Abstract

See full text

To a resist composition comprising a polymer comprising recurring units having an acid labile group and an acid generator is added a metal-acid complex. The metal is Ce, Cu, Zn, Fe, In, Y, Yb, Sn, Tm, Sc, Ni, Nd, Hf, Zr, Ti, La, Ag, Ba, Ho, Tb, Lu, Eu, Dy, Gd, Rb, Sr or Cs. The acid is a fluoroalkylsulfonic acid, fluorinated arylsulfonic acid, fluorinated tetraphenylboric acid, fluoroalkylsulfonimidic acid or fluoroalkylsulfonemethide acid. Due to a high contrast of alkaline dissolution rate before and after exposure, high resolution, high sensitivity, and controlled acid diffusion rate, the composition forms a pattern with satisfactory profile and minimal line edge roughness.
