Abstract
A resist underlayer film-forming composition for lithography capable of being dry-etched during pattern transfer from the upper layer or during substrate processing and capable of being removed with an alkaline aqueous solution after the substrate processing. The composition includes a polymer (A) having an acrylamide structure or an acrylic acid ester structure; a polymer (B) having a blocked isocyanate structure; and a solvent (C). The polymer (A) is a polymer including a unit structure of Formula (1). The polymer (B) is a polymer including a unit structure of Formula (2). A method for manufacturing a semiconductor device includes steps for: forming a resist pattern; etching an inorganic hard mask layer with use of the resist pattern; etching a resist underlayer film with use of the pattered inorganic hard mask layer; and processing a semiconductor substrate with use of the pattered resist underlayer film.
