rotating mixer. Then, methyl ethyl ketone was added so that the solid content concentration was 65% by mass to obtain a photosensitive resin composition.

[0132] (2) A polyethylene terephthalate film with a manufacturing thickness of 25 μm (manufactured by Toyobo Co., Ltd., trade name "Toyobo Ester HPE") was prepared as a carrier film. The photosensitive resin composition prepared in each example was applied onto the carrier film so that the film thickness after drying was 25 μm, and a photosensitive resin film was formed by drying it at 100°C for 10 minutes using a hot air convection dryer. Subsequently, a polyethylene film (manufactured by Unitika Ltd., trade name "TRFA") was laminated as a protective film onto the surface of the photosensitive resin film opposite to the side in contact with the carrier film, and a photosensitive resin film was prepared by laminating the carrier film and the protective film.

[0133] [Method for measuring relative permittivity (Dk)] Two photosensitive resin films, with the protective film removed, are bonded together, and with the carrier films on both sides still attached, they are exposed to light at 400 mJ / cm² using a flatbed exposure machine. 2 , using a UV conveyor type exposure machine at 2 J / cm 2 The material was irradiated. Then, it was heat-treated at 170°C for 1 hour using a hot air circulating dryer, and cut into 7cm x 10cm pieces to be used as evaluation samples. The obtained evaluation samples were sealed with a desiccant and dried for more than 10 hours, and the relative permittivity (Dk) in the 10GHz band was measured using the split-post dielectric resonator method (SPDR method), and evaluated based on the following criteria: (Evaluation criteria for relative permittivity (Dk)) A: Less than 3.30 B: Greater than 3.30

[0134] [Measurement of Minimum Development Time] The copper foil surface of a printed circuit board substrate (manufactured by Resonac Co., Ltd., product name "MCL-E-679"), which consists of copper foil (thickness 12 μm) laminated on a glass epoxy substrate, was pre-treated with a roughening pre-treatment solution (manufactured by MEC Co., Ltd., product name "CZ-8101"), then washed with water and dried. Next, a photosensitive resin film, from which the protective film had been peeled off, was laminated onto the copper foil of the pre-treated printed circuit board substrate with the photosensitive resin film facing the adhesive surface. A press-type vacuum laminator (manufactured by Meiki Seisakusho Co., Ltd., product name "MVLP-500") was used for lamination, and the lamination conditions were: vacuuming time 20 seconds, atmospheric pressure 4 kPa or less, lamination press time 30 seconds, press hot plate temperature 75°C, and pressure 0.4 MPa. After lamination, the laminate was left at room temperature for at least one hour to obtain an evaluation laminate in which a photosensitive resin film and a carrier film were laminated in that order on the copper foil surface of a printed circuit board substrate. The carrier film of the evaluation laminate obtained above was removed, and the photosensitive resin film was spray-developed using a 1% by mass sodium carbonate aqueous solution at 30°C. At this time, the minimum development time was defined as the minimum development time, and it was evaluated based on the following criteria: (Evaluation criteria) A: Minimum development time is less than 30 seconds. B: Minimum development time is 30 seconds or more and 60 seconds or less. C: Minimum development time is more than 60 seconds.

[0135] [Evaluation of Tackiness] The protective film was peeled off from the carrier film and photosensitive resin film with protective film manufactured in each example and comparative example. The surface of the exposed photosensitive resin film was used as the target for tack measurement, and the tack was measured using a tacking tester (manufactured by Resca Co., Ltd., product name "Tacking Tester TAC-II") under the following conditions: ・Probe: 0.196 cm 2A φ5.1 mm stainless steel probe with a flat circular tip was used. Pressing load: 100 gf Pressing speed: 120 mm / s Pressing time: 1 second Pulling speed: 120 mm / s Stage temperature: 25°C Probe temperature: 25°C The tack value obtained by the above method was evaluated based on the following criteria: (Evaluation criteria) A: Tack value is less than 100 gf.
