A positive resist composition comprises (A) a resin component which becomes soluble in an alkaline developer under the action of an acid and (B) an acid generator. The resin (A) is a polymer comprising recurring units containing a non-leaving hydroxyl group represented by at least one of formulae (1-1) to (1-3) wherein R1 is H, methyl or trifluoromethyl, X is a single bond or methylene, Y is hydroxyl or hydroxymethyl, and m is 0, 1 or 2. The composition is improved in resolution when processed by lithography. |
