Abstract

Polymers and compositions for forming self-imageable films encompassing such polymers that encompass norbornene-type repeating unit having at least one phenolic functionality and maleic anhydride-type repeating unit, which can be formulated to be either positive tone imaging or negative tone imaging. The films formed thereby are useful as self-imageable layers in the manufacture of microelectronic, such as semiconductor, and optoelectronic devices.
