Abstract
There is provided a resist underlayer film forming composition for lithography, which in order to prevent a resist pattern from collapsing after development in accordance with the miniaturization of the resist pattern, is applied to multilayer film process by a thin film resist, has a lower dry etching rate than resists and semiconductor substrates, and has a satisfactory etching resistance relative to a substrate to be processed in the processing of the substrate. A resist underlayer film forming composition used in lithography process by a multiplayer film, comprises a polymer containing a unit structure having an aromatic fused ring, a unit structure having a protected carboxyl group or a unit structure having an oxy ring. A method of forming a pattern by use of the resist underlayer film forming composition. A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device by utilizing the method of forming a pattern.
