<p>A new class of 3-diazo-3,4-dihydrocoumarin compounds which are useful as photoactive compounds in a wide variety of applications including photoresists and other opto-electronic applications are disclosed and claimed. Preferred embodiments include 6-sulfonyl-3-diazo-4-oxo-3,4-dihydrocoumarin esters. These compounds exhibit very high photosensitivity in the deep ultraviolet (DUV) region (ca. 250 nm), and therefore, are useful as photoactive compounds in DUV photoresist formulations.</p> |
