An undercoat-forming material comprising a copolymer derived from an indene and a compound having a hydroxyl or epoxy group and a double bond, an organic solvent, an acid generator, and a crosslinker, optionally combined with an intermediate layer having an antireflective effect, has an absorptivity coefficient sufficient to provide an antireflective effect at a thickness of at least 200 nm and a high etching resistance as demonstrated by slow etching rates with CF4/CHF3 and Cl2/BCl3 gases for substrate processing.
摘要:
A polymer comprises recurring units of formula (1) and recurring units having acid labile groups which units increase alkali solubility as a result of the acid labile groups being decomposed under the action of acid, and has a Mw of 1,000-500,000. R1 and R2 each are hydrogen, hydroxyl, hydroxyalkyl, alkyl, alkoxy or halogen, and n is 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4. The polymer is useful as a base resin to form a chemically amplified, positive resist composition which has advantages including a significantly enhanced contrast of alkali dissolution rate before and after exposure, high sensitivity, high resolution, and high etching resistance and is best suited as a micropatterning material for use in VLSI manufacture.

A polymer is composed of recurring units of hydroxyvinylnaphthalene, (meth)acrylic units having a lactone ring fused to a bridged ring, and (meth)acrylic units having acid labile groups. A positive resist composition comprising the polymer as a base resin, when exposed to high-energy radiation and developed, exhibits a high sensitivity, a high resolution, and a minimal line edge roughness due to controlled swell during development.
