Fluorine-Containing Sulfonate Resin, Fluorine-Containing N-Sulfonyloxyimide Resin, Resist Composition and Pattern Formation Method

摘要

According to the present invention, there are provided a fluorine-containing sulfonate salt resin or fluorine-containing sulfonate ester resin having a structure of the following general formula (A) and a fluorine-containing N-sulfonyloxyimide resin having a repeating unit of the general formula (17). It is possible obtain a resist composition using the above resin such that the resist composition can attain high resolution, wide DOF, small LER and high sensitivity and form a good pattern shape.
