PATTERN FORMING METHOD, USE OF A CHEMICAL AMPLIFICATION RESIST COMPOSITION IN SAID METHOD

摘要

A pattern forming method, including: (i) forming a film from a chemical amplification resist composition; (ii) exposing the film, so as to form an exposed film; and (iii) developing the exposed film by using a developer containing an organic solvent, wherein the chemical amplification resist composition contains: (A) a resin capable of decreasing a solubility of the resin (A) in the developer containing an organic solvent by an action of an acid; (B) a compound capable of generating an acid upon irradiation with an actinic ray or radiation; and (C) a basic, compound or ammonium salt compound whose basicity decreases upon irradiation with an actinic ray or radiation, and a resist composition used for the pattern forming method and a resist film formed from the resist composition are provided.
