Further, this invention also relates to methods for producing a cured film and an electronic device using the same. BACKGROUND ART [0002] There is a continuing desire in the electronics industry to increase the circuit density in electronic components without degrading electrical performance because of the recent progress of high integration, multifunction and high performance in semiconductor integrated circuits. It is desirable to increase the speed of signal propagation in these components. One method of accomplishing these goals is to reduce the parasitic capacitance of the components by using reduced dielectric constant insulating material in the interlayer or intermetal layer of the components. A method for reducing the dielectric constant of such interlayer dielectrics or intermetal dielectrics is to incorporate very small uniformly dispersed pores within the insulating film. [0003] In addition, the reduced dielectric constant dielectrics is required to have thermal stabilities, resistance to crack generation and propagation, low water uptake, chemical resistance, capacity for planarization, processability by photolithographic techniques and gas phase etching procedure, adhesion to a substrate, and mechanical properties high enough to withstand chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process. [0004] Porous dielectric materials are well-known in the art. One known process of making a porous dielectric involves copolymerization of a thermally liable monomer and a dielectric monomer to form a block copolymer, followed by heating to decompose the thermally liable monomer unit. US 2007/0100109 A1 disclosed a polymer composition comprised a plurality of monomers wherein at least one monomer comprised a radical precursor chemically bonded to a structural precursor. The suitable structural precursor was an organohydridosiloxane and the preferable radical precursors were alkyl groups. [0005] US 7,205,030 B2 disclosed a film-forming composition containing a polysiloxane, a pore-forming agent, an onium salt, and a solvent for forming a porous film. The pore-forming agent was vaporized by heat-treatment. [0006] EP 1 354 980 B1 disclosed a low dielectric constant layers produced by a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. A composition suitable for the production of a porous organosilica film was comprising at least one alkoxysilane and at least one cyclic hydrocarbon as a porogen. A film derived from the composition by CVD method was heat-treated at ambient to 500°C to remove the porogen. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0007] One embodiment of the present invention provides a low dielectric constant siliceous film manufacturing composition that can fill a narrow and a high aspect ratio trench and can produce a film with excellent planarity. [0008] Another embodiment of the present invention provides a method of manufacturing a low dielectric constant siliceous film with dispersed pores having mechanical properties high enough to withstand CMP process and stable electrical properties due to low water uptake.

[0012] The condensation catalyst generator (II) is a thermal base generator capable of generating a base by heat-treatment and/or a photobase generator capable of generating a base by photo-irradiation. [0013] The pore-generating material (III) is a substituted or an unsubstituted polycyclic hydrocarbon. [0014] The solvent (IV) has an ability to dissolve the components described above. [0015] Another embodiment of the present invention provides a method of manufacturing a low dielectric constant siliceous film with dispersed pores that includes applying the above-described low dielectric constant siliceous film manufacturing composition on a substrate to form a coating; curing the coating under a nitrogen atmosphere. [0016] Yet another embodiment of the present invention provides a method of manufacturing an electronic device having a low dielectric constant siliceous film with dispersed pores manufactured by a method comprising: applying the above-described low dielectric constant siliceous film manufacturing composition on a substrate to form a coating; curing the coating at 250°C or less. [0017] The low dielectric constant siliceous film manufacturing composition of the present invention is able to fill a narrow and a high aspect ratio trench and to form a coating with planarity. Further, the resultant low dielectric constant siliceous film with dispersed pores also has mechanical properties high enough to withstand CMP process and its electrical properties is stable due to low water uptake.