Description

Polysulfonamide polymers, low-temperature crosslinked positive-working photosensitive compositions containing polysulfonamide polymers and use thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a photosensitive dielectric material applied in the field of semiconductors, in particular to a positive photosensitive composition containing a polysulfonamide polymer, a cured product prepared from the positive photosensitive composition and application of the cured product in semiconductor packaging.
Background
Innovations in semiconductor technology have seen a gradual shift in recent years from front-end processing to back-end packaging, as transistor scaling, which has traditionally been relied upon for semiconductor technology innovations, has become increasingly difficult. Each miniaturization of technology nodes (nodes) in recent years comes at the expense of an increase in unit transistor cost. From the standpoint of unit transistor cost, moore's law has no longer been applicable to predict the current trends in the semiconductor industry.
Various advanced post-packaging technologies that have been rapidly developed in the last decade have emerged in response to this new industry trend. The main advanced packaging technologies include flip-chip (flip-chip), fan-in (fan-in), fan-out (fan-out), embedded chip (embedded), and the like. These advanced packaging technologies integrate multiple chip or package connections together by means of direct chip-connection chips, chip-connection packages, package-connection packages, and the like. The optimized system integration not only realizes short-distance rapid transmission between signals, but also can effectively reduce the energy consumption and the heat generation of chips and functional devices. Most importantly, the system integration can reduce the integration of a plurality of chips to a smaller area, so that the system integration provides infinite innovation possibility for the mobile computing mainly based on the smart phone.
The advanced packaging techniques described above place more challenging demands on high performance photosensitive polymers for redistribution layers (RDLs). These photosensitive polymers are required to have excellent lithographic properties, and cured films prepared from the photosensitive polymers also have the advantages of high insulating properties, mechanical properties, adhesion, high-temperature stability, low water absorption, high chemical corrosion resistance and the like. In addition, low-temperature curability is becoming one of the most important indicators for evaluating materials in this field. Materials such as photosensitive Polyimide (PI), Polybenzobisoxazole (PBO), benzocyclobutene (BCB), etc., which have been the mainstream in the past, have not been able to meet the requirements of the current latest technology because they require a high post-curing temperature. The low-temperature curing type photosensitive polyimide, polybenzoxazole and benzocyclobutene become major hot spots of research and development of various companies in the electronic material industry in recent years. In addition, the search for new alternative materials with excellent low temperature curability has also attracted increasing attention.
Accordingly, there is still inconvenience and disadvantage in the conventional photosensitive composition containing polyimide, polybenzoxazole and benzocyclobutene and cured products prepared therefrom, and further improvement is desired. Therefore, the novel photosensitive material with low-temperature curing capability has great market demand and application prospect. In this context, polysulfonamide polymers which have appeared in recent years have proven to have excellent material properties after curing at low temperatures. The composition containing polysulfonamide also has the advantages of small film thickness loss, excellent lithographic performance and the like. On the basis, the invention provides a method for further improving the low-temperature curing performance of the polysulfonamide material. That is, in the synthesis of polysulfonamides, chain-like aliphatic diamine precursors are partially substituted for the aromatic diamine precursors used in the past, thereby increasing the flexibility of the polymer chain and ultimately achieving the goal of lowering the curing temperature.

The synthesis method of the polysulfonamide polymer is as follows: in an inert atmosphere, dissolving a diamine mixture and 2-methylpyridine in N-methylpyrrolidone, then dropwise adding a sulfonyl chloride monomer (dissolved in the N-methylpyrrolidone) with the same molar amount as or slightly excessive amount of the diamine monomer, reacting for 1 hour in an ice bath at 0-5 ℃, settling the obtained polymer solution in a deionized water medium, filtering, and performing vacuum drying at 80-120 ℃ to obtain the polysulfonamide polymer.
The polysulfonamide polymers described above may have a weight average molecular weight of 5,000 to 200,000. Preferably a weight average molecular weight of 10,000 to 150,000. Here, the molecular weight is measured by a Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC) method and calculated from a standard polystyrene standard curve.
