COMPOSITION FOR FORMATION OF ANTI-REFLECTIVE FILM, AND PATTERN FORMATION METHOD USING THE COMPOSITION

摘要

The present invention provides a composition for forming a top anti-reflection coating having a low refractive index, realizing a gradual swing curve and giving a small swing ratio. This composition comprises a solvent and an anthracene skeleton-containing polymer having a hydrophilic group. The composition forms an anti-reflection coating on a photoresist film, and can be used in a photolithographic process for forming a pattern by use of light having a wavelength of 160 to 260 nm.
