PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a polysiloxane which can give a radiation-sensitive resin composition having a high transparency to light of a wavelength of 193 nm or shorter and being highly sensitive, and excellent in dry etching resistance, developability, adhesion to a substrate, or the like, to provide a method for producing the same, and to obtain a radiation-sensitive resin composition containing the polysiloxane. SOLUTION: The polysiloxane is an alkali-insoluble or difficulty alkali-soluble acid-dissociable-group-containing polysiloxane which becomes alkali-soluble when the acid-dissociable groups are dissociated and has an Mw/Mn ratio of at most 2.5. The polysiloxane is produced by a method having a step of polycondensing a starting silane compound in the presence of an acid catalyst. |
