Abstract:
A resist pattern-forming method includes forming a resist coating film using a radiation-sensitive resin composition. The resist coating film is exposed and developed using a developer solution containing no less than 80% by mass of an organic solvent. The radiation-sensitive resin composition includes a polymer component including a polymer having an acid-labile group, and a radiation-sensitive acid generator. The polymer component includes, in an identical polymer or different polymers, a first structural unit having a first hydrocarbon group, and a second structural unit having a second hydrocarbon group. The first hydrocarbon group is an unsubstituted or substituted branched chain group, or the is like. The second hydrocarbon group has an adamantane skeleton. A molar ratio of the second hydrocarbon group to the first hydrocarbon group is less than 1. A proportion of a structural unit having a hydroxyl group in the polymer component is less than 5 mol %.

Abstract:
A resist pattern-forming method includes applying a radiation-sensitive resin composition on a substrate to form a resist film. The radiation-sensitive resin composition includes an acid-labile group-containing polymer and a photoacid generator. The resist film is exposed. The resist film is developed using a developer including an organic solvent in an amount of no less than 80% by mass to a total amount of the developer. The radiation-sensitive resin composition has a contrast value γ of from 5.0 to 30.0. The contrast value γ is calculated from a resist dissolution contrast curve obtained by changing only a dose of a light used for exposing the resist film.
