The present invention provides a salt of the formula (I): wherein X represents divalent or trivalent residue of acyclic hydrocarbon having 1 to 30 carbon atoms or divalent or trivalent residue of hydrocarbon having 3 to 30 carbon atoms which contains monocyclic or bicyclic ring, wherein -CH<SUB>2</SUB>- in the hydrocarbon may be substituted with -O- and one or more hydrogen atom in X is optionally substituted with alkoxy group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, perfluoroalkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, hydroxyalkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, hydroxyl group or cyano group; Q<SUP>1 </SUP>and Q<SUP>2 </SUP>each independently represent fluorine atom or perfluoroalkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms; A<SUP>+</SUP> represents organic counter ion; Y represents hydroxyl group, cyano group or methoxy group; and n shows 1 or 2. The present invention also provides a chemically amplified resist composition comprising the salt of the formula (I). |
