Abstract

A positive photoresist composition is disclosed, which comprises an alkali-soluble resin, at least one of 1,2-naphthoquinonediazidesulfonic monoesters of specific polyhydroxy compounds, and at least one of 1,2-naphthoquinonediazidesulfonic ester of specific polyhydroxy compounds. The positive photoresist composition exhibits remarkably improved sensitivity and resolution, and broad development latitude regardless of the film thickness, and further, low film thickness dependence of resist performances.
