 現代では様々な分野において、樹脂を含む樹脂組成物から製造された樹脂材料を活用することが行われている。
 例えば、ポリイミドは、耐熱性及び絶縁性等に優れるため、様々な用途に適用されている。上記用途としては、特に限定されないが、実装用の半導体デバイスを例に挙げると、絶縁膜や封止材の材料、又は、保護膜としての利用が挙げられる。また、フレキシブル基板のベースフィルムやカバーレイなどとしても用いられている。
2. Description of the Related Art Nowadays, resin materials produced from resin compositions containing resins are being used in various fields.
For example, polyimide is used in various applications due to its excellent heat resistance and insulating properties. The applications include, but are not limited to, materials for insulating films and sealing materials, or protective films for semiconductor devices for mounting. Polyimide is also used as a base film or coverlay for flexible substrates.
 例えば上述した用途において、ポリイミドは、ポリイミド前駆体を含む樹脂組成物の形態で用いられる。
 このような樹脂組成物を、例えば塗布等により基材に適用して樹脂層を形成し、その後、必要に応じて露光、現像を行った後に加熱を行うことにより、硬化物を基材上に形成することができる。
 ポリイミド前駆体は、加熱により環化され、硬化物中においてポリイミドとなる。
 樹脂組成物は、公知の塗布方法等により適用可能であるため、例えば、適用される樹脂組成物の適用時の形状、大きさ、適用位置等の設計の自由度が高いなど、製造上の適応性に優れるといえる。ポリイミドが有する高い性能に加え、このような製造上の適応性に優れる観点から、上述の樹脂組成物の産業上の応用展開がますます期待されている。
For example, in the above-mentioned applications, polyimide is used in the form of a resin composition containing a polyimide precursor.
Such a resin composition is applied to a substrate, for example by coating, to form a resin layer, and then, if necessary, exposed to light, developed, and then heated, whereby a cured product can be formed on the substrate.
The polyimide precursor is cyclized by heating to become a polyimide in the cured product.
Since the resin composition can be applied by a known coating method, etc., it can be said to have excellent adaptability in manufacturing, for example, high degree of freedom in designing the shape, size, application position, etc. of the resin composition when applied. In addition to the high performance of polyimide, from the viewpoint of such excellent adaptability in manufacturing, the above-mentioned resin composition is expected to be increasingly applied in industrial applications.