In order to improve the stability of the composition, the main chain end may be capped with a monoacid chloride compound as a capping agent. As the monoacid chloride compound: the compound may be selected from monocarboxylic acids such as 3-carboxybenzenesulfonic acid and 4-carboxybenzenesulfonic acid, and monocarboxylic acid chloride compounds obtained by acid chlorination of their carboxyl groups, or may be selected from monocarboxylic acid compounds obtained by acid chlorination of only one carboxyl group of dicarboxylic acids such as terephthalic acid, phthalic acid, maleic acid, cyclohexanedicarboxylic acid, 1, 5-dicarboxylnaphthalene, 1, 6-dicarboxylnaphthalene, 1, 7-dicarboxylnaphthalene and 2, 6-dicarboxylnaphthalene, and active ester compounds obtained by reaction of a monocarboxylic acid chloride compound with N-hydroxybenzotriazole and N-hydroxy-5-norbornene-2, 3-dicarboxylimide. The blocking agent may be one or more of the aforementioned compounds.
The above polysulfonamide polymers are generally developed using an aqueous alkaline solution. Accordingly, polysulfonamide polymers which are soluble in alkaline solvents are preferred. Preparing a solution of a polysulfonamide polymer, spin-coating the solution on a substrate such as a silicon wafer, and drying the substrate by heating to remove the solvent to form a resin film having a thickness of about 10 μm; then soaking the mixture in aqueous solution of tetramethyl ammonium hydroxide at the temperature of between 20 and 25 ℃; the ease with which component (a) dissolves in the alkaline aqueous solution is judged by the time required for the film to dissolve completely.
In addition, the transmittance of the i-line directly affects the resolution of the photosensitive composition during processing. In order to obtain a microstructure relief pattern with the best resolution under the same film thickness condition, the polysulfonamide base polymer is preferably a monomer structure containing fluorine atoms with good light transmittance. The fluorine-containing composition is also advantageous in reducing the effect of the solution on the immersion swelling of the film at the time of development to suppress the bleeding from the surface, and also in reducing the water absorption of the composition after curing.
Finally, the stress of a cured film obtained by applying the composition containing the polysulfonamide polymer represented by formula (1) to a substrate and curing the composition by heating is preferably 30MPa or less. If the stress is less than or equal to 30MPa, the warpage of the chip can be effectively inhibited after the film is solidified and formed, so that the wafer reconstruction (wafer reconstruction) process widely adopted in the current advanced packaging process is suitable for application.
Therefore, in the polysulfonamide-based polymer, from the comprehensive viewpoint of light transmittance, water absorption, alkali solubility and stress, X2 in the general formula (1) is a divalent aromatic linking group, which is preferably a structural unit having a trifluoromethyl group represented by the following general formula (8).

Embodiments of the positive photosensitive composition, the method for producing a pattern cured product, the redistribution layer, the interlayer insulating buffer film, the coverlay or the surface protective film, and the electronic device according to the present invention will be described in detail below. The present invention is not limited to the following embodiments. In the present specification, "a or" B "may include either one of a and B, or both of them. The numerical range represented by the term "to" means a range including the numerical values described before and after the term "to" as the minimum value and the maximum value, respectively.
The positive photosensitive composition of the present invention contains at least (A) a polysulfonamide polymer (the structure is represented by general formula (1)), (B) a photoacid generator, (C) a crosslinking agent, and (D) a solvent. Hereinafter, each component used in the composition of the present invention will be described in detail. Wherein the component A polysulfonamide sulfonamide polymer, properties, and synthesis are as described in the first section above.
II, and (B) component: photoacid generators
The photoacid generator as the component (B) in the present invention is a compound that generates an acid upon irradiation with light. In the positive photosensitive composition containing a polysulfonamide polymer herein, the photoacid generated by exposure increases the solubility of the exposed portion in an aqueous alkaline solution. These photoacid generators do not chemically react and function to inhibit dissolution in the unexposed portions. Thus, there is a large difference (contrast) in the dissolution rates of the exposed and non-exposed areas (dark areas), and a film having a microstructured relief pattern is obtained after the development step. Examples of the photoacid commonly used in the positive photosensitive composition containing a polysulfonamide polymer include quinone diazide sulfonyl chlorides, onium salts such as diaryliodonium salts, triarylsulfonium salts, and sulfonium borate salts, 2-nitrobenzyl ester compounds, N-iminosulfonate compounds, imide sulfonate compounds, 2, 6-bis (trichloromethyl) -1,3, 5-triazine compounds, and dihydropyridine compounds.
