Abstract

A method of forming a photoresist pattern wherein a photoresist coating film of naphthoquinone diazide sulfonate of novolak is formed on a substrate layer, the photoresist coating film is exposed by selectively irradiating with near ultraviolet radiation of 350 to 450 nm through a photomask, and the exposed photoresist coating film is developed with an either a negative type or positive type developing solution. The resultant photoresist pattern is usable for manufacturing a highly integrated circuit such as LSI which requires fine processing techniques.