(Method for producing the cured product)
The method for producing a cured product of the present invention includes a decompression step of exposing a resin layer to a pressure lower than 101,325 Pa, and a heating step of heating the resin layer under the above pressure, wherein the resin layer is a layer formed from a resin composition containing a polyimide precursor and a solvent, and satisfies at least one of the following conditions 1 and 2:
Condition 1: The resin composition further contains a compound A having at least one bond selected from a urethane bond and a urea bond, and at least one functional group selected from a tert-butyl group, a hydroxyl group, and a group containing an ethylenically unsaturated bond.
Condition 2: The method includes a step of contacting the resin layer with a treatment liquid containing the compound A prior to the depressurization step.
 本発明の硬化物の製造方法は、例えば、半導体デバイスの絶縁膜、再配線層用層間絶縁膜、ストレスバッファ膜等の形成に用いることができ、再配線層用層間絶縁膜の形成に用いられることが好ましい。 The method for producing a cured product of the present invention can be used, for example, to form insulating films for semiconductor devices, interlayer insulating films for redistribution layers, stress buffer films, etc., and is preferably used to form interlayer insulating films for redistribution layers.
 本発明の硬化物の製造方法によれば、耐熱信頼性及び耐薬品性に優れた硬化物が得られる。
 上記効果が得られるメカニズムは不明であるが、下記のように推測される。
According to the method for producing a cured product of the present invention, a cured product having excellent heat resistance reliability and chemical resistance can be obtained.
The mechanism by which the above effects are obtained is unclear, but is speculated to be as follows.
 本発明の硬化物の製造方法において減圧工程を行うことにより、膜中の残存溶剤、重合開始剤分解物等の低分子量成分が揮発して、後の工程でのアウトガスが少ない硬化物を作製することができる。
 また、一般的に、ポリイミド前駆体を加熱硬化するために熱塩基発生剤が用いられている。熱塩基発生剤は加熱時に分解して塩基を発生させ、ポリイミド前駆体の環化反応(イミド化)を促進させる触媒として働くと考えられている。
 上記減圧によりアウトガスを減少させた場合、通常の熱塩基発生剤を用いると、減圧により塩基発生剤又はこれが分解して発生する塩基の一部も揮発してしまい、イミド化率が不十分となる場合が有った。
 そこで、本発明者らは、減圧下(更には、減圧加熱下)でも揮発しにくい熱塩基発生剤として、上述の化合物Aを用いることを見出した。化合物Aは、ポリイミド前駆体を含む膜に対して良好な親和性を有しているため減圧下で揮発しにくく、アウトガスの発生の抑制及びイミド化率の向上という効果を両立できる。
 特に、上記化合物Aが、塩基性基(特にアミノ基)が保護基(t-BOC、Fmocなど、特にt-BOC)により保護された構造を有する場合には、保護基が有ることで高温になるまで揮発しにくく、かつ、高温下では脱保護して塩基を発生し、イミド化率の増大に寄与すると考えられる。
 また、上記化合物Aが、水酸基を有する場合には、ポリイミド前駆体とエステル結合等による結合を形成するため、減圧工程においては揮発しにくく、加熱時には分解して塩基を発生してイミド化率の増大に寄与すると考えられる。
 更に、上記ウレア、ウレタン化合物がラジカル重合性基を有する場合、露光又は熱により重合するため減圧工程においては揮発しにくく、加熱時には分解して塩基を発生してイミド化率の増大に寄与すると考えられる。
 その結果、硬化物の耐熱信頼性向上、耐薬品性の向上という効果が得られると考えられる。
By carrying out a decompression step in the method for producing a cured product of the present invention, low molecular weight components such as residual solvent and decomposition products of the polymerization initiator in the film are volatilized, making it possible to produce a cured product with little outgassing in subsequent steps.
In addition, a thermal base generator is generally used to heat-cure the polyimide precursor. The thermal base generator is decomposed upon heating to generate a base, which is believed to act as a catalyst to promote the cyclization reaction (imidization) of the polyimide precursor.
When the amount of outgassing is reduced by reducing the pressure as described above, if a typical thermal base generator is used, the base generator or a part of the base generated by decomposition of the base generator is also vaporized by reducing the pressure, which may result in an insufficient imidization rate.
Therefore, the present inventors have found that the above-mentioned compound A can be used as a thermal base generator that is unlikely to volatilize even under reduced pressure (and further under reduced pressure and heating). Compound A has good affinity for a film containing a polyimide precursor and therefore is unlikely to volatilize under reduced pressure, and can simultaneously achieve the effects of suppressing the generation of outgassing and improving the imidization rate.
In particular, when the compound A has a structure in which a basic group (particularly, an amino group) is protected by a protecting group (t-BOC, Fmoc, etc., particularly t-BOC), the presence of the protecting group makes the compound less likely to volatilize until a high temperature is reached, and at a high temperature, the compound is deprotected to generate a base, which is considered to contribute to an increase in the imidization rate.
Furthermore, when the compound A has a hydroxyl group, it forms a bond with the polyimide precursor through an ester bond or the like, and is therefore less likely to volatilize in a decompression step, and is decomposed upon heating to generate a base, which is thought to contribute to an increase in the imidization rate.
Furthermore, when the above urea or urethane compound has a radical polymerizable group, it is polymerized by exposure to light or heat and is therefore less likely to volatilize in a reduced pressure step, but is decomposed upon heating to generate a base, which is thought to contribute to an increase in the imidization rate.
As a result, it is believed that the effect of improving the heat resistance reliability and chemical resistance of the cured product can be obtained.
 ここで、特許文献1には、減圧工程を含み、かつ、上述の条件1及び条件2を満たす硬化物の製造方法については記載されていない。 Patent Document 1 does not describe a method for producing a cured product that includes a decompression step and satisfies the above-mentioned conditions 1 and 2.

The lower limit of the pressure is not particularly limited, and may be 0 MPa or more. In other words, it may be a vacuum.

