Abstract
A radiation sensitive resin composition useful as a chemically amplified positive tone resist is provided. The composition comprises (A) a copolymer which becomes soluble in an alkali developing solution by the action of an acid, the copolymer containing a recurring unit (I) having a structure which is decomposed by the action of an acid and increases the solubility in an alkaline developing solution and a recurring unit(II) obtained from a compound having at least two (meth)acryloyl groups in the molecule by the cleavage of the carbon-carbon double bond, and (B) a photoacid generator which produces an acid on being irradiated by a radiation. The composition exhibits high resolution, superb capability of producing superior pattern forms, and excellent resistance to PED, and high process stability, is affected by a standing wave only to a minimum extent, and possessed prominent heat resistance.
