New polysilane copolymers comprise recurring units of -Si(X)(Y)- and Si(A)(B)-, Si(X)(Y) being different from Si(A)(B), wherein X and Y together have 1-13 carbon atoms, and X and Y each independently is hydrogen, alkyl, cycloalkyl, phenyl, alkylphenyl, or phenylalkyl, with the proviso that only one of X and Y contains a phenyl moiety, or together X and Y are an alkylene group forming a ring with the adjoining Si atom, and wherein A and B together have 3-13 carbon atoms, and A and B each independently is alkyl or cycloalkyl, with the proviso (a) that when one of A and B is ethyl, the other is not methyl or ethyl, and (b) that when one of A ad B is n-propyl and the other is methyl, X and Y are not both methyl. Corresponding homopolysilanes are also provided. Upon ultraviolet irradiation, they photodepolymerize to form volatile products. As a result, they represent a new class of photoresists which enable direct formation of a positive image eliminating the heretofore required development step.
