Description

Chemically amplified positive photosensitive resin composition, method for producing substrate with mold, and method for producing molded article by plating
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a chemically amplified positive photosensitive resin composition, a method for producing a substrate with a mold, and a method for producing an electroplated molded article, and more particularly, to a chemically amplified positive photosensitive resin composition capable of improving rectangularity, a method for producing a substrate with a mold from the chemically amplified positive photosensitive resin composition, and a method for producing an electroplated molded article from the substrate with a mold.
Background
Nowadays, the photoelectric processing has become the mainstream of the precision microfabrication technology. The term "photo-electric processing" refers to a general term for a technique of coating a resist composition on a surface of a workpiece to form a resist layer, patterning the resist layer by photolithography, and then performing chemical etching, electrolytic etching, or electroforming mainly by electroplating using the patterned resist layer (resist pattern) as a mask to manufacture various precision parts such as a semiconductor package.
In recent years, with the miniaturization of electronic devices, high-density packaging technology for semiconductor packages has been rapidly advancing, and the packaging density of packages has been improved, such as multi-pin thin-film packaging, package size miniaturization, two-dimensional packaging technology using flip chip technology, and three-dimensional packaging technology. In such high-density packaging technology, as the connection terminals, for example, bump electrodes (assembly terminals) for connecting bumps or the like protruding toward the package, rewirings extending from peripheral terminals on the wafer, metal posts of the assembly terminals, and the like are arranged on the substrate with high precision.
Such a photo-electric processing system uses a resist composition, and as such a resist composition, a chemically amplified resist composition containing an acid generator is known (see patent documents 1 and 2, etc.). The chemically amplified resist composition is one which generates an acid from an acid generator by irradiation (exposure) with radiation, promotes the diffusion of the acid by heat treatment, and causes an acid-catalyzed reaction with a matrix resin or the like in the composition to change the alkali solubility.
Such a chemically amplified positive resist composition is used for forming a plating-formed body such as a bump or a metal post in a plating step. Specifically, a resist composition of chemical amplification type is used to form a resist layer having a desired film thickness on a support such as a metal substrate, and the resist layer is exposed and developed through a predetermined mask pattern to form a resist pattern used as a template, wherein a portion where a bump or a metal pillar is to be formed is selectively removed (peeled). Then, a conductor such as copper is embedded in the removed portion (non-resist portion) by plating, and then the resist pattern around the portion is removed, whereby a bump or a metal post can be formed.
However, the aforementioned chemically amplified positive resist composition has the disadvantages of poor sensitivity and poor rectangularity of the formed resist pattern, and is not acceptable in the industry. Therefore, it is an urgent need in the art to provide a chemically amplified positive photoresist composition capable of forming a photoresist pattern with excellent sensitivity and rectangularity.

< method for producing substrate with mold >
The method for forming a resist pattern as a mold for forming a plating molded body on a metal surface of a substrate having a metal surface by using the chemically amplified positive photosensitive resin composition is not particularly limited.
Preferred examples of the method include a method comprising: a laminating step of laminating a photosensitive resin layer made of the chemically amplified positive photosensitive resin composition on a metal surface of a substrate having the metal surface; an exposure step of irradiating the photosensitive resin layer with active light or radiation; and a developing step of developing the exposed photosensitive resin layer to form a mold for forming a plating molded body.
The substrate on which the photosensitive resin layer is to be laminated is not particularly limited, and conventionally known substrates can be used, and examples thereof include a substrate for electronic components and a substrate having a predetermined wiring pattern formed thereon. For the substrate, one having a metal surface is used; as the metal species constituting the metal surface, copper, gold, aluminum are preferable, and copper is more preferable.
The photosensitive resin layer is laminated on the substrate in the following manner, for example. That is, a liquid chemically amplified positive photosensitive resin composition is applied to a substrate, and the solvent is removed by heating to form a photosensitive resin layer having a desired film thickness. The thickness of the photosensitive resin layer is not particularly limited as long as a resist pattern serving as a template can be formed with a desired film thickness. The thickness of the photosensitive resin layer is not particularly limited, but is preferably 10 μm or more, more preferably 10 to 150 μm, particularly preferably 20 to 120 μm, most preferably 20 to 100 μm.
As a method for coating the photosensitive resin composition on the substrate, a spin coating method, a slit coating method, a roll coating method, a screen printing method, a dispensing method, or the like can be used. The photosensitive resin layer is preferably pre-baked. The prebaking conditions vary depending on the kind, blending ratio, coating thickness and the like of each component in the photosensitive resin composition, but are usually 70 to 150 ℃, preferably 80 to 140 ℃ and 2 to 60 minutes or so.
The photosensitive resin layer formed as described above is selectively irradiated (exposed) with active light or radiation, for example, ultraviolet light or visible light having a wavelength of 300 to 500nm, through a mask having a predetermined pattern.
As a radiation source, a low-pressure mercury lamp or high-pressure mercury can be usedLamps, ultra-high pressure mercury lamps, metal halide lamps, argon lasers, and the like. The radiation includes microwave, infrared ray, visible ray, ultraviolet ray, X-ray, γ -ray, electron beam, proton beam, neutron beam, ion beam, and the like. The amount of radiation exposure varies depending on the composition of the photosensitive resin composition, the thickness of the photosensitive resin layer, etc., and is, for example, 100 to 10000mJ/cm when using an ultra-high pressure mercury lamp 2 . The radiation includes light for activating the photoacid generator (C) to generate an acid.
After the exposure, the photosensitive resin layer is heated by a known method to promote the diffusion of acid, and the alkali solubility of the photosensitive resin layer is changed in the exposed portion of the photosensitive resin film.
Then, the exposed photosensitive resin layer is developed according to the conventional method, and the soluble portion is dissolved and removed to form a predetermined resist pattern. In this case, an alkaline aqueous solution is used as the developer.
As the developer, for example, an aqueous solution of a base such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, sodium silicate, sodium metasilicate, aqueous ammonia, ethylamine, n-propylamine, diethylamine, di-n-propylamine, triethylamine, methyldiethylamine, dimethylethanolamine, triethanolamine, tetramethylammonium hydroxide, tetraethylammonium hydroxide, pyrrole, piperidine, 1, 8-diazabicyclo [5,4,0] -7-undecene, 1, 5-diazabicyclo [4,3,0] -5-nonane, or the like can be used. An aqueous solution obtained by adding an appropriate amount of a water-soluble organic solvent such as methanol or ethanol or a surfactant to the aqueous solution of the alkali may be used as the developer.
The developing time varies depending on the composition of the photosensitive resin composition, the film thickness of the photosensitive resin layer, and the like, and is usually 1 to 30 minutes. The developing method may be any of a liquid coating method, a dipping method, a paddle method, a jet developing method, and the like.
After the development, the resultant is washed with running water for 30 to 90 seconds and dried with an air gun, an oven, or the like. Thus, a substrate with a mold having a resist pattern as a mold on a metal surface of a substrate having a metal surface can be manufactured.
< method for producing electroplated molded article >
By embedding a conductor such as a metal in the non-resist portion (a portion removed with a developer) of the mold of the substrate with a mold formed by the above method, a plating molded body such as a connection terminal such as a bump or a metal post can be formed. The plating method is not particularly limited, and various conventionally known methods can be used. The plating solution is particularly preferably solder plating, copper plating, gold plating, or nickel plating. The residual mold is finally removed by a stripping liquid or the like according to a conventional method.
According to the above method, a resist pattern which can be used as a mold while suppressing undercut is formed. By using the substrate having the mold capable of suppressing undercut, a plated molded article excellent in adhesion to the substrate can be produced.
The present invention will be described in detail with reference to examples, but the present invention is not limited to the disclosure of these examples.

