摘要:
A chemically amplified positive resist composition for EB or EUV lithography is provided comprising (A) a polymer or a blend of polymers wherein a film of the polymer or polymer blend is insoluble in alkaline developer, but turns soluble under the action of acid, (B) an acid generator, (C) a basic compound, and (D) a solvent. The basic compound (C) is a polymer comprising recurring units bearing a side chain having a secondary or tertiary amine structure as a basic active site and constitutes a part or the entirety of the polymer or polymers as component (A).

There is disclosed a negative resist composition wherein a base resin contains at least repeating units represented by the following general formula (1) and general formula (2) and has a weight average molecular weight of 1,000 to 10,000, and the compound containing a nitrogen atom as a basic component contains one or more kinds of amine compounds having a carboxyl group and not having a hydrogen atom covalently bonded to a base-center nitrogen atom. There can be a negative resist composition in which a bridge hardly occurs, substrate dependence is low and a pattern with a high sensitivity and a high resolution can be formed, and a patterning process using the same.
摘要:
A polymer comprising 0.5-10 mol % of recurring units having acid generating capability and 50-99.5 mol % of recurring units providing for dissolution in alkaline developer is used to formulate a chemically amplified negative resist composition. When used in a lithography process, the composition exhibits a high resolution and forms a negative resist pattern of a profile with minimized LER and undercut.
