FILM-FORMING COMPOSITION, INSULATING FILM WITH LOW DIELECTRIC CONSTANT, FORMATION METHOD THEREOF, AND SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE

摘要

In the invention, a silica sol prepared by hydrolyzing and condensing a silane compound represented by the following formula: Si(OR1)4 or R2nSi(OR3)4-n wherein R1s, R2(s) and R3(s) may be the same or different when a plurality of them are contained in the molecule and each independently represents a linear or branched C1-4 alkyl group in the presence of a hydrophilic basic catalyst and a hydrophobic basic catalyst is used for a conventional porous-film forming composition.
