Abstract
The objective of this invention is to provide a composition for forming a topcoat layer enabling to produce a pattern excellent in roughness and in pattern shape; and also to provide a pattern formation method employing that composition is described. The means for solving this objective is a composition for forming a topcoat layer, comprising a solvent and a fullerene derivative having a hydrophilic group; and also a method of forming a pattern by casting the above composition on a resist surface and then by subjecting it to exposure and development.
