Description
本願は、2010年8月27日に、日本に出願された特願2010-190880号に基づき優先権を主張し、その内容をここに援用する。 The present invention relates to a photoresist resin composition.
This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2010-190880 filed in Japan on August 27, 2010, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
一般的にフォトレジストの感度の向上はノボラック樹脂の分子量を低くすることにより達成される。しかし、この手法では耐熱性が悪くなったり、未露光部の残膜率が低下したり、露光部との溶解速度差が充分に得られず、露光部と未露光部との現像コントラストの低下を招く。そして、その結果、解像度の低下という問題が発生する。一方、ノボラック樹脂の分子量を高くすると、耐熱性および解像度は改善されるが、レジスト膜の感度の低下が発生する。すなわち一方を改良しようとすると、他方が悪くなるというきわめて深刻な不都合を生じる。
これまで、この不都合に対して、様々な改良が試みられてきている。しかし、未だに感度、残膜率、現像コントラスト、解像度、基板との接着力、回路線幅均一度などのような液晶表示装置回路用フォトレジスト組成物の好ましい特性のうちいずれか一つの特性も犠牲にせずに、上記の特性を向上させることが可能であり、かつ各々の産業工程に適用することが可能な、多様な液晶表示装置回路用フォトレジスト組成物は開発されていない。そのため、これに対する要求は続いている。 A novolak phenol resin obtained by reacting m / p-cresol and formaldehyde in the presence of an acid catalyst is generally used for a positive photoresist for a liquid crystal display device circuit. In order to adjust or improve the characteristics of the photoresist, studies have been made on the ratio of m / p-cresol used as a starting phenol, the molecular weight of the phenol resin, the molecular weight distribution, and the like. Patent Document 1 discloses the use of a method of fractionating a novolak resin in order to improve photoresist characteristics, and the above contents are well known to those skilled in the art. .
In general, improvement of the sensitivity of the photoresist is achieved by lowering the molecular weight of the novolak resin. However, with this method, the heat resistance is deteriorated, the remaining film ratio of the unexposed part is reduced, or the difference in dissolution rate from the exposed part is not sufficiently obtained, and the development contrast between the exposed part and the unexposed part is lowered. Invite. As a result, the problem of a decrease in resolution occurs. On the other hand, when the molecular weight of the novolak resin is increased, the heat resistance and resolution are improved, but the sensitivity of the resist film is lowered. That is, trying to improve one causes a very serious inconvenience that the other gets worse.
Until now, various improvements have been attempted for this inconvenience. However, it still sacrifices any one of the preferable characteristics of the liquid crystal display device photoresist composition such as sensitivity, residual film ratio, development contrast, resolution, adhesion to the substrate, circuit line width uniformity, etc. However, various photoresist compositions for liquid crystal display device circuits that can improve the above-described characteristics and can be applied to each industrial process have not been developed. Therefore, the demand for this continues.

本発明は、フォトレジスト用樹脂組成物に関するものである。 The present invention is described in detail below.
The present invention relates to a resin composition for photoresist.
特に、得られたノボラック型フェノール樹脂をフォトレジスト用に適用する場合は、反応モル比を0.5~1.0とすることが好ましい。これにより、フォトレジスト用として好適な分子量を有する樹脂組成物が得られる。上記反応モル比が上記上限値を超えると、樹脂組成物はフォトレジスト用とするには過剰に高分子量化したり、反応条件によってはゲル化したりすることがある。また、上記下限値未満では、低核体成分の含有量が相対的に多くなるため、これを除去する際の効率が低下することがある。 The reaction molar ratio (F / P) of the phenols (P) and the aldehydes (F) is not particularly limited, and is a known reaction molar ratio in the production of a novolac type phenol resin, and one aspect of the present invention is Can be implemented.
In particular, when the obtained novolac type phenol resin is applied to a photoresist, the reaction molar ratio is preferably 0.5 to 1.0. Thereby, a resin composition having a molecular weight suitable for a photoresist is obtained. When the reaction molar ratio exceeds the upper limit, the resin composition may be excessively high molecular weight for use in a photoresist, or may be gelled depending on reaction conditions. In addition, if the content is less than the lower limit, the content of the low-nuclear component is relatively increased, and thus the efficiency in removing this may be reduced.
また、本発明のフォトレジスト用樹脂組成物を製造するのに使用される反応溶媒としては、適度に非極性な溶媒が好適であり、例えばヘキサン、ベンゼン、キシレンなどが挙げられる。 An acid catalyst is generally used for the reaction of the phenols and aldehydes. The acid catalyst is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include organic carboxylic acids such as oxalic acid and acetic acid. Among these, it can also be used individually or in mixture of 2 or more types. The amount of the acid catalyst used is not particularly limited, but is preferably 0.01 to 5% by weight based on the phenols. In addition, when a photoresist resin is used in the photoresist composition, a small amount of catalyst remains in the resin in order to prevent interference with the characteristics of the photoresist. Of course, in the process of synthesizing the resin, the catalyst may be removed by a general removal method (neutralization, water washing, filter filtration, etc.).
