SOLUTION FOR TREATMENT OF RESIST SUBSTRATE AFTER DEVELOPMENT PROCESSING, AND METHOD FOR TREATMENT OF RESIST SUBSTRATE USING THE SAME

摘要

The present invention provides a resist substrate-treating solution for improving defects on a developed pattern surface, and also provides a resist substrate treatment method employing the treating solution. The resist substrate-treating solution comprises a solvent and a nitrogen-containing or oxygen-containing water-soluble polymer such as a polyamine, a polyol or a polyether. In the treatment method, a developed resist pattern is treated with the resist substrate-treating solution and then washed with pure water.