Among them, quinonediazide sulfonyl chloride compounds are preferable because of high sensitivity and good solvent solubility. Many quinone diazide sulfonyl chloride compounds are commercially available, and can also be obtained by condensation reaction of an o-quinone diazide sulfonyl chloride with a hydroxyl compound, an amino compound or the like in the presence of a desalting acid agent, for example, by reacting a polyhydroxy compound with 1, 2-diazonaphthoquinone-4-sulfonyl chloride or 1, 2-diazonaphthoquinone-5-sulfonyl chloride in the presence of a basic catalyst such as triethylamine. As the quinonediazide sulfonyl chloride compound, 1, 2-benzoquinone-2-diazide-4-sulfonyl chloride, 1, 2-naphthoquinone-2-diazide-5-sulfonyl chloride, 1, 2-naphthoquinone-2-diazide-4-sulfonyl chloride, and the like can be selectively used. As the hydroxyl compound as the esterification precursor of the sensitizer, p-hydroquinone, bisphenol A, 2-bis (4-hydroxyphenyl) hexafluoropropane, bis (3-amino-4-hydroxyphenyl) propane, bis (4-amino-3-hydroxyphenyl) hexafluoropropane, bis (4-amino-3-hydroxyphenyl) propane, bis (4-hydroxyphenyl) methane, resorcinol, pyrogallol, 2,3,4,2 ', 3 ' -pentahydroxybenzophenone, 2,3, 4-trihydroxybenzophenone, 2,3,4, 4' -tetrahydroxybenzophenone, 2 ', 4,4' -tetrahydroxybenzophenone, bis (4-amino-3-hydroxyphenyl) sulfone, bis (3-amino-4-hydroxyphenyl) sulfone and the like can be selectively used, but is not limited thereto. By using such a quinonediazide compound, a photoacid generator having excellent sensitivity to i-line (wavelength 365nm), h-line (wavelength 405nm), and g-line (wavelength 436nm) of a mercury lamp, which is a general ultraviolet ray, can be obtained. As described above, quinonediazide sulfonyl chloride compounds represented by the following formula (10) are preferable in the present invention.

The content of the quinonediazide compound is preferably 5 to 40 parts by mass, and more preferably 8 to 30 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of the component (a), in order to obtain an optimum resolution and improve a pattern contrast. In the case where the amount is within the above range, the residue after development of the unexposed portion is easily suppressed, and a practical relief pattern can be obtained. Here, the component (B) may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
Thirdly, component (C): crosslinker component
The crosslinking agent component (C) in the photosensitive polysulfonamide composition of the present invention is a crosslinking agent which undergoes a crosslinking reaction with the polysulfonamide polymer component (a) in the step of heat-curing the positive photosensitive composition. Thus, compounds that do not react with other components of the polysulfonamide compositions are preferred. The crosslinking agent usually contains at least one compound having a-CH group2Alkoxy OR hydroxy compounds of OR (R is a hydrogen atom OR a 1-valent organic group), epoxy compounds, oxetane compounds OR vinyl ether compounds. From the viewpoint of high mechanical properties of the cured film and high reactivity at the time of curing at low temperature, a compound having a hydroxymethyl group or an alkoxymethyl group represented by the following formula (11) is preferable.

The content of the crosslinking agent (C) is preferably 3 to 50 parts by mass, and more preferably 5 to 40 parts by mass, per 100 parts by mass of the component (A), in order to obtain an optimum chemical agent corrosion resistance effect. If the crosslinking agent is less than 3 parts by mass, the effect of significantly improving the resistance to corrosion by chemical agents is not obtained; if the crosslinking agent is more than 50 parts by mass, various mechanical properties of the material may be degraded.

TABLE-1
Figure BDA0002555840340000241
NA: representing compositions without such components.