 光ラジカル重合開始剤としては、2官能あるいは3官能以上の光ラジカル重合開始剤を用いてもよい。そのような光ラジカル重合開始剤を用いることにより、光ラジカル重合開始剤の1分子から2つ以上のラジカルが発生するため、良好な感度が得られる。また、非対称構造の化合物を用いた場合においては、結晶性が低下して溶剤などへの溶解性が向上して、経時で析出しにくくなり、樹脂組成物の経時安定性を向上させることができる。2官能あるいは3官能以上の光ラジカル重合開始剤の具体例としては、特表2010-527339号公報、特表2011-524436号公報、国際公開第2015/004565号、特表2016-532675号公報の段落番号0407~0412、国際公開第2017/033680号の段落番号0039~0055に記載されているオキシム化合物の2量体、特表2013-522445号公報に記載されている化合物(E)および化合物(G)、国際公開第2016/034963号に記載されているCmpd1~7、特表2017-523465号公報の段落番号0007に記載されているオキシムエステル類光開始剤、特開2017-167399号公報の段落番号0020~0033に記載されている光開始剤、特開2017-151342号公報の段落番号0017~0026に記載されている光重合開始剤(A)、特許第6469669号公報に記載されているオキシムエステル光開始剤などが挙げられ、この内容は本明細書に組み込まれる。 As the photoradical polymerization initiator, a bifunctional or trifunctional or higher functional photoradical polymerization initiator may be used. By using such a photoradical polymerization initiator, two or more radicals are generated from one molecule of the photoradical polymerization initiator, resulting in good sensitivity. Furthermore, when a compound with an asymmetric structure is used, crystallinity decreases and solubility in solvents improves, making it less likely to precipitate over time, and improving the stability of the resin composition over time. Specific examples of bifunctional or trifunctional or higher functional photoradical polymerization initiators include dimers of oxime compounds described in JP-T-2010-527339, JP-T-2011-524436, WO-2015/004565, WO-2016-532675, paragraphs 0407 to 0412, and WO-2017/033680, paragraphs 0039 to 0055; compound (E) and compound (G) described in WO-T-2013-522445; Examples of such initiators include Cmpd1 to 7 described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 4963, the oxime ester photoinitiators described in paragraph 0007 of JP-T-2017-523465, the photoinitiators described in paragraphs 0020 to 0033 of JP-A-2017-167399, the photopolymerization initiator (A) described in paragraphs 0017 to 0026 of JP-A-2017-151342, and the oxime ester photoinitiators described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 6469669, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

 まず、樹脂組成物に含まれる濃度と同濃度の化合物aの溶液を調製し、露光光の波長における化合物aのモル吸光係数(mol-1・L・cm-1、「モル吸光係数1」ともいう。)を測定する。上記測定は、化合物aのモル吸光係数の低下などの変化の影響が小さくなるよう手早く行う。上記溶液における溶剤は、樹脂組成物が溶剤を含む場合はその溶剤を、樹脂組成物が溶剤を含まない場合はN-メチル-2-ピロリドンを用いる。
 次に、上記化合物aの溶液に対して露光光の照射を行う。露光量は1モルの化合物aに対して積算量として500mJとする。
 その後、露光後の上記化合物aの溶液を用い、露光光の波長における化合物aのモル吸光係数(mol-1・L・cm-1、「モル吸光係数2」ともいう。)を測定する。
 上記モル吸光係数1及びモル吸光係数2から、下記式に基づいて減衰率(%)を算出し、減衰率(%)が5%以上である場合に、化合物aは露光によりその露光波長の吸光度が小さくなる化合物(すなわち、光吸収剤)であると判断する。

