Abstract

Chemically amplified resist material which comprises: I. an acid-sensitive terpolymer produced upon copolymerization of (i) a first monomer unit having a structure which contains an alkali-soluble group protected with an alicyclic hydrocarbon-containing protective group, (ii) a second monomer unit having a lactone structure, and (iii) a third monomer unit having a structure which contains an alkali-soluble group protected with a protective group different from that of said first monomer unit; and II. a photoacid generator capable of producing an acid upon exposure to a patterning radiation, and the process for forming resist patterns using this resist material.