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [0028] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. [0029] [Low dielectric constant siliceous film manufacturing composition] The low dielectric constant siliceous film manufacturing composition according to the present invention comprises: (I) a polysiloxane, (II) a pore-generating material, (III) a condensation catalyst generator, and (IV) a solvent. These components are respectively described below. [0030] [(I) polysiloxane] The polysiloxane refers to a polymer having a main chain of Si-O-Si bond (siloxane bond). In the present specification, the polysiloxane shall also include a silsesquioxane polymer represented by the general formula (RSiO 1.5 )n. [0031] The polysiloxane according to the present invention comprises two types of repeating units represented by specific formulas. The first repeating unit is represented by the following formula (Ia): In the above formula, R 1 is hydrogen, a monovalent to trivalent, linear, branched or cyclic, saturated or unsaturated C 1-30 aliphatic hydrocarbon group, or a monovalent to trivalent C 6-30 aromatic hydrocarbon group. In the aliphatic hydrocarbon group and the aromatic hydrocarbon group, one or more methylene is unsubstituted or substituted with oxy, imide or carbonyl, one or more hydrogens are unsubstituted or substituted with fluorine, hydroxy or alkoxy, or one or more carbons are unsubstituted or substituted with silicon. When R 1 is divalent or trivalent, R 1 connects to other Si atoms contained in a plurality of repeating units. [0032] When R 1 is a monovalent group, R 1 is preferably hydrogen, linear, branched or cyclic C 1-6 alkyl or C 6-10 aryl. Examples thereof include: (i) hydrogen; (ii) alkyl, such as, methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, pentyl, hexyl, heptyl, octyl, or decyl; (iii) cycloalkyl, such as, cyclohexyl; (iv) aryl, such as, phenyl, tolyl, or benzyl; (v) fluoroalkyl, such as, trifluoromethyl, 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl, or 3,3,3-trifluoropropyl; (vi) fluoroaryl; and (vii) nitrogen-containing group having an amino or imido structure, such as, glycidyl, isocyanate or amino. Preferred are (ii) alkyl and (iv) aryl, and particularly preferred are methyl and phenyl. [0033] When R 1 is a divalent or trivalent group, R 1 preferably contains alkylene, arylene, cycloalkylene ring, piperidine ring, pyrrolidine ring, isocyanurate ring and the like. [0034] The second repeating unit is represented by the following formula (Ib): . [0035] Specifically, the polysiloxane preferably comprises repeating units selected from the group consisting of (i-1), (i-2) and (i-3) in combination:

provided that the mixing molar ratios p1, p2 and p3 of (i-1), (i-2) and (i-3), respectively, satisfy the conditions of: 0.4£ p1/(p1+p2+p3) £0.8, 0£ p2/(p1+p2+p3) £0.4, and 0.2£ p3/(p1+p2+p3) £0.6. If this polysiloxane is employed, it is possible to obtain a low dielectric constant siliceous film remarkably improved in mechanical properties high enough to withstand CMP process. The smaller the molar ratio P2 is, the more the mechanical properties tends to be improved. Accordingly, in view of mechanical properties, the molar ratio P2 is preferably equal to 0 (i.e., p2=0). [0036] The polysiloxane according to the present invention can further comprise the repeating unit represented by the following formula (Ic): wherein R 2 and R 3 are independently hydrogen, linear, branched or cyclic C 1-6 aliphatic hydrocarbon group or C 6-10 aromatic hydrocarbon group. In view of mechanical properties of a derived low dielectric constant siliceous film, the molar ratio of the repeating unit (Ic) is preferably 15 mol% or less based on the total amount of the repeating units. [0037] The polysiloxane according to the present invention can still further comprise a terminal unit represented by the following formula (Id): wherein R 4 to R 6 are independently hydrogen, linear, branched or cyclic C 1-6 aliphatic hydrocarbon group or C 6-10 aromatic hydrocarbon group. In view of mass average molecular weight of the polysiloxane, the molar ratio of the terminal unit (Id) is preferably 2 mol% or less based on the total amount of the repeating units. [0038] A polysiloxane molecule can have a hydroxyl and/or alkoxyl at the terminal or in the side chain according to a synthesis condition but a hydroxyl is preferable for the present invention. The polysiloxane adopted in the present invention is characterized not only by the types of repeating units constituting