Abstract

This invention relates to a positive photoresist system possessing a high degree of thermal stability. The photoresist system contains a preformed polyglutarimide polymer dissolved in a non-reacting solvent. The positive resist is capable of achieving high resolution images by exposure to a wide range of wavelengths and development using an aqueous base developer. The photoresist system is also suitable for use as a planarizing layer in a multiple layer system.
