PHOTOSENSITIVE RESIN AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCING MICROLENS

摘要

A material for a microlens having heat resistance, high resolution and high light-extraction efficiency is provided. A positive resist composition comprises an alkali-soluble polymer (A) containing a unit structure having an aromatic fused ring or a derivative thereof, and a compound (B) having an organic group which undergoes photodecomposition to yield an alkali-soluble group. The positive resist composition has coating film properties of a refractive index at a wavelength of 633 nm of 1.6 or more and a transmittance at wavelengths of 400 to 730 nm of 80% or more. A pattern forming method comprises applying the positive resist composition, drying the composition, exposing the composition to light, and developing the composition.