 上記減衰率は、10%以上であることが好ましく、20%以上であることがより好ましい。また、上記減衰率の下限は特に限定されず、0%以上であればよい。

Whether or not a certain compound a contained in a resin composition corresponds to a light absorbent (that is, whether or not its absorbance at the exposure wavelength decreases upon exposure) can be determined by the following method.
First, a solution of compound a is prepared at the same concentration as that contained in the resin composition, and the molar absorption coefficient of compound a at the wavelength of the exposure light (mol -1 ·L·cm -1 , also called "molar absorption coefficient 1") is measured. The measurement is carried out quickly so as to reduce the influence of changes such as a decrease in the molar absorption coefficient of compound a. As the solvent for the solution, when the resin composition contains a solvent, that solvent is used, and when the resin composition does not contain a solvent, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone is used.
Next, the solution of compound a is irradiated with exposure light, with the cumulative exposure dose being 500 mJ per mole of compound a.
Thereafter, the molar absorption coefficient (mol −1 ·L·cm −1 , also referred to as “molar absorption coefficient 2”) of compound a at the wavelength of the exposure light is measured using the solution of compound a after exposure.
From the above molar absorption coefficient 1 and molar absorption coefficient 2, the attenuation rate (%) is calculated based on the following formula. When the attenuation rate (%) is 5% or more, compound a is determined to be a compound whose absorbance at the exposure wavelength decreases upon exposure (i.e., a light absorber).
Extinction rate (%) = 1 - molar extinction coefficient 2 / molar extinction coefficient 1 x 100
The attenuation rate is preferably 10% or more, and more preferably 20% or more. There is no particular lower limit to the attenuation rate, so long as it is 0% or more.
When the resin composition is used to form a photosensitive film, the wavelength of the exposure light may be any wavelength that exposes the photosensitive film.
The wavelength of the exposure light is preferably a wavelength to which the photopolymerization initiator contained in the resin composition has sensitivity. The photopolymerization initiator has sensitivity to a certain wavelength, meaning that the photopolymerization initiator generates a polymerization initiating species when exposed to light of a certain wavelength.
The wavelength of the exposure light, in terms of its light source, may include (1) semiconductor laser (wavelengths 830 nm, 532 nm, 488 nm, 405 nm, 375 nm, 355 nm, etc.), (2) metal halide lamp, (3) high-pressure mercury lamp, g-line (wavelength 436 nm), h-line (wavelength 405 nm), i-line (wavelength 365 nm), broad (three wavelengths of g, h, and i-lines), (4) excimer laser, KrF excimer laser (wavelength 248 nm), ArF excimer laser (wavelength 193 nm), F2 excimer laser (wavelength 157 nm), (5) extreme ultraviolet light; EUV (wavelength 13.6 nm), (6) electron beam, and (7) second harmonic 532 nm and third harmonic 355 nm of YAG laser.

 その後、露光光の照射を行う。露光量は積算量として500mJとする。
 露光後に、例えば高速液体クロマトグラフィにより重合性化合物の重合を判断し、重合性化合物の全モル量に対して重合した重合性化合物のモル量の割合が10%以下である場合に、光吸収剤が露光によりラジカル重合開始種を発生しない化合物であると判定する。
 上記モル量の割合は5%以下であることが好ましく、3%以下であることがより好ましい。また、上記モル量の割合の下限は特に限定されず、0%であってもよい。
 上記露光光の波長としては、樹脂組成物を感光膜の形成に用いる場合にはその感光膜が露光される波長であればよい。
 また、上記露光光の波長としては、樹脂組成物に含まれる光重合開始剤が感度を有する波長であることが好ましい。
The light absorbent may be a compound that generates radical polymerization initiating species upon exposure to light. However, from the viewpoints of resolution and chemical resistance, it is preferable that the light absorbent is a compound that does not generate radical polymerization initiating species upon exposure to light.
Whether or not a light absorbent is a compound that generates a radical polymerization initiating species upon exposure to light can be judged by the following method.
A solution containing a light absorber and a radical crosslinker at the same concentration as those contained in the resin composition is prepared. When the resin composition contains a radical crosslinker, the radical crosslinker in the solution is the same compound as the radical crosslinker contained in the resin composition and at the same concentration. When the resin composition does not contain a radical crosslinker, methyl methacrylate is used at a concentration five times that of the light absorber.
Thereafter, exposure light is irradiated to an integrated amount of 500 mJ.
After exposure, polymerization of the polymerizable compound is determined, for example, by high performance liquid chromatography, and if the ratio of the molar amount of the polymerized polymerizable compound to the total molar amount of the polymerizable compounds is 10% or less, the light absorber is determined to be a compound that does not generate radical polymerization initiating species upon exposure.
The molar ratio is preferably 5% or less, more preferably 3% or less. The lower limit of the molar ratio is not particularly limited, and may be 0%.
When the resin composition is used to form a photosensitive film, the wavelength of the exposure light may be any wavelength that exposes the photosensitive film.
The wavelength of the exposure light is preferably a wavelength to which the photopolymerization initiator contained in the resin composition has sensitivity.
