Description

Photocurable composition for imprinting comprising polymer
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a photocurable composition for imprinting, which contains an alicyclic (meth) acrylate monomer, a urethane (meth) acrylate compound or an epoxy (meth) acrylate compound, surface-modified silica particles, a polymer having a radical polymerizable group, and a photo-radical initiator. More specifically, the present invention relates to a photocurable composition which has excellent optical properties (transparency, high refractive index, and high abbe number), and in which an antireflection layer (AR layer) is formed on a cured product and a molded body, and then the antireflection layer is heat-treated, whereby cracks are not generated in the antireflection layer, and further cracks are not generated in the cured product after cleaning or development with an organic solvent.
Background
Resin lenses are used in electronic devices such as mobile phones, digital cameras, and vehicle-mounted cameras, and are required to have excellent optical characteristics according to the purpose of the electronic devices. In addition, depending on the form of use, high durability such as heat resistance and weather resistance, and high productivity enabling high-yield molding are required. As a material for a resin lens that satisfies such a demand, for example, thermoplastic transparent resins such as polycarbonate resin, cycloolefin polymer, and methacrylic resin are used.
In addition, although a plurality of lenses are used in a high-resolution camera module, a lens having low wavelength dispersion, that is, a high abbe number is mainly used, and an optical material for forming the lens is required. Further, in the production of resin lenses, in order to improve the yield and production efficiency and further suppress optical axis deviation in lens lamination, a shift from injection molding of a thermoplastic resin to wafer-level molding by extrusion molding using a curable resin that is liquid at room temperature has been actively studied. In wafer level molding, a hybrid lens system in which a lens is formed on a support such as a glass substrate is generally used from the viewpoint of productivity.
As a photocurable resin capable of being molded at a wafer level, a radical curable resin composition has been conventionally used from the viewpoint of high transparency, resistance to thermal yellowing, and mold releasability from a mold (patent document 1). Further, a curable composition is known which contains silica particles surface-modified with a silane compound, zirconia particles surface-modified with a dispersant, or other surface-modified oxide particles to obtain a cured product having a high abbe number (for example, patent documents 2 and 3).

Disclosure of Invention
Problems to be solved by the invention
When the molded article is a lens, an antireflection layer made of an inorganic substance such as silicon oxide or titanium oxide is formed on the molded article. Therefore, there is a problem that cracks are generated in the antireflection layer by heat-treating the lens coated with the antireflection layer. In addition, the curable composition containing the surface-modified oxide particles has a problem that, in a developing step of cleaning uncured portions such as the outer peripheral portion of a wafer-shaped molded body having a plurality of lens patterns formed thereon after imprinting with an organic solvent, the organic solvent significantly attacks the wafer-shaped molded body, and cracks are generated in the wafer-shaped molded body.
There is still no curable resin material which can provide a molded article having a high abbe number (for example, 53 or more) and high transparency and usable as a lens for a high-resolution camera module, in which a crack does not occur in an antireflection layer formed as an upper layer of the molded article by a heat treatment thereafter, and further, in a developing step of cleaning an uncured portion such as an outer peripheral portion of the wafer-shaped molded article by an organic solvent, a crack does not occur in the wafer-shaped molded article, and development of the material has been desired. The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a photocurable composition which can form a molded article having a high abbe number, a high refractive index, high transparency and thermal yellowing resistance, and which can form a molded article having a high cracking resistance in which an antireflection layer formed on an upper layer of the molded article does not crack when the molded article is subjected to a heat treatment and does not crack even when exposed to a developing step.

Detailed Description
[ (a) ingredient: surface-modified silica particles
The surface-modified silica particles that can be used as component (a) of the photocurable composition for imprinting of the present invention have a primary particle diameter of 1nm to 100 nm. Here, the primary particles are particles constituting a powder, and particles obtained by aggregating the primary particles are referred to as secondary particles. The primary particle diameter may be determined by a relational expression that holds between a specific surface area (surface area per unit mass) S of the surface-modified silica particle measured by a gas adsorption method (BET method), a density ρ of the surface-modified silica particle, and a primary particle diameter D: d is calculated as 6/(ρ S). The primary particle diameter calculated from the relational expression is an average particle diameter and is the diameter of the primary particle. The surface-modified silica particles are surface-modified with, for example, (meth) acryloyloxy groups bonded to silicon atoms via divalent linking groups. When the surface-modified silica particles are used, the surface-modified silica particles may be used as they are, or a colloidal substance (sol in which colloidal particles are dispersed in a dispersion medium) obtained by dispersing the surface-modified silica particles in an organic solvent as a dispersion medium in advance may be used.

If the content of the component (a) is less than 10 parts by mass, cracks in the antireflection layer formed on the cured product obtained from the above-mentioned photocurable composition for imprinting and the molded article may not be suppressed. If the content of the component (a) is more than 40 parts by mass, haze may be generated in the cured product and the molded article, and the transmittance may be lowered.

