    摘要: A proposal is made for the photolithographic formation of a patterned resist layer on a substrate without the troubles due to reflection of the exposure light on the substrate surface. Thus, patterning is conducted on a photoresist laminate comprising (a) a substrate; (b) a specific anti-reflection coating layer formed on one surface of the substrate; and (c) a photoresist layer formed on the anti-reflection coating layer from a specific negative-working chemical-sensitization photoresist composition comprising an oxime sulfonate acid generating agent. The patterning procedure comprises the steps of: (A) exposing, pattern-wise to actinic rays, the photoresist layer of the photoresist laminate; (B) subjecting the photoresist layer to a heat treatment; (C) subjecting the photoresist layer to a development treatment to dissolve away the photoresist layer in the areas unexposed to actinic rays in step (A) so as to expose bare the anti-reflection coating layer in the areas unexposed to the actinic rays leaving a patterned resist layer in the areas exposed to the actinic rays; and (D) removing the pattern-wise exposed anti-reflection coating layer by dry etching with the patterned photoresist layer as a mask.