Evaluation method
a. Sensitivity of the device
The chemically amplified positive photosensitive resin compositions of examples and comparative examples were applied to a 6-inch copper substrate using a spin coater to form a photosensitive resin layer having a thickness of 50 μm. Thereafter, the photosensitive resin layer was prebaked at 110 ℃ for 6 minutes. After the pre-baking, pattern exposure was performed with g-line, h-line, and i-line using a mask having a hole pattern of 60 μm in diameter and an exposure device Titan 2 (manufactured by Ultratech), and the exposure amount was changed stepwise. Subsequently, the substrate was placed on a hot plate, and post-exposure heating (PEB) was performed at 100 ℃ for 3 minutes. Thereafter, a 2.38% aqueous tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) solution was dropped onto the photosensitive resin layer, and the layer was left at 23 ℃ for 60 seconds, and development was repeated 4 times. Thereafter, the resist was washed with running water and then nitrogen gas was blown to obtain a thick film resist pattern having a contact hole pattern with a diameter of 50 μm.
Then, the exposure amount without pattern residue, that is, the minimum exposure amount required for forming the thick film resist pattern is obtained as an index of sensitivity. The evaluation criteria are as follows:
very good: the exposure is less than 100mJ/cm 2
○:100mJ/cm 2 Exposure ≦ 150mJ/cm 2
△:150mJ/cm 2 Exposure is ≦ 200mJ/cm 2
Gamma rays: exposure ≧ 200mJ/cm 2
b. Rectangularity
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating the rectangularity of a photoresist pattern. After the exposure and development steps, the photosensitive resin layer applied to the substrate 100 is formed into a resist pattern 120 having a resist portion 122 and a non-resist portion 124. Observing the cross-sectional shape of the photoresist pattern with the optimal exposure, and measuring the bottom width L b And a top width L t And calculating L t /L b The value serves as an indicator of rectangularity. The evaluation criteria are as follows:
◎:0.9<L t /L b <1.1
○:0.85<L t /L b ≦0.9;1.1≦L t /L b <1.15
△:0.75<L t /L b ≦0.85;1.15≦L t /L b <1.25
╳:L t /L b <0.75;L t /L b >1.25
evaluation results
As can be seen from tables 4 and 5, the chemical amplification type positive photosensitive resin compositions (comparative examples 1 and 3) containing the novolak resin (B) in which the area of the cresol dinuclear bodies is more than 6% (B-1 to B-3) are inferior in rectangularity to the chemical amplification type positive photosensitive resin compositions (examples 1 to 14) containing the novolak resin (B) in which the area of the cresol dinuclear bodies is 0.5% to 6% (B-4 to B-7).
Meanwhile, when the first monomer (a 1) having a structure represented by the formula (A-1) (examples 1 to 8) is contained in the monomer mixture for copolymerization of the resin (A), the rectangularity thereof is more excellent. In addition, when the monomer mixture further includes the second monomer (a 2) containing a cyclic ether group (examples 2 to 9), the sensitivity is more excellent.
In addition, when the thiol compound (E) (examples 2 to 4,6, 8, 12, and 13) is contained in the chemically amplified positive photosensitive resin composition, the rectangularity is more excellent.
In addition, when the chemically amplified positive photosensitive resin composition contains the anthracene compound (F) (examples 2,3, 6 to 8, 13, and 14), the sensitivity performance is also more excellent.
As described above, the chemically amplified positive photosensitive resin composition of the present invention can improve rectangularity because the area of cresol dinuclear bodies in the novolac resin (B) is 0.5 to 6%.
Although the present invention has been described with reference to the above embodiments, it should be understood that various changes and modifications can be made therein by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