Then, an adhesive aid (product name: KBM-5103) made by shin-Etsu chemical Co., Ltd.) was diluted with PGMEA to a 5 mass% solution and dried to sandwich a 4-inch glass wafer (0.7mm thick) subjected to an adhesion treatment with a silicone rubber spacer having a thickness of 500 μm. The sandwiched photocurable composition was irradiated with the UV irradiation device via an i-ray band pass filter (manufactured by Nichisu corporation) at 62mW/cm2A 5 second UV exposure was performed. After exposure, the obtained cured product was peeled off from the glass substrate subjected to the release treatment, and then immersed (developed) in a stirred PGMEA, followed by rinsing with PGMEA to remove the unexposed portion, thereby producing a cured film having a thickness of 0.5mm in a 1cm square on the 4-inch glass wafer subjected to the adhesion treatment. The side surface of the cured film obtained was observed with an optical microscope (manufactured by オリンパス K) to determine that a crack was observed as "x" and that no crack was observed as "o". The results are shown in Table 2 below.
[ formation of antireflection layer and evaluation of crack resistance ]
0.020g of each of the photocurable compositions for imprints prepared in examples 1 to 8 and comparative examples 1 to 3 was weighed on a glass substrate subjected to a mold release treatment by coating NOVEC (registered trademark) 1720 (manufactured by ス リ ー エ ム ジャパン, Inc.) and drying. Then, a photo-curable composition for imprinting on the glass substrate was sandwiched between spacers made of silicone rubber having a thickness of 300 μm and a quartz substrate (6cm square, 1mm thick) which was subjected to an adhesion treatment by coating a solution prepared by diluting an adhesion promoter (product name: KBM-5103) made by shin-Etsu chemical Co., Ltd.) with PGMEA to 5 mass% and drying the solution. The sandwiched photocurable composition was irradiated with the UV irradiation device through an i-ray band pass filter (manufactured by Nichisu corporation) at 20mW/cm2A 300 second UV exposure was performed. After exposure, the cured product obtained was peeled off from the glass substrate, and then heated on a hot plate at 100 ℃ for 10 minutes to form a cured film having a diameter of 1cm, a thickness of 0.3mm and a mass of 0.020g on the quartz substrate.
A silicon oxide layer having a thickness of 200nm was formed as an antireflection layer on the cured film formed on the quartz substrate under the above-described film formation conditions by using the above-described RF sputtering apparatus. After the presence or absence of cracks was confirmed by observing the antireflection layer on the cured film using an optical microscope (manufactured by the company (ltd) キーエンス), the quartz substrate was heated for 2 minutes and 30 seconds at 175 ℃. The quartz substrate after the heat resistance test was also observed for the presence or absence of cracks in the antireflection layer on the cured film using an optical microscope (manufactured by the company "キーエンス"), and the crack resistance of the antireflection layer was determined. The case where cracks were observed in the anti-reflection layer on the cured film was judged as x, and the case where neither cracks nor wrinkles were observed in the anti-reflection layer on the cured film was judged as o. The results of the respective are shown in table 2 below.
[ Table 2]
TABLE 2
Figure BDA0002648223410000291
The antireflection layer formed on the cured films produced from the photocurable composition for imprints of comparative example 1 not containing the component (a) and the component (d) and the photocurable composition for imprints of comparative example 2 not containing the component (a) resulted in the occurrence of cracks after the heat resistance test. Further, the cured film produced from the photocurable composition for imprints of comparative example 3 containing the component (a) but not the component (d) was a result of cracks occurring on the side wall of the cured film after the development step of cleaning the uncured portion with an organic solvent. From the above results, the cured film obtained from the photocurable composition for imprinting of the present invention exhibited high abbe number, high refractive index, high transparency, and resistance to thermal yellowing, and exhibited the characteristics desired for a lens for a high-resolution camera module, in which neither cracks nor wrinkles were generated in the antireflection layer having the upper layer of the cured film by heat treatment at 175 ℃.
[ production of lens ]
The photocurable composition for imprint 1 prepared in example 1, the photocurable composition for imprint 4 prepared in example 4, and the photocurable composition for imprint 8 prepared in example 8 were molded into a lens shape on a glass substrate as a support by the above-mentioned method for producing a molded body using a nickel mold (a total of 15 lens molds each having a diameter of 2mm and a depth of 300 μm were arranged in 3 columns by 5 columns) and a nano printer, respectively. The mold used was subjected to mold release treatment in advance with NOVEC (registered trademark) 1720 (manufactured by ス リ ー エ ム ジャパン corporation). The glass substrate used was subjected to adhesion treatment by coating a solution prepared by diluting an adhesion promoter (product name: KBM-5103) made by shin-Etsu chemical Co., Ltd.) with PGMEA in a concentration of 5 mass% and drying the solution. After removing the cured product from the mold, the cured product was heated with a hot plate at 100 ℃ for 10 minutes to produce a convex lens on the glass substrate subjected to the adhesion treatment.
The convex lenses obtained on the glass substrate were measured for the lens height (thickness) before and after the heat test by the non-contact surface property measuring apparatus, and the change rate thereof was calculated from the following formula "[ (lens height before heating-lens height after heating)/lens height before heating ] × 100", and the dimensional stability by heating was evaluated. Further, the presence or absence of the occurrence of cracks in the convex lens after the heat test was observed with a microscope attached to the non-contact surface property measuring apparatus. The heating test is a test in which the convex lens obtained on the glass substrate is heated on a hot plate at 175 ℃ for 2 minutes and 30 seconds, and then cooled to room temperature (about 23 ℃). The results are shown in table 3 below.
[ Table 3]
TABLE 3
Figure BDA0002648223410000301
As shown in Table 3, the convex lens obtained from the photocurable composition for imprints of the present invention exhibited small changes in lens height (change rate of 0.20% or less) and high dimensional stability even after a thermal history of 2 minutes and 30 seconds at 175 ℃.
