A polymer capable of increasing alkali solubility under the action of acid, as a base resin is blended with a copolymer comprising recurring units derived from (meth)acrylate, vinyl ether, vinylfluorene, vinylanthracene, vinylpyrene, vinylbiphenyl, stilbene, styrylnaphthalene or dinaphthylethylene, and fluorine-containing recurring units, as a polymeric additive to formulate a resist composition. The photoresist film formed using the resist composition is effective for minimizing outgassing therefrom during the EUV lithography. The resist film has a hydrophilic surface and is effective for suppressing formation of blob defects after development. |
