Abstract

The present invention relates to a novel maleimide- or alicyclic olefin-based monomer, a copolymer resin of these monomers and a photoresist using the copolymer resin. The maleimide-introduced copolymer resin according to the present invention can easily be copolymerized with alicyclic olefin unit, has a physical property capable of enduring in 2.38% TMAH developer and increases adhesion of ArF or KrF photoresist. The photoresist film using a copolymer resin according to the present invention can be applied to highly integrate semiconductor devices.
