Abstract
In a positive photoresist composition including (A) an alkali-soluble resin and (B) a photosensitizer, Ingredient (B) contains (B-1) a quinonediazide ester of, e.g., bis[2,5-dimethyl-3-(2-hydroxy-5-methylbenzyl)-4-hydroxyphenyl]methane or 2,4-bis[4-hydroxy-3-(4-hydroxybenzyl)-5-methylbenzyl]-6-cyclohexylphenol, and (B-2) a quinonediazide ester of, e.g., methyl gallate or 2,2-bis(2,3,4-trihydroxyphenyl)propane. The composition exhibits high sensitivity and definition, and improved focal depth range properties and underexposure margin.
