Chemical amplification type positive resist composition, resist laminated material, resist pattern forming method and method of manufacturing semiconductor device

摘要

The present invention provides a resist composition comprising (A) polyhydroxystyrene in which at least a portion of hydrogen atoms of hydroxyl groups are substituted with an acid-dissociable dissolution inhibiting group, and the solubility in an alkali solution of the polyhydroxystyrene increasing when the acid-dissociable dissolution inhibiting group is eliminated by an action of an acid, and (B) a component capable of generating an acid by irradiation with radiation, wherein a retention rate of the acid-dissociable dissolution inhibiting group of the component (A) after a dissociation test using hydrochloric acid is 40% or less, and also provides a chemical amplification type positive resist composition which contains polyhydroxystyrene in which at least a portion of hydrogen atoms of hydroxyl groups are substituted with a lower alkoxy-alkyl group having a straight-chain or branched alkoxy group, and the solubility in an alkali solution of the polyhydroxystyrene increasing when the lower alkoxy-alkyl group is eliminated by an action of an acid, in place of the component (A).
