In recent years, light-shielding films are frequently used for display devices, sensors, and the like. As a method for producing the light-shielding film, a light-shielding film is formed on a desired support substrate by a method such as a vacuum film forming method, a plating method, or a printing method (for example, Patent Documents 1, 2, 3, 4). reference).
For example, a method of forming a chromium thin film on a glass substrate using a sputtering apparatus, then laminating a photosensitive resist, and obtaining a desired pattern image using a photolithography technique has been adopted.

  However, the light-shielding film obtained by this method has problems that it takes time to produce, the production cost is high, and it is difficult to maintain in-plane uniformity. In recent years, with the increase in the size of the support substrate, the light-shielding film requires a large film forming apparatus and a clean room in which these are installed, and the capital investment has become enormous.

  On the other hand, methods of applying a light-shielding pigment such as carbon or titanium oxynitride together with a resin or transferring the applied film as a transfer film have been attempted. A process that requires a film thickness and causes a surface level difference equivalent to the film thickness due to pattern formation, or the resin is thermally cured by baking and heating exceeding 200 ° C., and the light-shielding fine particles are fixed at a high concentration in the cured resin. There is a problem that it is difficult to form a light-shielding film on a support substrate having poor heat resistance and to form an inexpensive light-shielding film by lowering the temperature (for example, see Patent Document 5).

  Examples of the light-shielding thin film having a visible light transmittance of less than 1% of the present invention include a metal film, a metal oxide film, a metal nitride film, and a fluorinated metal film. Among these, the metal film which has silver, chromium, aluminum, and nickel as a main component is preferable from a viewpoint of light-shielding property and workability. The metal film may be a laminate of a plurality of types of metal films. Moreover, an alloy may be sufficient. When an alloy is used, it is effective for the resistance of the photosensitive resin layer to a developer and a stripping solution and prevention of hillocks. On the other hand, in applications where light absorbency is required, black or brown films such as metal oxide, metal nitride, metal fluoride, titanium black, chromium nitride, chromium oxynitride, black nickel, copper oxide, silver oxide, diamond Like carbon is preferably a light-shielding thin film, and a metal or other thin film may be laminated or contained. The thickness of the light-shielding thin film is not particularly limited, but is preferably in the range of 0.02 μm to 2 μm from the viewpoint of practicality. Furthermore, the range of 0.02 μm to 1 μm is more preferable from the viewpoint of eliminating an undesirable characteristic that a surface level difference equivalent to the film thickness is generated by forming a thin film pattern. From the viewpoint of ease in pattern formation by etching, 0.02 μm to 0.5 μm is particularly preferable. The method of forming the light-shielding thin film is not limited, and the film is formed by a method such as a vacuum film-forming method, an electrodeposition method, or an electroless plating method.

The negative photosensitive resin layer or thermosetting resin layer used in the light-shielding transfer film of the present invention functions as an adhesive layer and remains on the transfer substrate even after curing. Therefore, there is no particular limitation as long as it has adhesiveness. Adhesiveness should just have the intensity | strength which both interfaces do not peel even if it peels a temporary support body irrespective of the presence or absence of the process which hardens an adhesive layer with light or a heat | fever after transcribe | transferring to a to-be-transferred substrate. Adhesion can be easily adjusted by selecting the substrate to be transferred, the temporary support, and the thin film in addition to the composition of the adhesive layer. Furthermore, when the light-shielding thin film is patterned and the transparency of the adhesive layer at the location where the thin film is removed is required, visible light transparency may be required in addition to the adhesiveness. In this case, a resin having necessary visible light transmittance may be used. The visible light transmittance is preferably 50% or more.
The positive photosensitive resin layer may contain a black pigment. As the black pigment, organic or inorganic pigments can be used alone or in admixture of two or more. Among black pigments, pigments having high color developability and high heat resistance, particularly pigments having high heat decomposition resistance are preferable. Specific examples of black pigments include graphite, carbon black, aniline black, anthraquinone black pigment, perylene black pigment, amber, titanium black, titanium carbon, synthetic iron black, black nickel, manganese dioxide, specifically CI. Pigment Black 1, 6, 7, 12, 20, 31 etc. are mentioned. Of these, titanium black is preferred because of its surface hardness and light shielding properties. From the viewpoint of obtaining high light shielding properties, titanium black preferably has a high nitrogen reduction rate with ammonia gas, and preferably has a small particle size and a narrow particle size distribution. Titanium black may be surface-treated with a resin or the like in advance, but it is preferable from the viewpoint of surface hardness that the resin is well compatible with the photosensitive resin and forms a high crosslink density with the photosensitive resin during heat curing. Further, the black pigment has a maximum particle size of 50 nm or more and less than 200 nm. Preferably, it is 60 nm or more and less than 190 nm. More preferably, it is 70 nm or more and less than 180 nm. If the maximum particle size is too small, the particle size becomes expensive, and is not suitable for mass production. If the maximum particle size is too large, defects in the formation of a high-definition pattern, pattern accuracy, and shape occur. Here, the particle diameter of the pigment is collected by measuring with the photon correlation method (PCS) (N5 manufactured by Beckman Coulter, Inc.) based on the dynamic light scattering method based on the Brownian motion of the pigment dispersed in the solvent. Value. When the black pigment is used in the positive photosensitive resin composition, the content is preferably 10 to 80% by mass, more preferably 50 to 75% by mass with respect to the total amount of the positive photosensitive resin composition. . By using the content of the black pigment at 10% by mass or more, the light shielding property can be further improved. Moreover, sufficient surface hardness can be obtained by using content of a black pigment at 80 mass% or less.
Further, in order to improve the reliability of the film such as adhesion to a thin film and prevention of cracks, the adhesive layer may contain a filler, a coloring pigment, and an extender pigment. Further, a material that is cured by heat or light after bonding may be used. If the material is photocured, the process is simplified, which is preferable in accordance with the object of the present invention. Furthermore, in order to raise reliability, the material hardened | cured with heat after photocuring may be sufficient. A material that emits less gas during the curing process is preferred. If there is a lot of gas release, pinholes are easily formed in the thin film.
The visible light described in the present invention means a light having a visible wavelength necessary for practical use. For example, the transmittance is obtained with green 550 nm as a representative wavelength.