the molecule thereof but also by the amount of silanol groups (SiOH) contained therein. The amount of silanol groups depends on synthesis conditions of polysiloxane, such as, mixing ratios of monomers and kinds of reaction catalysts. The silanol content can be quantitively determined by FT-IR. In the FT-IR spectrum, the absorption band assigned to silanol (SiOH) has a peak in the range of 900 ±100 cm -1 . Accordingly, if a large amount of silanol groups are contained, that absorption band has high intensity. [0039] In the present invention, the intensity of the absorption band assigned to Si-O is used as a reference for quantitively evaluating the silanol content. Specifically, the absorption band having a peak in the range of 1100 ±100 cm -1 is adopted as the peak assigned to Si-O. The area intensities S1 and S2 of the absorption bands assigned to Si-O and SiOH, respectively, are measured to calculate the S2/S1 ratio, and thereby the silanol content is relatively evaluated. In consideration of storage stability of the low dielectric constant siliceous film manufacturing composition, the S2/S1 ratio is preferably a small value. The S2/S1 ratio is 0.05 to 0.15, preferably 0.06 to 0.13 in the present invention. [0040] Such a polysiloxane can be obtained through hydrolysis and condensation, optionally in the presence of an acidic catalyst or a basic catalyst, of silane compounds represented by the following formulas (ia) and (ib), and optionally (ic) and (id): wherein p is an integer of 1 to 3, R 1’ is hydrogen, a monovalent to trivalent, linear, branched or cyclic, saturated or unsaturated C 1-30 aliphatic hydrocarbon group, or a monovalent to trivalent, C 6-30 aromatic hydrocarbon group, in said aliphatic hydrocarbon group and said aromatic hydrocarbon group, one or more methylene is unsubstituted or substituted with oxy, imide or carbonyl, one or more hydrogens are unsubstituted or substituted with fluorine, hydroxy or alkoxy, or one or more carbons are unsubstituted or substituted with silicon, and R 2’ to R 6’ are independently hydrogen, linear, branched or cyclic C 1-6 aliphatic hydrocarbon group or C 6-10 aromatic hydrocarbon group. R 7 to R 10 are independently C 1-10 alkyl. [0041] Each of the silane compounds (ia), (ib), (ic) and (id) can be used in combination of two or more kinds. [0042] In the process for producing the polysiloxane, the blending ratio of the silane compound (ib) to the total molar amount of the silane compounds can be changed to control the mixing ratio of the repeating units in the polysiloxane and to control the above S2/S1 ratio. In view of mechanical properties, the polysiloxane in the present invention contains the repeating unit (Ib) in a mixing ratio of preferably 10 mol% or more based on the total amount of the repeating units. However, in order to avoid precipitation of the silane compounds, the mixing ratio of the repeating unit (Ib) is preferably 80 mol% or less, more preferably 75 mol% or less. [0043] The mass average molecular weight of the polysiloxane is usually 1,000 to 12,000, and preferably 1,000 to 10,000 from the viewpoint of solubility in an organic solvent. The mass average molecular weight in terms of polystyrene can be measured by gel permeation chromatography. [0044] [(II) pore-generating material] The pore-generating material is thermally degradable or sublimable which, upon heating to the material’s decomposition or sublimation temperature, decomposes or sublimes quantitatively into non-reactive species that can readily diffuse through the polysiloxane matrix. The temperature at which decomposition or sublimation occurs should be sufficiently high to permit standard film preparation and solvent removal. Pore-generating materials thus have a decomposition or sublimation temperature that is at least 120°C, preferably 150°C. [0045] Suitable pore-generating materials are generally sublimable compounds, including substituted or unsubstituted polycyclic hydrocarbons. The polycyclic hydrocarbons are compounds having two or more condensed hydrocarbon rings. Examples of polycyclic hydrocarbons include aliphatic polycyclic hydrocarbons, which are aliphatic bicyclic compounds, aliphatic tricyclic compounds and aliphatic hexacyclic compounds, and aromatic polycyclic hydrocarbons.

[0047] Examples of the aliphatic tricyclic compounds include adamantane derivatives represented by formula (IIa). In the formula, R 11 to R 13 in each independently represent a hydrogen atom, hydroxyl, C 1-6 alkyl, carboxyl, acetoxyl, acryloyloxyl, (meth)acryloyloxyl, or acetamido.

