Abstract
A multilayer photoresist includes an X-ray photoresist layer photosensitibe to X rays formed on a substrate, and a photoresist layer containing an X-ray absorbing agent formed on the X-ray photoresist layer. When the multilayer photoresist is selectively exposed to, for example, an I line (one spectrum), and developed, a mask to be used in the subsequent exposure to X rays is formed in the photoresist layer containing the X-ray absorbing agent. The X-ray photoresist layer on the substrate is then exposed to X rays by using the mask formed in the photoresist layer, and is developed, a resist pattern is obtained.
