Photosensitive Resin Composition for Pattern Profile Control
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Photosensitive resin compositions with high sensitivity face challenges in controlling pattern shape due to narrow optimal exposure dose ranges and low handleability, making it difficult to achieve desired pattern profiles.
Innovation Solution
A photosensitive resin composition combining a high-sensitivity photosensitive agent with a standard-sensitivity photosensitive agent, specifically formulated with polyimide precursors and selected compounds, to expand the exposure dose range and improve handleability, allowing for easier control of pattern profiles.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Measurement precision
If a high-sensitivity photosensitive agent is used, then sensitivity is improved, but handleability deteriorates due to narrow optimal exposure dose range
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines a high-sensitivity photosensitive agent (compound of formula 1) with a standard-sensitivity photosensitive agent (compound of formula 2) in specific proportions (0.01-5 mass% high-sensitivity agent and 95-95 mass% standard-sensitivity agent). This merging allows the composition to benefit from the high sensitivity of the first compound while the second compound provides a broader exposure dose range, thereby improving handleability without sacrificing sensitivity.
2Measurement precision
If a high-sensitivity photosensitive agent is used, then sensitivity is improved, but pattern shape control deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
By merging a high-sensitivity photosensitive agent (formula 1) with a standard-sensitivity photosensitive agent (formula 2) in controlled proportions, the patent achieves both high sensitivity and good pattern shape control. The standard-sensitivity agent contributes to stable pattern formation and profile control, while the high-sensitivity agent maintains high sensitivity. The specific composition ratio ensures that neither agent dominates, allowing balanced performance in both sensitivity and pattern control.
3Measurement precision
If the addition amount of high-sensitivity photosensitive agent is increased, then sensitivity is improved, but pattern profile control deteriorates due to large changes in pattern profile
Solution Approach 1:
The patent optimizes the concentration parameter of the high-sensitivity photosensitive agent (formula 1) to be 0.01-5 mass% in the composition. At this controlled concentration range, the high-sensitivity agent provides sufficient sensitivity enhancement without causing excessive pattern profile changes. The standard-sensitivity agent (formula 2) acts as a buffer that stabilizes the pattern profile, preventing large variations even when the high-sensitivity agent is present.
