The method of doing can also be employ | adopted.

Color filter and production method thereof The color filter of the present invention comprises a colored layer containing the present colorant.

  As a method for producing a color filter, first, the following method may be mentioned. First, a light shielding layer (black matrix) is formed on the surface of the substrate so as to divide a portion where pixels are formed, if necessary. Next, for example, after applying a green liquid composition of the radiation-sensitive colored composition of the present invention on the substrate, pre-baking is performed to evaporate the solvent, thereby forming a coating film. Subsequently, after exposing this coating film through a photomask, it develops using an alkali developing solution, and the unexposed part of a coating film is dissolved and removed. Thereafter, post-baking is performed to form a pixel array in which green pixel patterns are arranged in a predetermined arrangement.

  Subsequently, each radiation-sensitive colored composition of red or blue is used, and the radiation-sensitive colored composition is applied, pre-baked, exposed, developed, and post-baked in the same manner as described above, so that the red pixel array and blue Are sequentially formed on the same substrate. Thereby, a color filter in which pixel arrays of the three primary colors of red, green and blue are arranged on the substrate is obtained. However, in the present invention, the order of forming pixels of each color is not limited to the above.

  A black matrix can be formed by forming a metal thin film such as chromium formed by sputtering or vapor deposition into a desired pattern using a photolithographic method. It can also be formed in the same manner as in the case of forming the above-mentioned pixel using a sexually colored composition.

Examples of the substrate used when forming the color filter include glass, silicon, polycarbonate, polyester, aromatic polyamide, polyamideimide, and polyimide.
In addition, these substrates may be subjected to appropriate pretreatment such as chemical treatment with a silane coupling agent or the like, plasma treatment, ion plating, sputtering, gas phase reaction method, vacuum deposition, etc., if desired.

  When applying the radiation-sensitive coloring composition to the substrate, an appropriate coating method such as a spray method, a roll coating method, a spin coating method (spin coating method), a slit die coating method, or a bar coating method may be employed. In particular, it is preferable to employ a spin coating method or a slit die coating method.

  Pre-baking is usually performed by combining vacuum drying and heat drying. The drying under reduced pressure is usually performed until the pressure reaches 50 to 200 Pa. Moreover, the conditions of heat drying are 70-110 degreeC normally for about 1 to 10 minutes.

  The coating thickness is usually 0.6 to 8 μm, preferably 1.2 to 5 μm, as the film thickness after drying.

  Examples of the radiation light source used when forming at least one selected from the pixel and the black matrix include, for example, a xenon lamp, a halogen lamp, a tungsten lamp, a high pressure mercury lamp, an ultrahigh pressure mercury lamp, a metal halide lamp, a medium pressure mercury lamp, and a low pressure. Examples thereof include a lamp light source such as a mercury lamp, and a laser light source such as an argon ion laser, a YAG laser, a XeCl excimer laser, and a nitrogen laser. An ultraviolet LED can also be used as the exposure light source. The wavelength is preferably radiation in the range of 190 to 450 nm.

Exposure of the radiation is generally preferred 10~10,000J / m ^2.
Examples of the alkali developer include sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, tetramethylammonium hydroxide, choline, 1,8-diazabicyclo- [5.4.0] -7-. An aqueous solution of undecene, 1,5-diazabicyclo- [4.3.0] -5-nonene or the like is preferable.

For example, an appropriate amount of a water-soluble organic solvent such as methanol or ethanol, a surfactant, or the like can be added to the alkaline developer. In addition, it is usually washed with water after alkali development.
As a development processing method, a shower development method, a spray development method, a dip (immersion) development method, a paddle (liquid accumulation) development method, or the like can be applied. The development conditions are preferably 5 to 300 seconds at room temperature.

The post-baking conditions are usually 180 to 280 ° C. and about 10 to 60 minutes.
The film thickness of the pixel thus formed is usually 0.5 to 5 μm, preferably 1.0 to 3 μm.

  Further, as a second method for producing a color filter, a method of obtaining pixels of each color by an ink jet method disclosed in JP-A-7-318723 and JP-A-2000-310706 can be employed. . In this method, first, a partition having a light shielding function is formed on the surface of the substrate. Next, for example, a green liquid composition of the thermosetting coloring composition of the present invention is discharged into the formed partition wall by an inkjet apparatus, and then prebaked to evaporate the solvent. Next, this coating film is exposed as necessary and then cured by post-baking to form a green pixel pattern.

  Subsequently, red or blue thermosetting coloring compositions are used to sequentially form a red pixel pattern and a blue pixel pattern on the same substrate in the same manner as described above. Thereby, a color filter in which pixel patterns of the three primary colors of red, green and blue are arranged on the substrate is obtained. However, in the present invention, the order of forming pixels of each color is not limited to the above.

In addition, since the partition plays not only a light shielding function but also a function for preventing the color mixing of the thermosetting coloring compositions discharged in the respective sections, it is compared with the black matrix used in the first method described above. The film thickness is thick. Therefore, a partition is normally formed using a black radiation sensitive composition.
The substrate used when forming the color filter, the light source of radiation, and the pre-baking and post-baking methods and conditions are the same as in the first method described above. In this way, the film thickness of the pixel formed by the ink jet method is approximately the same as the height of the partition wall.

A protective film is formed on the pixel pattern thus obtained as necessary, and then a transparent conductive film is formed by sputtering. After forming the transparent conductive film, a spacer can be further formed to form a color filter. The spacer is usually formed using a radiation-sensitive composition, but may be a light-shielding spacer (black spacer). In this case, a colored radiation-sensitive composition in which a black colorant is dispersed is used, but the colored composition of the present invention can also be suitably used for forming such a black spacer.
Since the color filter of the present invention thus obtained has extremely high luminance and color purity, it is useful for color liquid crystal display elements, color imaging tube elements, color sensors, organic EL display elements, electronic paper, etc. It is useful as a color filter for liquid crystal display elements and a color filter for organic EL display elements. When the color filter of the present invention is used for a color liquid crystal display element, it is particularly preferable to use it as a color filter for a white light emitting diode light source liquid crystal display device.

The color liquid crystal display element provided with the color filter of the present invention may be a transmissive type or a reflective type, and can take an appropriate structure. For example, the color filter is formed on a substrate different from the driving substrate on which the thin film transistor (TFT) is arranged, and the driving substrate and the substrate on which the color filter is formed are opposed to each other with a liquid crystal layer interposed therebetween. In addition, a substrate in which a color filter is formed on the surface of a driving substrate on which a thin film transistor (TFT) is disposed, and an ITO (indium oxide doped with tin) electrode or IZO (acid value indium and zinc oxide) It is also possible to adopt a structure in which the substrate on which the electrode is formed is opposed to the liquid crystal layer. The latter structure has the advantage that the aperture ratio can be remarkably improved, and a bright and high-definition liquid crystal display element can be obtained.

As the white LED, for example, a white LED that obtains white light by color mixing by combining a red LED, a green LED, and a blue LED, a white LED that obtains white light by color mixing by combining a blue LED, a red LED, and a green phosphor, and a blue LED White LED that obtains white light by mixing colors, red LED and green light emitting phosphor, white LED that obtains white light by mixing colors of blue LED and YAG phosphor, blue LED, orange light emitting phosphor and green light emitting fluorescence A white LED that obtains white light by color mixing by combining the body, a white LED that obtains white light by color mixing by combining an ultraviolet LED, a red light emitting phosphor, a green light emitting phosphor, and a blue light emitting phosphor can be exemplified.
