Abstract
A photosensitive resist () for coating on a semiconductor substrate or a mask comprises a photo acid generator (D), a solvent (E) and at least two different base polymers, of which a first base polymer comprises cycloaliphatic parent structures (A) which substantially absorb incident light at 248 nm and are substantially transparent to incident light at 193 nm, and a second base polymer comprises aromatic parent structures (B) which substantially absorb incident light at 193 nm and are substantially transparent to incident light at 248 nm. If such a resist () is applied in a coat thickness of from 50 to 400 nm to a substrate and the proportion of the second base polymer having the aromatic parent structure is between 1 and 25 mol %, a relatively high structure contrast, better stability to etching and a reduction of defects are advantageously achieved in an exposure at a wavelength of 193 nm. Exposure over the entire depth range of the resist () is ensured thereby.