Moreover, as a reaction solvent used for manufacturing the resin composition for photoresists of this invention, a moderately nonpolar solvent is suitable, for example, hexane, benzene, xylene, etc. are mentioned.
上記重量平均分子量は、ポリスチレン標準物質を用いて作成した検量線をもとに計算されるものである。GPC測定は、テトラヒドロフランを溶出溶媒とし、流量1.0ml/min、カラム温度40℃の条件で示差屈折計を検出器として用いて実施することができる。用いることのできる装置は、例えば、
1)本体:TOSOH社製・「HLC-8020」
2)検出器:波長280nmにセットしたTOSOH社製・「UV-8011」
3)分析用カラム:昭和電工社製・「SHODEX KF-802、KF-803、KF-805」をそれぞれ使用することができる。 The phenol resin used for producing the photoresist resin composition of the present invention is preferably a phenol resin having a weight average molecular weight of 1,000 to 20,000 daltons as measured by GPC (Gel Permeation Chromatography), more preferably a weight average molecular weight. Is between 3000 and 10,000 daltons. By setting the weight average molecular weight of the phenol resin to be used within the above range, the sensitivity, heat resistance, and remaining film ratio of the resin composition for photoresist can be optimized.
The weight average molecular weight is calculated based on a calibration curve created using a polystyrene standard. GPC measurement can be performed using tetrahydrofuran as an elution solvent, a flow rate of 1.0 ml / min, and a column temperature of 40 ° C. using a differential refractometer as a detector. An apparatus that can be used is, for example,
1) Body: "HLC-8020" manufactured by TOSOH
2) Detector: “UV-8011” manufactured by TOSOH with wavelength set to 280 nm
3) Analytical column: “SHODEX KF-802, KF-803, KF-805” manufactured by Showa Denko KK can be used.
得られる樹脂の酸性基当量は、使用する酸性基を有するモノマーの分子構造の選択、あるいは酸性基を有するモノマーと有しないモノマーとの存在比を変えて共重合することなどにより制御することができる。
環状オレフィン樹脂を製造する方法としては、従来公知の手法を適用することができる。例えば、配位重合触媒であるニッケル化合物あるいはパラジウム化合物などを用いて付加重合させることができる。ニッケル化合物の例としては例えば化学式:EnNi(C6F5)2で表されるような触媒を挙げることができ、この化学式では、nは1または2であり、そしてEは中性の配位子を表わす。nが1である場合、Eは好ましくは、トルエン、ベンゼン、及びメシチレンのようなπ-アレーン配位子である。nが2である場合、Eは好ましくは、ジエチルエーテル、THF(テトラヒドロフラン)、エチルアセテート、及びジオキサンから選択される。例えば(トルエン)ビス(ペルフルオロフェニル)ニッケル、(メシチレン)ビス(ペルフルオロフェニル)ニッケル、(ベンゼン)ビス(ペルフルオロフェニル)ニッケル、ビス(テトラヒドロフラン)ビス(ペルフルオロフェニル)ニッケル、ビス(エチルアセテート)ビス(ペルフルオロフェニル)ニッケル、及びビス(ジオキサン)ビス(ペルフルオロフェニル)ニッケルなどを挙げることができる。詳細についてはPCT WO 97/33198、PCT WO 00/20472、特表2010-523766号公報、特表平11-505880号公報等に述べられている。 The acidic group equivalent of the cyclic olefin resin having an acidic group in the side chain used for the production of the photoresist resin composition of the present invention is not particularly limited because it depends on its molecular structure, but is 600 g / mol or less. Further, it is preferably 400 g / mol or less. If the acidic group equivalent is less than the above specified value, inorganic alkalis such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide and aqueous ammonia used during development, organic alkalis such as tetramethylammonium hydroxide, ethylamine, triethylamine and triethanolamine It becomes soluble in aqueous solution. When the acidic group equivalent is larger than the upper limit, the solubility in the alkaline aqueous solution is difficult to be exhibited, and it is difficult to perform pattern processing. The amount of acidic groups in the resin can be measured by titration of the resin solution using a standard alkaline solution.
The acidic group equivalent of the obtained resin can be controlled by selecting the molecular structure of the monomer having an acidic group to be used, or by copolymerizing by changing the abundance ratio between the monomer having an acidic group and the monomer having no acidic group. .
A conventionally known method can be applied as a method for producing the cyclic olefin resin. For example, addition polymerization can be performed using a nickel compound or palladium compound which is a coordination polymerization catalyst. Examples of nickel compounds include catalysts such as those represented by the chemical formula: E n Ni (C 6 F 5 ) 2 , where n is 1 or 2 and E is neutral. Represents a ligand. When n is 1, E is preferably a π-arene ligand such as toluene, benzene, and mesitylene. When n is 2, E is preferably selected from diethyl ether, THF (tetrahydrofuran), ethyl acetate, and dioxane.
