Each step will be described below in order.

In the application step (1), it is preferable to apply (preferably apply) the photosensitive resin composition of the present invention onto a substrate to form a wet film containing a solvent. Before applying the photosensitive resin resin composition to the substrate, it is preferable to perform substrate cleaning such as alkali cleaning or plasma cleaning, and it is more preferable to treat the substrate surface with hexamethyldisilazane after substrate cleaning.

The wet film thickness when applied is not particularly limited, and can be applied with a film thickness according to the application, but is usually used in the range of 0.5 to 10 μm.
Furthermore, before applying the composition used in the present invention to the substrate, it is possible to apply a so-called pre-wet method as described in JP-A-2009-145395.

(2) In the solvent removal step (2), the solvent is removed from the applied film by vacuum (vacuum) and / or heating to form a dry coating film on the substrate. The heating conditions for the solvent removal step are preferably 70 to 130 ° C. and about 30 to 300 seconds. When the temperature and time are in the above ranges, the pattern adhesiveness is better and the residue tends to be further reduced.

In the exposure step (3), the substrate provided with the coating film is irradiated with an actinic ray having a predetermined pattern. In this step, the photoacid generator is decomposed to generate an acid. By the catalytic action of the generated acid, the acid-decomposable group contained in the coating film component is hydrolyzed to generate a carboxyl group or a phenolic hydroxyl group.

A cured film can be formed. This heating is performed using a heating device such as a hot plate or an oven at a predetermined temperature, for example, 180 to 250 ° C. for a predetermined time, for example, 5 to 90 minutes on the hot plate, 30 to 120 minutes for the oven.

These heating methods can use well-known heating methods, such as a hotplate, oven, and an infrared heater.
Prior to post-baking, the entire surface of the patterned substrate was re-exposed with actinic rays (post-exposure), and then post-baked to generate an acid from the photoacid generator present in the unexposed portion, thereby performing a crosslinking step.

An organic EL display device using TFT was produced by the following method (see FIG. 2).
A bottom gate type TFT 1 was formed on a glass substrate 6, and an insulating film 3 made of Si ₃ N ₄ was formed so as to cover the TFT 1. Next, a contact hole (not shown) is formed in the insulating film 3, and then a wiring 2 (height 1.0 μm) connected to the TFT 1 through the contact hole is formed on the insulating film 3. . The wiring 2 is used to connect the TFT 1 to the organic EL element formed between the TFTs 1 or in a later process.

Further, in order to flatten the unevenness due to the formation of the wiring 2, the planarizing film 4 was formed on the insulating film 3 in a state where the unevenness due to the wiring 2 was embedded. The planarizing film 4 is formed on the insulating film 3 by spin-coating the photosensitive resin composition of Example 1 on a substrate, pre-baking (90 ° C./120 seconds) on a hot plate, and then applying high pressure from above the mask. After irradiating 80 mJ / cm 2 (energy intensity 20 mW / cm ² ) with i-line (365 nm) using a mercury lamp, a pattern is formed by developing with an alkaline aqueous solution (2.38% TMAH aqueous solution). Using this, the entire surface was exposed so that the integrated irradiation amount was 300 mJ / cm ² (energy intensity: 20 mW / cm ² , i-line), and heat treatment was performed at 230 ° C./30 minutes.
The applicability when applying the photosensitive resin composition was good, and no wrinkles or cracks were observed in the cured film obtained after exposure, development and baking. Furthermore, the average step of the wiring 2 was 500 nm, and the thickness of the prepared planarizing film 4 was 2,000 nm.

Next, a bottom emission type organic EL element was formed on the obtained flattening film 4. First, a first electrode 5 made of ITO was formed on the planarizing film 4 so as to be connected to the wiring 2 through the contact hole 7. Thereafter, a resist was applied, prebaked, exposed through a mask having a desired pattern, and developed. Using this resist pattern as a mask, pattern processing was performed by wet etching using an ITO etchant. Thereafter, the resist pattern was stripped at 50 ° C. using a resist stripper (remover 100, manufactured by AZ Electronic Materials). The first electrode 5 thus obtained corresponds to the anode of the organic EL element.

Next, an insulating film 8 having a shape covering the periphery of the first electrode 5 was formed. As the insulating film 8, the photosensitive resin composition of Example 1 was used, and the insulating film 8 was formed by the same method as described above. By providing this insulating film 8, it is possible to prevent a short circuit between the first electrode 5 and the second electrode formed in the subsequent process.

Further, a hole transport layer, an organic light emitting layer, and an electron transport layer were sequentially deposited through a desired pattern mask in a vacuum deposition apparatus. Next, a second electrode made of Al was formed on the entire surface above the substrate. The obtained board | substrate was taken out from the vapor deposition machine, and it sealed by bonding together using the glass plate for sealing, and an ultraviolet curable epoxy resin.

As described above, an active matrix type organic EL display device in which each organic EL element is connected to the TFT 1 for driving it was obtained. When a voltage was applied via the drive circuit, it was found that the organic EL display device showed good display characteristics and high reliability.