  The cover film used for the light-shielding transfer film of the present invention is used as necessary. The cover film is preferably chemically and thermally stable and easily peelable from the negative photosensitive resin layer or the thermosetting resin layer (adhesive layer). Specifically, a thin sheet-like material such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, polyvinyl alcohol or the like having a high surface smoothness is preferable. What gave the surface the mold release process in order to provide peelability is also contained.

In FIG. 3, the schematic diagram which shows an example of pattern formation using the transfer film of this invention was shown. As shown in FIG. 3, the cover film of the light-shielding transfer film is peeled off to expose the negative photosensitive resin layer or the thermosetting resin layer, and then the negative photosensitive resin is applied to the transfer target substrate (support, glass substrate). The surface of the photosensitive resin layer or the thermosetting resin layer is heat-pressed so that it touches, and the negative photosensitive resin layer or the thermosetting resin layer, the light-shielding layer, the positive photosensitive resin layer, the temporary photosensitive resin layer, the temporary photosensitive resin layer, The support is laminated.

Further, the positive photosensitive resin layer and the light shielding film layer are patterned in an image shape by photolithography for peeling the positive photosensitive resin layer, and the positive photosensitive resin layer is removed. In addition, you may perform peeling of a temporary support after exposure of each photosensitive resin layer. As described above, a desired light-shielding film pattern is obtained on the transfer substrate.

4 and 5 are schematic views showing other examples of pattern formation using the light-shielding transfer film of the present invention. As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the cover film of the light-shielding transfer film is peeled off and heated so that the surface of the negative photosensitive resin layer or the thermosetting resin layer touches the substrate to be transferred (support, glass substrate). A negative photosensitive resin layer or a thermosetting resin layer, a light-shielding layer, and a temporary support are laminated in this order on the transfer substrate.
The temporary support is peeled off, and the negative photosensitive resin layer is photocured by exposure from the transferred substrate side (in the case of a thermosetting resin layer, it is heated and cured from the support side).
Further, in order to pattern the light shielding film layer in an image shape, in this case, a positive photosensitive resin layer is provided on the upper surface of the light shielding layer with a laminate, a spin coater, etc. Then, a predetermined portion is exposed through a photomask, the positive photosensitive resin layer is developed, the light shielding layer portion covered with the removed positive photosensitive resin layer is etched, and further, the positive photosensitive resin layer is etched. The positive photosensitive resin layer and the light-shielding film layer are patterned into an image by photolithography for peeling the resin layer, and the positive photosensitive resin layer is removed.
In this case, a negative photosensitive resin layer may be used instead of the positive photosensitive resin layer. The negative photosensitive resin layer on the transfer substrate may be cured by irradiation with active energy rays from the transfer substrate side, or may be cured by irradiation with active energy rays during pattern formation. Also, heat can be used in combination.

As described above, a desired light-shielding film pattern is obtained on the transfer substrate.
In the light-shielding transfer film of the present invention, after forming a light-shielding thin film on a release film, a positive-type photosensitive resin layer and a temporary support are laminated, and before and after the positive-type photosensitive resin layer of the light-shielding thin film Preferably, a negative photosensitive resin layer or a thermosetting resin layer (adhesive layer) is laminated on the surface opposite to the surface on which the layers are laminated. In addition, the positive photosensitive resin layer is directly formed on the light-shielding thin film on the release film, and then the temporary support is laminated, and the surface opposite to the surface on which the positive photosensitive resin layer of the light-shielding thin film is laminated (separated). A negative photosensitive resin layer or a thermosetting resin layer (adhesive layer) may be laminated on the surface from which the mold film has been peeled off. Also, after forming a positive photosensitive resin layer on the temporary support and pasting it together with the light-shielding thin film formed separately on the release film, the release film on the light-shielding thin film side is peeled off, You may laminate | stack a negative photosensitive resin layer or a thermosetting resin layer (adhesion layer) on the opposite surface (surface which peeled the release film) from the surface which laminated | stacked the positive photosensitive resin layer.
