Abstract

The disclosed invention relates to novel norborne-type monomers containing pendent lactone or sultone groups. The invention also relates to norborne-type polymers and copolymers containing pendent lactone or sultone groups. These polymers and copolymers are useful in making photoimagable materials. The photoimagable materials are particularly suitable for use in photoresist compositions useful in 193 and 157 nm photolithography.
