Abstract
Disclosed is a novel chemical-amplification positive-working photoresist composition capable of giving a patterned resist layer with excellent properties such as photosensitivity, pattern resolution, heat resistance and cross sectional profile of the patterned resist layer. The composition is characterized by the use of, as the film-forming resinous component, a hydroxyl-containing resinous ingredient which a combination of a first resin of which from 30 to 60% the hydroxyl groups are substituted by acid-dissociable solubility-reducing groups and a second resin of which from 5 to 20% of the hydroxyl groups are substituted by acid-dissociable groups of the same kind as in the first resin a weight proportion of 1.9 to 9:1.
