Abstract:
A resist pattern-forming method includes applying a photoresist composition directly or indirectly on a front face of a substrate to form a photoresist film. A topcoat layer is laminated directly or indirectly on a front face of the photoresist film. The photoresist film is subjected to liquid immersion lithography in a presence of a liquid immersion liquid on a front face of the topcoat layer. Part of the topcoat layer is removed after subjecting the photoresist film to the liquid immersion lithography. The photoresist film is developed after the part of the topcoat layer is removed.
Abstract:
A fluorine-containing polymer for use in a radiation-sensitive resin composition is used for forming a photoresist film in a process of forming a resist pattern, including a liquid immersion lithographic process in which radiation is emitted through a liquid having a refractive index larger than the refractive index of air at a wavelength of 193 nm, and being present between a lens and the photoresist film. The fluorine-containing polymer has a weight average molecular weight determined by gel permeation chromatography in the range from 1,000 to 50,000 and a receding contact angle with water and the photoresist film formed therefrom is 70° or more.
