Resist composition for deep ultraviolet light.

摘要

A resist composition for deep ultraviolet light comprising (a) one of the following resin components (i)-(iii): (i) a resin which becomes alkali-soluble by eliminating protective groups by the action of an acid, (ii) a combination of an alkali-soluble resin and a dissolution-inhibiting compound, and (iii) a combination of an alkali-soluble resin and a crosslinkable compound, (b) an acid generater, (c) a special anthracene derivative, and (d) a solvent, is suitable for forming a pattern using deep ultraviolet light, KrF excimer laser light, etc., on a highly reflective substrate having level differences due to absorption of undesirable reflected deep ultraviolet light.