[0073] <Methods for producing a cured film> The method for producing a low dielectric constant siliceous film according to the present invention comprises coating the composition according to the present invention on a substrate to form a coating film, optionally photo-irradiation and heating the coating film. The method for forming a low dielectric constant siliceous film is described below in the order of steps. [0074] (1) Coating step The shape of the substrate is not particularly limited, and it can be freely selected according to the purpose. However, the composition according to the present invention is characterized by being easily penetrated even into narrow trenches and the like and capable of forming a film with excellent planarity, so that it can be applied to a substrate having trench portions and holes of a high aspect ratio. Specifically, it can be applied to a substrate having at least one trench having a width of the deepest portion of 0.2mm or less and an aspect ratio of 2 or more. Shape of the trench is not particularly limited, and the cross section thereof can be any of a rectangle, a forward tapered shape, a reverse tapered shape, a curved surface shape, and the like. Both end portions of the trench can be opened or closed. [0075] Typical examples of the substrate having at least one trench of a high aspect ratio include a substrate for an electronic device comprising a transistor element, a bit line, a capacitor, and the like. For the fabrication of such an electronic device, subsequent to a step of forming an insulating film between a transistor element called PMD and a bit line, between a transistor element and a capacitor, between a bit line and a capacitor or between a capacitor and a metal wiring, or an insulating film between a plurality of metal wirings called IMD, or a step of filling an isolation trench, a through hole plating step of forming a hole vertically penetrating the filling material of the fine trench is included in some cases. [0076] Coating can be performed by any method. Specifically, it can be freely selected from dip coating, roll coating, bar coating, brush coating, spray coating, doctor coating, flow coating, spin coating, slit coating, and the like. Moreover, as a substrate on which the composition is coated, suitable substrates, such as a silicon substrate, a glass substrate, a resin film, can be used. Various semiconductor devices and the like can be formed on these substrates, if necessary. If the substrate is a film, gravure coating is also available. A drying step can also be provided separately after coating a film if desired. Further, by repeating the coating step once or twice or more as needed, the film thickness of the coating film formed can be made as desired. [0077] (2) Pre-baking step After forming the coating film of the composition, it is preferable to carry out pre-baking (pre-heating treatment) of the coating film in order to dry the coating film and reduce the residual amount of the solvent. The pre-baking process can be generally carried out at a temperature of 70 to 180°C, preferably 100 to 150°C, in the case of a hot plate, for 10 to 300 seconds, preferably 30 to 180 seconds and in the case of a clean oven, for 1 to 30 minutes. [0078] (3) Photo-irradiation Photo-irradiation is conducted when PBG is used as a condensation catalyst generator. The photo-irradiation is carried out prior to curing step. It is possible to adopt any light source used in conventional semiconductor manufacturing processes for the photo-irradiation. Examples of the light source include high-pressure mercury lamp, low-pressure mercury lamp, metal halide lamp, xenon lamp, laser diode and LED. Light for the photo-irradiation is normally UV rays of g-line, h-line, i-line or the like. Energy of the light depends on the light source and the thickness of the coating film, but is generally 5 to 2000 mJ/cm 2 , preferably10 to 1000 mJ/cm 2 . [0079] (4) Curing step A low dielectric constant siliceous film with dispersed pores is formed by heating the coating film. In the present invention, the low dielectric constant siliceous film with dispersed pores means one in which the ratio of the number of oxygen atoms to the number of silicon atoms in the film is 1.2 or more. As the heating apparatus to be used in the curing step, the same one used in the above-mentioned pre-baking step can be used. The heating temperature in this curing process is not particularly limited as long as it is a temperature at which the low dielectric constant siliceous film with dispersed pores can be formed, and it can be freely determined. However, if a silanol group remains, chemical resistance of the low dielectric constant siliceous film with dispersed pores can become insufficient or the dielectric constant of the low dielectric constant siliceous film with dispersed pores can become high. From this viewpoint, for the heating temperature, relatively high temperature is