(Photosensitive transfer material)
The photosensitive transfer material according to the present disclosure has a temporary support and a photosensitive resin layer supported by the temporary support, and the temporary support has a particle-containing layer containing particles, The surface roughness Ra of the surface of the temporary support opposite to the surface having the photosensitive resin layer is 0.02 μm to 0.20 μm, and the photosensitive resin layer is protected with an acid-decomposable group.

Further, the photosensitive transfer material according to the present disclosure is a positive type photosensitive transfer material having a positive type photosensitive resin layer as described above.

 従来の感光性転写材料では、搬送時に掛かる応力により、シワが発生する場合があり、特にロールトゥロールにより搬送及び転写する場合にシワの発生が顕著に見られることを、本発明者らは見出した。
 また、酸分解性基で保護された酸基を有する構成単位を含有する重合体、及び、光酸発生剤を含有する、いわゆる化学増幅ポジ型感光性樹脂層は、露光して現像し、非露光部が残ることでパターンを形成するが、上記粒子に由来する露光時の光の拡散により、非露光部においても少量の酸が発生し、その酸が拡散されるため、露光後に時間が経過した後に現像した際に得られるパターンのサイズが変化してしまうという問題があることを、本発明者らは見出した。
 本開示において、露光後に時間が経過した後に現像しても、得られるパターンのサイズが変化しにくいという性質を、「露光後の経時安定性(PED:Post Exposure Delay stability))に優れる」ともいう。
 一方、特開2000-221688号公報等に記載されているネガ型感光性樹脂層の場合、露光部が硬化することによりパターンを形成するが、重合開始種の拡散距離は短く、かつ発生量も少ないため、露光後に時間が経過した後に現像した際に得られるパターンのサイズが変化してしまうという課題は発生しない。
 よって、露光後に時間が経過した後に現像した際に得られるパターンのサイズが変化してしまうという課題は、化学増幅ポジ型感光性樹脂層に特有の課題である。
The present inventors have found that in conventional photosensitive transfer materials, wrinkles may occur due to stress applied during transportation, and wrinkles are particularly noticeable when transported and transferred by roll-to-roll. It was
Further, a polymer containing a constitutional unit having an acid group protected by an acid-decomposable group, and a so-called chemically amplified positive photosensitive resin layer containing a photo-acid generator are exposed to light and developed, A pattern is formed by leaving the exposed part, but due to the diffusion of light at the time of exposure derived from the particles, a small amount of acid is generated even in the non-exposed part, and the acid is diffused, so that the time elapsed after the exposure. The present inventors have found that there is a problem in that the size of the pattern obtained when developed after that is changed.
In the present disclosure, the property that the size of the obtained pattern does not easily change even after development after a lapse of time after exposure is also referred to as “excellent in stability over time after exposure (PED: Post Exposure Delay stability)”. ..
On the other hand, in the case of the negative type photosensitive resin layer described in JP-A-2000-221688 and the like, a pattern is formed by curing the exposed portion, but the diffusion distance of the polymerization initiation species is short and the amount of generation is also small. Since the number is small, the problem that the size of the pattern obtained when developing is changed after a lapse of time after exposure does not occur.
Therefore, the problem that the size of the pattern obtained when developing is changed after a lapse of time after exposure is a problem peculiar to the chemically amplified positive photosensitive resin layer.
 本発明者らは鋭意検討を重ねた結果、上記構成の感光性転写材料とすることにより、搬送時のシワの発生の抑制(「搬送時のシワ発生抑制性」ともいう。)と、露光後の経時安定性とを両立した感光性転写材料が得られることを見出した。
 詳細な上記効果の発現機構は不明であるが、上記仮支持体が、粒子を含有する粒子含有層を有し、上記仮支持体の感光性樹脂層を有する側の面とは反対側の面の表面粗さRaが、0.02μm~0.20μmであることにより、仮支持体の表面及び内部の少なくとも一方に存在する上記粒子の形状の影響により形成された凹凸部分が、搬送時の仮支持体と搬送部材との接触面積を小さくし、搬送による不要な応力等が感光性転写材料に掛かることを抑制し、シワの発生が抑制され、搬送時のシワ発生抑制性に優れると推定される。
 また、酸分解性基で保護された酸基を有する構成単位を含有する重合体、及び、光酸発生剤を含有する感光性樹脂層を有する感光性転写材料において、上記仮支持体が、粒子を含有する粒子含有層を有し、上記仮支持体の感光性樹脂層を有する側の面とは反対側の面の表面粗さRaが、0.02μm~0.20μmであることにより、上記粒子に由来する露光時の光の拡散が抑制され、得られるパターンの直線性に優れるとともに、非露光部における酸の発生及び拡散を抑制し、露光後の経時安定性に優れると推定される。
As a result of intensive studies by the present inventors, the use of the photosensitive transfer material having the above-described configuration suppresses the generation of wrinkles during transportation (also referred to as “wrinkle generation inhibition during transportation”) and after exposure. It was found that a photosensitive transfer material having both stability with time can be obtained.
Although the detailed mechanism of manifestation of the effect is unknown, the temporary support has a particle-containing layer containing particles, and the surface opposite to the surface having the photosensitive resin layer of the temporary support. Has a surface roughness Ra of 0.02 μm to 0.20 μm, the uneven portion formed by the shape of the particles present on at least one of the surface and the inside of the temporary support has a temporary roughness during transportation. It is presumed that the contact area between the support and the transport member is reduced, unnecessary stress due to transport is suppressed from being applied to the photosensitive transfer material, wrinkles are suppressed, and wrinkle generation during transfer is excellent. It
Further, in the photosensitive transfer material having a polymer containing a structural unit having an acid group protected by an acid-decomposable group, and a photosensitive resin layer containing a photo-acid generator, the temporary support is particles. The surface roughness Ra of the surface of the temporary support opposite to the surface having the photosensitive resin layer is 0.02 μm to 0.20 μm. It is presumed that the diffusion of light derived from particles during exposure is suppressed, the linearity of the obtained pattern is excellent, the generation and diffusion of acid in the non-exposed portion is suppressed, and the temporal stability after exposure is excellent.
