Positive-working radiation-sensitive mixture.

摘要

A novel positive-working radiation-sensitive mixture having a high sensitivity to radiation in a short-wavelength UV region is provided which can be developed in an aqueous alkaline solution, has a stable acid latent image and is used for the production of a semiconductor. The mixture comprises, as indispensable components, a) a binder insoluble in water but soluble in an aqueous alkaline solution, b) a compound having at least one bond cleavable with an acid, c) a compound capable of producing an acid upon radiation, and d1) a basic ammonium compound or d2) a basic sulfonium compound.
