Abstract
A resist composition is provided comprising (A) an additive polymer of acyl-protected hexafluoroalcohol structure, (B) a base polymer having a structure derived from lactone ring, hydroxyl group and/or maleic anhydride, the base polymer becoming soluble in alkaline developer under the action of acid, (C) a photoacid generator, and (D) an organic solvent. The additive polymer is transparent to radiation of wavelength up to 200 nm, and its properties can be tailored by a choice of the polymer structure.