The photosensitive resin compositions (also called varnishes) obtained in the above examples/comparative examples were filtered through a polytetrafluoroethylene filter to obtain final positive photosensitive resin compositions. Depending on the polymer concentration in the composition and the viscosity of the varnish, a polytetrafluoroethylene filter membrane with a pore size of 0.45-3 microns can be chosen.
The varnish is then formed into a polysulfonamide resin film of about 10 μm thickness coated on a substrate material by the method of claim 6. These polysulfonamide resin films and cured product films having a relief pattern produced therefrom will be further described below.
The method for preparing a pattern cured product by using the polysulfonamide composition comprises the following steps:
(a) resin film forming step: a step of applying the polysulfonamide polymer composition described in claim 1 to 5 to a substrate and heating the composition on a hot plate to remove the solvent to form a photosensitive resin film. Examples of the substrate include a semiconductor substrate such as an Si substrate (silicon wafer), a ceramic substrate, a metal substrate (including a copper substrate, an aluminum substrate, a copper alloy substrate, and the like), a silicon nitride substrate, and the like. The coating method may be spin coating, spray coating, dipping, or the like, and spin coating by a spin coater is preferred from the viewpoint of controlling the film thickness. The heat drying may be performed using a hot plate, an oven, or the like. The heating and drying temperature is preferably 90-150 ℃, and more preferably 90-130 ℃.
(b) An exposure step: and pattern-exposing the photosensitive resin film using a mask. The pattern exposure is, for example, exposure to a predetermined pattern through a photomask. The active light to be irradiated includes ultraviolet rays such as i-rays, visible rays, and radiation rays, and i-rays are preferable. As the exposure apparatus, a scanner exposure machine, a projector exposure machine, a stepper exposure machine, or the like can be used.
(c) A developing step: by performing the developing step, a resin film having a microstructure relief pattern can be obtained. Generally, development is performed by a method such as a dipping method or a spin spray method. In the case of using the positive photosensitive resin composition of the present invention, the developer can remove the exposed portion of the film to obtain a relief pattern. The developing time is generally 10 seconds to 15 minutes, and preferably 20 seconds to 5 minutes from the viewpoint of improving productivity and process control. As the developer, inorganic bases such as sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, sodium silicate, and ammonia water; organic amines such as ethylamine, triethanolamine and diethylamine may also be used; an aqueous solution of quaternary ammonium salts such as tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) and tetrabutylammonium hydroxide may also be used. In the above-mentioned various developing solutions, a suitable amount of a water-soluble organic solvent such as methanol or ethanol or a surfactant may be added as necessary to enhance the effect. Among these developers, an aqueous tetramethylammonium hydroxide solution is preferable. In general, an aqueous solution of TMAH with a concentration of 2.38% is preferably used. Note that, depending on the dissolution rate of the (a) component, the concentration of TMAH in the alkaline developer may be appropriately diluted to adjust the film dissolution rate of the exposed region and the non-exposed region so as to obtain an optimum contrast ratio upon development. After the development, the developer may be removed by washing with a rinse solution, whereby a patterned thin film can be obtained. The rinse solution may be distilled water, methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, or the like, used alone or in combination.
(d) And a heat curing step, wherein the heat treatment step is a process of performing heat curing on the relief pattern resin film so as to obtain the optimal physical properties of the material. In this step, the relief pattern obtained by the above-described development is heated to be converted into a cured relief pattern. A hot plate or an oven may be used as the heating method, and the heating temperature is preferably 200 ℃ or less. The time of the heat treatment is usually 30 minutes to 4 hours, and more preferably 30 minutes to 2 hours, from the viewpoint of the time required for the crosslinking reaction. The atmosphere of the heat treatment may be air or an inert gas atmosphere such as nitrogen or argon. From the viewpoint of preventing oxidation of the pattern resin film and cost, it is preferable to heat-cure the pattern resin film in a high-purity nitrogen gas (. gtoreq.99.999%) atmosphere.
The cured product of the present invention is a cured polymer resin film obtained by the above-described treatment step, and such a film may be a cured film having a relief pattern as described above or a cured film having no pattern.