generally selected. Specifically, heating is performed at preferably 250°C or lower, more preferably 220°C or lower, and particularly preferably 200°C or lower. On the other hand, in order to accelerate the curing reaction, the heating temperature is preferably 70°C or higher, more preferably 100°C or higher, and particularly preferably 110°C or higher. Further, the heating time is not particularly limited, and is generally determined to be 10 minutes to 24 hours, preferably 30 minutes to 3 hours. This heating time is the time after the temperature of the film reaches a desired heating temperature. Normally, it takes several minutes to several hours until the film reaches a desired temperature from the temperature before heating. The curing step is preferably performed under a nitrogen atmosphere. [0080] <Low dielectric constant siliceous film and electronic device comprising the same> The low dielectric constant siliceous film with dispersed pores according to the present invention can be produced by coating the composition according to the present invention on a substrate and curing. The low dielectric constant siliceous film with dispersed pores formed using the composition according to the present invention can achieve excellent planarity, chemical resistance, tolerance to CMP process, electrical properties, heat resistance and the like. Therefore, it can be suitably used in various fields as an interlayer insulating film for low temperature polysilicon, an intermetal dielectrics, a transparent protective film, and the like. [0081] The film thickness of the low dielectric constant siliceous film with dispersed pores is selected from the application but preferably 100 nm or more in view of tolerance to CMP process. [0082] Method for manufacturing an electronic device of the present invention comprises the above described method. Preferably the device is a semiconductor device, solar cell chip, organic light emitting diode and inorganic light emitting diode.

[0088] <Examples 1 to 12 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3 > The low dielectric constant siliceous film manufacturing compositions of Examples 1 to 12 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3 are prepared, which comprise polysiloxane, pore-generating material and condensation catalyst generator in the proportions shown in Table 1, with the balance being PGME. In the table, % means mass%. [0089] These low dielectric constant siliceous film manufacturing compositions are applied on a Si wafer by spin coating, and after application, it is prebaked at 120°C for 2 minutes on a hot plate. Thereafter, curing is performed by heating at 200°C for 2 hours in a clean oven under a nitrogen atmosphere. [0090] <Examples 13 and 14> The low dielectric constant siliceous film manufacturing compositions of Examples 13 and 14 are prepared, which comprise polysiloxane, pore-generating material and condensation catalyst generator in the proportions shown in Table 1, with the balance being PGME. These low dielectric constant siliceous film manufacturing compositions are applied on a Si wafer by spin coating, and after application, it is prebaked at 120°C for 2 minutes on a hot plate. The coated wafer was subjected to photo-irradiation at 500 mJ/cm 2 by i-line exposure machine NSR2205i11D (Nikon Corporation). Thereafter, curing is performed by heating at 200°C for 2 hours in a clean oven under a nitrogen atmosphere. [0091] With respect to the low dielectric constant siliceous film derived from each prepared composition, refractive index, electrical properties, hardness / modulus, film density, pore size and CMP processability were evaluated in the following manners. The results are shown in Table 2. [0092] [S2/S1 ratio] A siloxane solution was dropped onto a silicon wafer, which was successively spin-coated at a rotation speed of 1,000 rpm and then pre-baked on a hot-plate at 120°C for 60 seconds. FT-IR spectrum was measured at room temperature by FTIR-6100 (JASCO Corporation). In determining the area intensities of the absorption bands, noises and the like in the FT-IR spectrum are taken into account. In the FT-IR spectrum, an absorption band assigned to SiOH has a peak in the range of 900±100 cm -1 and one assigned to Si-O has a peak in the range of 1100 ±100 cm -1 . The area intensities of those absorption bands are measured as areas based on the baseline that is determined in consideration of noises and the like. The absorption bands assigned to SiOH and Si-O may be overlapped in their tail regions. In that case, the wavenumber at the local minimum point between the peaks is regarded as the boundary. If the band assigned to SiOH or Si-O is overlapped with other band tails, the boundary is determined in the same manner. The area intensities S1 and S2 of the absorption bands assigned to Si-O and SiOH, respectively, are measured by the spectrometer and the S2/S1 ratio was calculated from the measured area intensities.
