Abstract:
Embodiments in accordance with the present invention encompass self-imagable polymer compositions containing a variety of photobase generators which are useful for forming films that can be patterned to create structures for microelectronic devices, microelectronic packaging, microelectromechanical systems, optoelectronic devices and displays. The compositions of this invention can be tailored to form positive tone or negative tone images depending upon the intended application in aqueous developable medium. The images formed therefrom exhibit improved properties including low wafer stress and better thermo-mechanical properties, among other property enhancements.

Claim (Index 16):
A photoimagable composition comprising:\n a) a copolymer containing repeating units derived from styrene and ring opened maleic anhydride repeat units which is ring opened with n-butylamine; b) a photobase generator selected from the group consisting of:\n a compound of formula (IV): \n a compound of formula (V): a compound of formula (VI): a compound of formula (VIIA): a compound of formula (VIIB): \u2003and\n a compound of formula (VIIC): \n wherein R 13  and R 14  each independently of each other selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, linear or branched (C 1 -C 5 )alkyl and (C 6 -C 10 )aryl; or R 13  and R 14  taken together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached form a 5 to 7 membered monocyclic ring or 6 to 12 membered bicyclic ring, said rings optionally containing one or more heteroatoms selected from O and N, and said rings optionally substituted with a group selected from the group consisting of linear or branched (C 1 -C 8 )alkyl, (C 6 -C 10 )aryl, halogen, hydroxy, linear or branched (C 1 -C 8 )alkoxy and (C 6 -C 10 )aryloxy; and R 15 , R 16  and R 17  are the same or different and each independently of one another selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, linear or branched (C 1 -C 16 )alkyl, (C 6 -C 10 )aryl, (C 6 -C 10 )aryl(C 1 -C 3 )alkyl, hydroxy, halogen, linear or branched (C 1 -C 12 )alkoxy and (C 6 -C 10 )aryloxy; and c) a carrier solvent.
