Method of preparing resist pattern

摘要

A method of preparing a fine and highly precise resist pattern comprising a step of forming a positive resist layer consisting of poly-(methacrylic anhydride) on a substrate, a step of irradiating the resist layer thus formed with a predetermined pattern of ionizing radiation and a step of developing the irradiated resist pattern with a developer comprising a solvent mixture composed of a polar organic solvent (A) capable of dissolving poly-(methyacrylic anhydride) and a non-solvent (B) incapable of dissolving poly-(methacrylic anhydride).
