Abstract
The present invention relates to a method of forming a pattern using a photosensitive film having bleaching properties for use as a contrast enhancing layer. The photosensitive film comprises an aromatic diazonium salt having extremely high purity content. In addition, no harmful metals are incorporated during preparation. Fine patterns of various semiconductor devices can thus be formed with high accuracy. The diazonium salt is selected from the group consisting of trifluromethanesulfonic acid salt, methanesulfonic acid salts, and trifluromethaneacetic salts of aromatic diazonium compounds.
