Abstract

A photosensitive film of the present invention includes a carrier film having a first surface whose surface roughness is 0.1 to 0.4 μm, and a photosensitive layer formed on the first surface, in which a haze of the carrier film is 30 to 65%, and a spectral haze at a wavelength of 405 nm of the carrier film, as measured by providing a transparent resin layer in which a difference between a refractive index of the transparent resin layer and a refractive index of the photosensitive layer is within ±0.02 on the first surface, is 0.1 to 9.0%.

Claims (20)

1. A photosensitive film comprising:

a carrier film having a first surface whose surface roughness is 0.1 to 0.4 μm; and

a photosensitive layer formed on the first surface, wherein

a haze of the carrier film is 30 to 65%, and a spectral haze at a wavelength of 405 nm of the carrier film, as measured by providing a transparent resin layer in which a difference between a refractive index of the transparent resin layer and a refractive index of the photosensitive layer is within ±0.02 on the first surface, is 0.1 to 9.0%, and

the carrier film includes a base material layer, and a resin layer containing inorganic particles and a binder resin at a side of the first surface.

2. The photosensitive film according to claim 1 , wherein the resin layer contains inorganic particles having an average particle diameter of 0.1 to 3.0 μm.

3. The photosensitive film according to claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the resin layer is 0.5 to 8 μm.

4. A method for forming a permanent mask resist, the method comprising:

a step of stacking the photosensitive film according to claim 1 on a substrate in order of the photosensitive layer and the carrier film;

a step of irradiating a predetermined portion of the photosensitive layer with active light rays via the carrier film to form a photocured part in the photosensitive layer; and

a step of peeling off the carrier film and then removing a portion other than the photocured part to form a resist pattern, wherein

a surface roughness of the resist pattern is 0.1 to 0.4 μm, and

the carrier film includes a base material layer, and a resin layer containing inorganic particles and a binder resin at a side of the first surface.

5. The photosensitive film according to claim 2 , wherein a thickness of the resin layer is 0.5 to 8 μm.

6. The method for forming a permanent mask resist according to claim 4 ,

wherein the resin layer contains inorganic particles having an average particle diameter of 0.1 to 3.0 μm.

7. The method for forming a permanent mask resist according to claim 4 ,

wherein a thickness of the resin layer is 0.5 to 8 μm.

8. The method for forming a permanent mask resist according to claim 6 ,

wherein a thickness of the resin layer is 0.5 to 8 μm.
