Generally, vapor phase method (CVD method) and coating film method (SOG method) are used as a method for forming an interlayer insulating film or a planarizing film (in the present invention, both are referred to as an interlayer insulating film and the like hereinafter).
Is known in the past. That is, these interlayer insulating films and the like are formed by a method of depositing a dense SiO 2 film by a highly reliable vapor phase method, or by forming an inorganic polysiloxane coating film typified by tetrahydroxysilane by a coating method. The upper and lower surfaces of this coating film are made of dense SiO 2 by a vapor phase method.
Membrane-wrapped sandwich methods have been employed.

However, as semiconductors are highly integrated,
There is a method in which the wiring width and the groove between the patterns are narrowed, so that the unevenness on the surface of the element becomes large. With only the conventional vapor phase method, the unevenness may cause defects such as disconnection in the upper wiring.

On the other hand, even in the coating film method, the film thickness must be made thicker than before in order to fill the irregularities on the device surface, but the tetrahydroxysilane cured film which is an inorganic SOG film has a film thickness of 0.2 μm. In the above case, there is a drawback that cracks are likely to occur, and there is a problem in using it for an interlayer insulating film of thick wiring.

Therefore, as an improvement of the thickening, crack resistance and flattening ability of the tetrahydroxysilane coating used in the coating film method in recent years, so-called organic SOG such as alkyltrihydroxysilane is used as an interlayer insulating film or the like.

Furthermore, the organic SOG film is an inorganic SOG film.
Higher hygroscopicity compared to the film is also anxious about the reliability of the wiring.

In the polyorganosilsesquioxane of the present invention, when the hydroxyl group of the terminal group is 6% by weight or more, there is a hydroxyl group which remains unreacted after curing, which results in high hygroscopicity of the cured film. Cause If the amount of the alkoxy group as the terminal group is 16% by weight or more, there arises a disadvantage that the amount of gas generated when the cured film is heated at high temperature increases. In addition, when the hydroxyl group of the terminal group is 0.3% by weight or less or the alkoxy group is 0.9% by weight or less, the adhesion to the substrate and the flattening property are unsatisfactory, and the hardness of the cured film is sufficient for the purpose. Not reach a certain level. Further, the molar ratio of the hydroxyl group of the terminal group to the alkoxy group is 1: 0.2 to 2.0, preferably 1: 0.5 to 1.5, and even if the alkoxy group is more or less than this range, it is cured. Time performance does not progress smoothly. When the amount of alkoxy groups is small, the hygroscopicity of the cured film becomes unsatisfactory, and when the amount of alkoxy groups is large, the amount of gas generated during high temperature heating becomes a problem.
