If required, the colored curable resin composition of the present invention may contain an additive known in the art, such as a filler, other polymeric compound, an adhesion promoter, an antioxidant, a light stabilizer, or a chain transfer agent.
The colored curable resin composition of the present invention can be prepared by, for example, mixing a colorant (A), a resin (B), a polymerizable compound (C), and a polymerization initiator (D), and a solvent (E), a leveling agent (F), a polymerization initiation aid (D1), and other component used if required.
The colorant (A) may be prepared using the colored dispersion and the pigment dispersion. A desired colored curable resin composition can be prepared by mixing remaining components at predetermined concentrations in the colored dispersion or the pigment dispersion.
When the colored curable resin composition contains a dye, the dye may be dissolved in advance in a part of or whole of the solvent (E) to prepare a solution. The solution is preferably filtered by a filter having a pore size of about 0.01 to 1 μm.
The colored curable resin composition after mixing is preferably filtered by a filter having a pore size of about 0.01 to 10 μm.
Examples of the method for producing the colored pattern from the colored curable resin composition of the present invention include a photolithography method, an inkjet method, and a printing method. Among these methods, a photolithography method is preferable. The photolithography method is a method in which the colored curable resin composition is applied onto a substrate and then dried to form a coloring composition layer, and the coloring composition layer is then developed by exposing the coloring composition layer to light through a photomask. In the photolithography method, the photomask is not used during the exposure to light, and/or the coloring composition layer is not developed, whereby a colored coating film which is a hardened material of the coloring composition layer can be formed. The colored pattern and the colored coating film which have been formed thus are the optical filter of the present invention.
The film thickness of the optical filter to be prepared is not particularly limited, and can be appropriately adjusted depending on objects, applications and the like. For example, the film thickness of the optical filter is 0.1 to 30 μm, preferably 0.1 to 20 μm, and more preferably 0.5 to 6 μm.
Examples of the substrate to be used include glass substrates such as quartz glass, borosilicate glass, alumina silicate glass, and soda lime glass of which the surface is coated with silica; resin substrates such as polycarbonate, poly(methyl methacrylate), and polyethylene terephthalate; silicon; and substrates on which aluminum, silver, or a silver/copper/palladium alloy thin film or the like is formed. On these substrates, other optical filter layer, a resin layer, a transistor, a circuit and the like may be formed.
The formation of each color pixel using a photolithography method can be carried out using a known or conventional device or under known or conventional conditions. For example, the color pixel can be prepared in the following manner.
First, a colored curable resin composition is applied onto a substrate, and then dried by heat-drying (prebaking) and/or drying under reduced pressure to remove volatile components such as a solvent from the composition, thereby producing a smooth coloring composition layer.
Examples of the application method include a spin coat method, a slit coat method, and a slit-and-spin coat method.
The temperature to be employed when heat-drying is carried out is preferably 30 to 120° C., and more preferably 50 to 110° C. The time for the heating is preferably 10 seconds to 60 minutes, and more preferably 30 seconds to 30 minutes.
When drying under reduced pressure is carried out, the drying procedure is preferably carried out at a temperature range of 20 to 25° C. under a pressure of 50 to 150 Pa.
The film thickness of the coloring composition layer is not particularly limited, and may be selected appropriately depending on the desired film thickness of the optical filter.
Next, the coloring composition layer is exposed to light through a photomask for forming a desired colored pattern. The pattern on the photomask is not particularly limited, and a pattern suitable for the intended application is used.
A light source to be used for the exposure to light is preferably a light source capable of generating light having a wavelength of 250 to 450 nm. For example, light having a wavelength of shorter than 350 nm may be cut with a filter capable of cutting light having this wavelength region, or light having a wavelength of around 436 nm, around 408 nm, or around 365 nm may be extracted selectively with a band-pass filter capable of extracting light having those wavelength region. Specific examples thereof include a mercury lamp, a light-emitting diode, a metal halide lamp, and a halogen lamp.
A light-exposing device such as a mask aligner and a stepper is preferably used because the device is capable of emitting a parallel light beam uniformly over the whole area of the exposed surface or accurately aligning the photomask to the substrate which has the coloring composition layer formed thereon.
A colored pattern is formed on the substrate by bringing the exposed coloring composition layer into contact with a developing solution to develop the coloring composition layer. By developing, an unexposed area in the coloring composition layer is dissolved in the developing solution and therefore removed. The developing solution is preferably an aqueous solution of an alkaline compound such as potassium hydroxide, sodium hydrogen carbonate, sodium carbonate, or tetramethylammonium hydroxide. The concentration of the alkaline compound in the aqueous solution is preferably 0.01 to 10% by mass, and more preferably 0.03 to 5% by mass. The developing solution may further contain a surfactant.
The developing method may be any of a paddle method, a dipping method, a spray method and the like. Furthermore, during the developing process, the substrate may be inclined at any angle.
After the developing process, the resultant product is preferably washed with water.
Furthermore, the resultant colored pattern is preferably subjected to post-baking. The temperature for the post-baking is preferably 150 to 250° C., and more preferably 160 to 250° C. The time for the post-baking is preferably 1 to 120 minutes, and more preferably 5 to 60 minutes.
According to the colored curable resin composition of the present invention, an optical filter in which foreign matter is less likely occur can be prepared. The optical filter is useful as a film used for a display device (for example, a liquid crystal display device, an organic EL device, or an electronic paper or the like) and a solid-state image sensor.
