<p>A resist composition according to the present invention includes at least a base resin, a photoacid generator and a solvent, wherein the photoacid generator comprises a fluorine-containing sulfonic acid salt of the following general formula (4). In the formula, X independently represents a hydrogen atom or a fluorine atom; n represents an integer of 1 to 6; R1 represents a hydrogen atom, or an alkyl, alkenyl, oxoalkyl, aryl or aralkyl group; any of hydrogen atoms on carbons in R1 may be substituted with a substituent; R2 represents RAO or RBRCN; and A represents a divalent group. This fluorine-containing sulfonic acid salt can serve as a photoacid generator having high solubility in a resist solvent and thus can suitably be used for a resist composition such that the resist composition shows high resolution, wide DOF, small LER and high sensitivity to form a good pattern shape in lithographic processes.</p> |
