Abstract

A chemically amplified positive resist composition contains (A) an organic solvent, (B) a base resin in the form of a polysiloxane having phenolic hydroxyl groups some of which are protected with alkoxyalkyl groups and having a weight average molecular weight of 2,000-50,000, (C) a photoacid generator, and (D) a vinyl ether group-containing compound. The composition has high sensitivity to actinic radiation, is developable with aqueous base to form a resist pattern, and lends itself to fine patterning.
