Abstract
A pattern-forming method comprises patternwise exposing a predetermined region of a resist material film made from a photosensitive resin composition comprising a chemically amplified resist material to a first radioactive ray that is ionizing radiation or nonionizing radiation having a wavelength of no greater than 400 nm. The resist material film patternwise exposed is floodwise exposed to a second radioactive ray that is nonionizing radiation having a wavelength greater than the wavelength of the nonionizing radiation for the patternwise exposing and greater than 200 nm. The chemically amplified resist material comprises a base component, and a generative component that is capable of generating a radiation-sensitive sensitizer and an acid upon an exposure. The generative component comprises a radiation-sensitive sensitizer generating agent. The radiation-sensitive sensitizer generating agent comprises a compound represented by formula (A).
