Abstract
A photoresist comprising a light sensitive component and an essentially aromatic alkali soluble novolak resin comprising the product resulting from the acid condensation of an aromatic aldehyde and a phenol where the resin has a molecular weight in excess of 1,500 and a glass transition temperature in excess of 125.degree. C. If desired, the aromatic novolak resin may be blended with a conventional novolak resin to regulate the glass transition temperature of the resin.
