Abstract

Abstract A positive type radiation-sensitive resin composition which comprises a 1,2-quinonediazide compound and an alkali-soluble novolac resin produced by poly-condensing phenols represented by the formulas (I) and (II) in a molar ratio of (I)/(II) of 1/99 to 100/0 with a carbonyl compound: ##STR1## wherein R 1 and R 2 , which may be the same or different, represent hydroxyl groups, hydrogen atoms, alkyl groups, aryl groups, aralkyl groups, alkenyl groups, halogen atoms, alkoxy groups, alkoxycarbonyl groups, aroxycarbonyl groups, alkanoyloxy groups, aroyloxy groups, acyl groups, cyano groups or nitro groups, ##STR2## wherein R 3 , R 4 and R 5 , which may be the same or different, represent hydrogen atoms, alkyl groups, aryl groups, aralkyl groups, alkenyl groups, halogen atoms, alkoxy groups, alkoxycarbonyl groups, aroxycarbonyl groups, alkanoyloxy groups, aroyloxy groups, acyl groups, cyano groups or nitro groups. The above positive type radiation-sensitive resin composition is excellent in dry-etching resistance, resolution and heat resistance, and appropriate as a positive type resist for producing integrated circuits in which a resist pattern is formed, and also as a positive type resist for producing a mask.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 2
Claim 1
Independent Claim 99 words
A positive-working photoresist composition comprising, in admixture, as a binder, an alkali-soluble novolak resin and a photosensitive amount of at least one photosensitive compound represented by Formula (I): ##STR8## wherein at least one R group represents a 1,2-naphthoquinone diazido-4-sulfonyl group or a 1,2-naphthoquinone diazido-5-sulfonyl group, and the remaining R groups, which may be the same or different, each represents a hydrogen atom, a 1,2-naphthoquinone diazdo-4-sulfonyl group, or a 1,2-naphthoquinone diazido-5-sulfonyl group, wherein said resin and photosensitive compound are employed in sufficient quantity amounts to enable a positive resist image to be obtained upon light pattern exposure and subsequent development.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 99 words
A positive-working photoresist composition comprising, in admixture, as a binder, an alkali-soluble novolak resin and a photosensitive amount of at least one photosensitive compound represented by Formula (I): ##STR8## wherein at least one R group represents a 1,2-naphthoquinone diazido-4-sulfonyl group or a 1,2-naphthoquinone diazido-5-sulfonyl group, and the remaining R groups, which may be the same or different, each represents a hydrogen atom, a 1,2-naphthoquinone diazdo-4-sulfonyl group, or a 1,2-naphthoquinone diazido-5-sulfonyl group, wherein said resin and photosensitive compound are employed in sufficient quantity amounts to enable a positive resist image to be obtained upon light pattern exposure and subsequent development.
