Abstract
A pattern-forming method includes providing a resist underlayer film on a substrate using a resist underlayer film-forming composition. The resist underlayer film-forming composition includes a first polymer having a glass transition temperature of 0 to 180° C. A silicon-based oxide film is provided on a surface of the resist underlayer film. A resist pattern is provided on a surface of the silicon-based oxide film using a resist composition. The silicon-based oxide film and the resist underlayer film are sequentially dry-etched using the resist pattern as a mask. The substrate is dry-etched using the dry-etched resist underlayer film as a mask.
