Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If epoxy resins and heat curable resin materials are used for radiation-sensitive resin compositions, then the resin films can provide basic insulating ability and flattening properties, but the exposure sensitivity is insufficient and transparency after baking in oxidizing atmosphere deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the chemical composition parameters of the resin system by using alicyclic olefin polymer with acidic groups instead of conventional epoxy resins, and selecting specific crosslinking agents that maintain transparency after baking in oxidizing atmospheres
Solution Approach 2:
The patent creates a composite resin composition by combining alicyclic olefin polymer with acidic groups, specific crosslinking agents, and other additives to achieve both high exposure sensitivity and maintained transparency after baking
2Reliability
If conventional radiation-sensitive resin compositions are used to form resin films for high-density interconnects, then basic insulating properties are achieved, but low corrosiveness to metal materials is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the chemical parameters of the resin composition by incorporating alicyclic olefin polymer with acidic groups that inherently provide low corrosiveness to metal materials, eliminating the need for complex additional corrosion-inhibiting additives
3Duration of action of stationary object
If resin materials with high insulating ability are selected for organic EL devices, then device lifetime is extended, but gas generation characteristics during baking deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The patent changes the thermal stability parameters of the resin composition by using alicyclic olefin polymer and specific crosslinking agents that resist decomposition and gas generation during baking processes, thereby extending device lifetime without harmful gas evolution
