Abstract:
1. A chemically amplified positive resist composition comprising 100 parts by weight of a polymer comprising recurring units (a) having the formula (2), at least one of recurring units (b) and (c) represented by the general formula (3) and having an acid labile group-substituted carboxyl and/or hydroxyl group, and recurring units (d) having an adhesive group selected from among hydroxyl, carboxyl, lactone ring, carbonate, thiocarbonate, carbonyl, cyclic acetal, ether, ester, sulfonic acid ester, cyano, amide, and —O—C(═O)-G- wherein G is sulfur or NH, 50 to 10,000 parts by weight of an organic solvent, 0.01 to 100 parts by weight of an acid generator in the form of a sulfonium salt having the general formula (15), 0 to 100 parts by weight of a basic compound, and 0 to 10 parts by weight of a surfactant, wherein R 1 is hydrogen, fluorine, methyl or trifluoromethyl, R 2 is hydrogen or a straight, branched or cyclic, mono or divalent hydrocarbon group of 1 to 10 carbon atoms, R 3 is an acid labile group of 1 to 15 carbon atoms, A 1 is a straight, branched or cyclic, divalent hydrocarbon group of 1 to 10 carbon atoms, A 2 is a straight, branched or cyclic, di or trivalent hydrocarbon group of 1 to 10 carbon atoms, A 2 and R 2 may bond together to form a ring with the adjacent nitrogen atom, k 1 is 0, R 3 is an acid labile group selected from the following: wherein the broken line denotes a valence bond, and “a” is a number in the range: 0<a<1.0, wherein R 4 and R 6 each are hydrogen or methyl; R 5 and R 8 each are an acid labile group; R 7 is a straight, branched or cyclic C 1 -C 10 alkylene group or a trivalent form of the alkylene group with one hydrogen eliminated, which may contain an ether or ester moiety, or a phenylene or naphthylene group; Y is a single bond or —C(═O)—O—R 9 —; R 9 is a straight, branched or cyclic C 1 -C 10 alkylene group which may contain an ether or ester moiety, or a phenylene or naphthylene group; Z is a single bond or —C(═O)—O—R 10 —; R 10 is a straight, branched or cyclic C 1 -C 10 alkylene group which may contain an ether or ester moiety, or a phenylene or naphthylene group; the phenylene and naphthylene groups may be substituted with fluorine, trifluoromethyl, cyano, amide or C 1 -C 6 alkyl or alkoxy radical; n is 1 or 2, b and c are numbers in the range: 0≦b<1.0, 0≦c<1.0, and 0<b+c<1, wherein R p5 , R p6 , and R p7 are each independently a straight, or branched C 1 -C 10 alkyl, alkenyl or oxoalkenyl group which may contain fluorine, hydroxyl or ether bond, or a substituted or unsubstituted C 6 -C 18 aryl, aralkyl or aryloxoalkyl group, alternatively, any two or more of R p5 , R p6 , and R p7 may bond together to form a ring with the sulfur atom, R p8 is hydrogen or trifluoromethyl, R p9 is a straight, branched or cyclic C 6 -C 30 monovalent hydrocarbon group which may contain a heteroatom.
