Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a color filter ink composition for use in the production of color filters having excellent optical properties used in liquid crystal display devices, color separation devices, sensors and the like. The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a color filter manufactured by an inkjet method.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a method of combining three primary color filters of red, green, blue, or yellow, magenta, and cyan has been used for colorizing liquid crystal display elements and solid-state image pickup elements. Although there are several methods for forming these color filters, the most basic method is the so-called dyeing method. The method of producing a color filter by the dyeing method is a film of a synthetic resin having a transparent cationic group in the form of a thin film such as a stripe or mosaic (called a pattern) on the surface of a substrate such as glass or a silicon wafer. The basic principle is to provide a film of a protein-based natural high molecular substance such as gelatin, casein, and glue to form a film to be colored, and dye (color) this with a dye. Dyeing method color
The following three methods are known as specific filter manufacturing processes.

(1) After a film to be colored is provided on the surface of the substrate, the pattern obtained by exposing and developing through a mask is dyed to form a colored layer. Then a non-coloring protective coat
A coating film is provided on the entire surface, and a second coating film to be colored is provided thereon by the same operation as above. Hereinafter, if necessary, colored layers are sequentially laminated.

(2) After a film to be colored is provided on the surface of the substrate, the pattern obtained by exposing and developing through a mask is dyed to form a colored layer, and then a dye is fixed with tannic acid or the like. Combined with dye-proof treatment. A second coating to be colored is provided by the same operation. Thereafter, if necessary, a colored layer is formed on the same substrate surface.

(3) A film to be colored (coloring film) is provided on the surface of the substrate. After providing a positive resist layer thereon, the film to be colored is exposed and developed through a mask to dye the exposed film to be colored, and then the positive resist layer is peeled off to form a colored portion. By repeating the operation after providing the positive resist layer, the same colored film is dyed into a desired pattern in a plurality of colors.

Color produced by the above process
Except for special ones, the filters are normally three primary colors R (red), G (green), B (blue) or three complementary primary colors Y (yellow), M (magenta), C (cyan). , (M may be omitted). The most important characteristic required for the color filter is the optical characteristic, and the spectral characteristic of each colored layer greatly controls the value of the final product.

Further, for heat treatment encountered in the process of manufacturing a liquid crystal display device having a color filter, for example, for a sputtering process for providing a transparent electrode layer, and for light applied during use as a final product. It has a high degree of tolerance and must not impair certain optical properties. Of course, the applied dye must also have good solubility in water (rate of dissolution and solubility) and be stable for a long time in an acidic dyebath.

Further, in the case of involving a step requiring fixing treatment, it is required that the fixing treatment effect is excellent. By the way, since protein type polymer substances such as gelatin, casein, and glue have a cationic group, they are dyed (colored) with a water-soluble anionic dye. When a photo-curable synthetic resin substrate is used instead of these, by retaining a cationic group in the resin component, it is dyed with a water-soluble anionic dye like a protein-based natural polymer substance. Become so.

As described above, the dyeing method has a feature that an extremely fine color pattern can be freely formed.
Since many manufacturing processes such as a photolithography process, a dyeing process, and a cleaning / fixing process are performed depending on the number of colors to be dyed, there is a high risk that yield may be reduced due to dust adhesion during manufacturing. Further, since the coloring density is almost proportional to the film thickness of the dyed resin film, the fluctuation of the film thickness causes unevenness of color and deteriorates the quality of the product. Depending on the order of dyeing, color unevenness may occur due to contamination or desorption of other colors. Further, a liquid crystal display element manufacturer has strongly demanded a method of reducing the number of steps for manufacturing a color filter to improve the yield and make the cost lower.

Recently, the inventors of the present invention formed a photosensitive resin thin film having a very high dyeability with an anionic dye on a transparent substrate and irradiating it with an energy ray to cure the thin film to form a cured film layer. Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 7-77607 discloses a method for producing a color filter in which a dye solution is ejected at a predetermined position by an inkjet method to form a desired colored pattern with high density and accuracy.

[0011]

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION According to the present invention, a highly dyeable photosensitive resin thin film is formed on a transparent substrate, and a dye solution is selectively jetted onto the thin film layer by an inkjet method to form a desired colored pattern. It is an object of the present invention to provide a blue ink composition for a color filter, which has an extremely high dyeing property and is excellent in stability and which is suitable for obtaining a color filter by wet treatment after formation and a method for producing a color filter using the same.

EFFECT OF THE INVENTION The ink composition of the present invention has a high solubility of dyes, is excellent in stability over time, and does not cause clogging of an inkjet printer head. This ink composition is
It has the effect of increasing the affinity of the dye for the highly dyeable photosensitive resin thin film used in the present invention and greatly reducing color bleeding. Therefore, a highly accurate colored pattern can be obtained. In particular, when the ink composition of the present invention is combined with a resin having a tertiary amino group as an anionic dye-dyeable polymer, a color filter having a high concentration can be obtained only by hot water treatment without fixing treatment. According to the present invention, it is not necessary to carry out the patterning and dye fixing treatment such as conventional dyeing three times, and the process is remarkably simplified. or,
The yield reduction due to dust adhesion in the conventional developing process and dyeing process is also very small. Further, the control of the jetting position of the dye solution by the inkjet method is easy, and the accuracy can sufficiently meet the user's needs.
