Abstract
Abstract Photopatternable silicone polyamic acid can be spun onto a substrate and thereafter used in combination with a photoresist as an antireflective coating or as a patterned silicone polyamide. The silicone polyamic acid can be used with an absorbing dye, or it can be tinted with an organic dye to provide color filters when applied on a transparent substrate.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
158 words
A method for patterning adherent silicone polyamic acid on the surface of at least a portion of a substrate, where the silicone polyamic acid is patterned by (1) spin coating a silicone polyamic acid onto the surface of the substrate, (2) drying the silicone polyamic acid at a temperature of at least 100° C., (3) spin coating a positive photoresist onto the surface of the silicone polyamic acid to produce a silicone polyamic acid-photoresist composite, (4) exposing the applied positive photoresist to patterned UV light, and (5) developing the resulting patterned silicone polyamic acid-photoresist composite, where the silicone polyamic acid is the intercondensation product of reaction of about 2% less than stoichiometric, to about stoichiometric, of aryldiamine and organic dianhydride, comprising a mixture of from about 20 to 80 mole percent of norbornane organosiloxane bisanhydride and from about 80 mole percent to about 20 mole percent of aromatic organic bisanhydride, based on the total moles of organic dianhydride.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
158 words
A method for patterning adherent silicone polyamic acid on the surface of at least a portion of a substrate, where the silicone polyamic acid is patterned by (1) spin coating a silicone polyamic acid onto the surface of the substrate, (2) drying the silicone polyamic acid at a temperature of at least 100° C., (3) spin coating a positive photoresist onto the surface of the silicone polyamic acid to produce a silicone polyamic acid-photoresist composite, (4) exposing the applied positive photoresist to patterned UV light, and (5) developing the resulting patterned silicone polyamic acid-photoresist composite, where the silicone polyamic acid is the intercondensation product of reaction of about 2% less than stoichiometric, to about stoichiometric, of aryldiamine and organic dianhydride, comprising a mixture of from about 20 to 80 mole percent of norbornane organosiloxane bisanhydride and from about 80 mole percent to about 20 mole percent of aromatic organic bisanhydride, based on the total moles of organic dianhydride.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
122 words
A method which comprises (1) spin coating onto a substrate a silicone polyamic acid having an effective amount of an organic dye with maximum absorption in the range of 200 to 450 nm, (2) drying the silicone polyamic acid at a temperature of at least 100° C., (3) spin coating a positive photoresist onto the surface of the silicone polyamic acid to produce a silicone polyamic acid-photoresist composite, (4) exposing the applied positive photoresist to patterned UV light, (5) developing the resulting patterned silicone polyamic acid-photoresist composite (6) etching exposed substrate through the patterned silicone polyamic acid-photoresist composite, and (7) stripping the silicone polyamic acid-photoresist composite from the resulting etched substrate where the silicone-polyamic acid is as previously defined in claim 1.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
13 words
A method in accordance with claim 2, where the organic dye is coumarin.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
12 words
A method in accordance with claim 2, where the substrate is aluminum.