The cured film may be stacked in the semiconductor element in direct contact with the semiconductor element, or may be stacked with another layer interposed therebetween. They may also be used to encase other materials such as metal wires to act as an insulating medium. Examples of applications include redistribution layers, interlayer insulating buffer films, covercoat or surface protection film materials, and the like.
An example of a method of manufacturing a redistribution layer according to the present invention will be described with reference to fig. 1.
Figure 1 (schematic representation of a cross-section of a structure) is a construction of a redistribution layer structure using the composition of the present invention and embodiments thereof. It should be noted that the film thickness and device size ratios in the figures do not represent true ratios. In this embodiment mode, by designing the two-layer wiring structure, a signal can be input/output between the chip (Al Pad: aluminum contact plate electrode) and the outside (SolderBump: solder ball). The two-layer wiring structure is realized by copper redistribution layer leads (Cu RDL) wrapped on polymer layers (polymer layer 1 and polymer layer 2) of insulating material. As shown in fig. 1, copper leads connect aluminum pads (Al pads) and Solder balls (Solder Bump) on the chip. The solder balls are connected to other packages or motherboards in the next process after packaging, so that the package-to-package or package-to-motherboard connection is realized. The connection of the solder ball and the copper lead is realized by an under bump metallurgy (UBM Stud). These two layers of insulating materials (polymer layer 1 and polymer layer 2) employ the polysulfonamide cured film of the present invention. The purpose of rewiring and changing the position/size of the contact electrode can be realized through the design and the construction. The polysulfonamide cured film herein functions not only as an insulating dielectric material for covering the copper lead but also as a structural member for relaxing internal stress. These materials need to have good long term stability to maintain good stability and material recovery during thermal expansion and contraction cycles with changing temperatures and the accompanying stress changes.
By using one or more materials selected from the redistribution layer, the interlayer insulating buffer film, the coverlay film, and the surface protective film, it is possible to manufacture an electronic device such as a semiconductor device and a multilayer wiring board having high reliability and high stability.
Sixth, evaluation of adhesiveness
The cured film is mainly used as an insulating material for wrapping the copper wire, so that the good adhesion between the two materials is a critical material parameter. The invention adopts the following American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standard method to evaluate the adhesiveness of the material: d3359 Standard method for Measuring adhesive attachment by Tape Test. The specific operation details are as follows: the coating film obtained by the above method is heated on a hot plate at 120 ℃ for 3 minutes to obtain a film of about 10 μm; then curing the copper substrate at 200 ℃ to obtain a cured film without the relief pattern on the copper substrate; the cured film was cut into small 10 × 10 lattices (1 mm × 1 mm per lattice area) in the vertical direction with a saw-tooth-shaped hundred-lattice blade. An adhesive tape (manufactured by 3M) was attached to these small pieces of the cured film according to the method described in ASTM D3359, and the adhesive tape was peeled off. The line of application of the material was judged from the number of small pieces of the cured film peeled from the substrate when the adhesive tape was peeled off. In the present invention, the following criteria a or B are used to judge the adhesiveness of the material film to the copper substrate. The detailed results are shown in Table-2.
A: lattice without peeling
B, the number of the peeling lattices is at least 1
As seen from the following Table-2, the polysulfonamide cured films obtained by the present invention were excellent in adhesion to copper substrates as a whole.
Seventh, evaluation of discoloration inhibition
With respect to the resulting cured film coated on copper metal, the appearance was evaluated by an optical microscope and naked eyes. If the cured film can well maintain the original color of the underlying copper metal film after curing, it is evaluated as A that discoloration is suppressed; if the copper color under the cured film clearly shifts to deep red/brown, it is evaluated as B that discoloration is not suppressed. The detailed results are shown in Table-2 below.
A: inhibit color change
B: without inhibiting discoloration
As can be seen from the following Table-2, the polysulfonamide cured films obtained by the present invention generally have a good protective effect on copper substrates and inhibit the discoloration of copper metals.
In conclusion, the polysulfonamide cured material film provided by the invention effectively overcomes the defect that the adhesion of the materials to copper substrate materials is not strong, and plays a good role in protecting the copper metal of the substrate.
