Abstract

A pattern-forming material comprises a substrate and a radiation sensitive chalcogenide layer disposed thereon. The radiation sensitive chalcogenide layer consists of an amorphous layer having a chemical composition of 75 to 95 mol% of selenium and 5 to 25 mol% of germanium and a silver layer superimposed thereon. The pattern-forming materials having the radiation sensitive chalcogenide layer of the invention are particularly useful in lithographic applications.
