Abstract
A process of developing an image-wise exposed photoresist-coated substrate comprising: coating a substrate with a positive working photoresist comprising an admixture of an alkali soluble binder resin and photoactive formula (V): ##STR1## wherein R.sub.2 is selected from the group consisting of an OD group, a halide group, a lower alkyl group having 1 or 4 carbon atoms and a lower alkoxy group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and D is selected from the group consisting of o-naphthoquinone diazide sulfonyl group and hydrogen; with the proviso that at least four D's are o-naphthoquinone diazide sulfonyl groups; subjecting the coating on the substrate to an image-wise exposure of radiation; and subjecting the image-wise coated substrate to a developing solution to remove the exposed areas of the radiation-exposed coating, leaving a positive image pattern.
