Abstract

The present invention relates to a light absorbent for organic anti-reflection coating formation, and an organic anti-reflection film composition containing the same. The light absorbent for organic anti-reflection film formation according to the present invention is a compound of the following formula (1a), a compound of the following formula (1b), a mixture of compounds of the formulas (1a) and (1b): wherein X is selected from the group consisting of a substituted or unsubstituted cyclic group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, aryl, diaryl ether, diaryl sulfide, diaryl sulfoxide and diaryl ketone; and R 1 is a hydrogen atom, a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, or an aryl group having 1 to 14 carbon atoms.

Claims (10)

1. A light absorbent for organic anti-reflection coating formation, comprising a compound of the following formula (1a), a compound of the following formula (1b), or a mixture of compounds of formulas (1a) and (1b):

wherein in the formulas (1a) and (1b), X is selected from the group consisting of a substituted or unsubstituted cyclic group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, an aryl group, diaryl ether, diaryl sulfide, diaryl sulfoxide and diaryl ketone; and R 1 is a hydrogen atom, a substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, or an aryl group having 1 to 14 carbon atoms.

2. The light absorbent for organic anti-reflection coating formation according to claim 1 , wherein the compound of the formula (1a) and the compound of the formula (1b) were produced by performing a reaction in an basic environment.

3. The light absorbent for organic anti-reflection coating formation according to claim 2 , wherein the base is a compound selected from the group consisting of dimethylaminopyridine, pyridine, 1,4-diazabicyclo[2,2,2]octane, 1,5-diazabicyclo[4,3,0]nonane, triethylamine, 2,6-di-tert-butylpyridine, diisopropylethylamine, diazabicycloundecene and tetramethylethylenediamine.

4. An organic anti-reflection coating composition comprising the light absorbent according to claim 1 , a polymer, a thermal acid generating agent, a crosslinking agent and a solvent.

5. The organic anti-reflection coating composition according to claim 4 , wherein the composition includes 0.1 to 40% by weight of the light absorbent, 0.1 to 20% by weight of the polymer, 0.01 to 20% by weight of the thermal acid generating agent, and 0.01 to 15% by weight of the crosslinking agent.

6. The organic anti-reflection coating composition according to claim 4 , wherein the polymer is a resin having crosslinkable sites at the main chain ends and the side chain ends.

7. The organic anti-reflection coating composition according to claim 4 , wherein the crosslinking agent is an aminoplastic compound, a polyfunctional epoxy resin, diannhydride or a mixture thereof.

8. The organic anti-reflection coating composition according to claim 4 , wherein the thermal acid generating agent is selected from the group consisting of an amine salt of toluenesulfonic acid, a pyridine salt of toluenesulfonic acid, an amine salt of an alkylsulfonic acid, a pyridine salt of an alkylsulfonic acid and combinations thereof.

9. The organic anti-reflection coating composition according to claim 4 , wherein the solvent is one or more selected from the group consisting of propylene glycol monomethyl ether (PGME), propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate (PGMEA), cyclohexanone, ethyl lactate, propylene glycol n-propyl ether, dimethylformamide (DMF), γ-butyrolactone, ethoxyethanol, methoxyethanol, methyl 3-methoxypropionate (MMP) and ethyl 3-ethoxypropionate (EEP).
