Description:
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS 
     This application is a Continuation Application of PCT Application No. PCT/JP2017/030178, filed Aug. 23, 2017, and based upon and claiming the benefit of priority from Japanese Patent Application No. 2016-169385, filed Aug. 31, 2016, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. 
    
    
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     1. Field of the Invention 
     The present invention relates to an actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive resin composition, a pattern forming method, and a method of manufacturing an electronic device. 
     More specifically, the present invention relates to an actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive resin composition used in a step of manufacturing a semiconductor such as an IC, the manufacturing of a circuit substrate such as a liquid crystal and a thermal head, and a lithographic step of other photofabrication, a pattern forming method, and a method of manufacturing an electronic device including the pattern forming method. 
     2. Description of the Related Art 
     In the related art, microfabrication by lithography using a resist composition has been performed in the process of manufacturing a semiconductor device such as an integrated circuit (IC) and a large scale integrated circuit (LSI). In recent years, according to the high integration of integrated circuits, formation of ultrafine patterns in a submicron region and a quarter micron region has been required. Along with this, there is a tendency in that an exposure wavelength also becomes shorter from g rays to i rays further to excimer laser light such as KrF (for example, see JP1996-337616A (JP-H08-337616A) and JP2000-267280A). These days, lithography using electron beams, X-rays, or extreme ultraviolet rays (EUV light) in addition to the excimer laser light is also being developed (for example, see JP2005-275282A). 
     The high functionality of various electronic apparatuses are required, and accordingly, further improvement in characteristics of the resist pattern used for microfabrication is also required, but it was difficult to simultaneously satisfy resolution, roughness characteristics such as line width roughness (LWR), and exposure latitude (EL) to a recently required level. 
     In particular, in the case of exposing the resist film to EUV light, since the exposure is usually performed under vacuum, there is tendency in that gas derived from the reactant or the like in an exposed portion is easily generated from the resist film, but there is concern in that the gas may damage the exposure machine. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     In view of the above, an object of the present invention is to provide an actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive resin composition that can form a pattern excellent in resolution, roughness characteristics, exposure latitude, and outgassing performance at a high level and a pattern forming method.

     Hereinafter, respective essential components and optional components contained in the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive resin composition are described. 
     &lt;Resin (A)&gt; 
     The actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive resin composition according to the embodiment of the present invention includes the repeating unit (a) having two or more phenolic hydroxyl groups represented by Formula (I-1) and a repeating unit (b) having a group (hereinafter, referred to as an “acid-decomposable group”) in which a protective group including a monocyclic ring leaves due to an action of an acid so as to generate a polar group, as a base resin. 
     By combining the repeating unit (a) and the repeating unit (b), it is possible to cause the deprotection reactivity of the acid-decomposable group and the diffusion suppressing performance on an acid (hereinafter, referred to as a “generated acid”) generated from a compound (B) described below to be compatible with each other at a high level. As a result, it is possible to cause roughness characteristics such as resolution, EL, and LWR to be compatible with each other at an extremely high level, and satisfactory outgassing performances can be provided. 
     By at least two phenolic hydroxyl groups included in the repeating unit (a), it is possible to suppress the diffusion of the generated acid by the increase of the reactivity due to hydrophilization of a film and the increase in the glass transition temperature (hereinafter referred to as “high Tg”) due to an improvement in the hydrogen bonding force. It is assumed that, by selecting the repeating unit (b) having an acid-decomposable group protected with a protective group including a monocyclic ring that can cause the deprotection reactivity in the acid-decomposable group and the diffusion suppressing performance of the generated acid to be compatible with each other, as a repeating unit having an acid-decomposable group combined with the repeating unit (a), it is possible to maximize the superiority of the repeating unit (a), such that a pattern that is excellent in all of resolution, EL, roughness characteristics, and outgassing performance at a high level can be formed. 
     —Repeating Unit (a)— 
     The repeating unit (a) is a repeating unit having two or more phenolic hydroxyl groups represented by Formula (I-1). 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     In the formula, 
     R 11  and R 12  each independently represent a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group. 
     R 13  represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group or is a single bond or an alkylene group, and is bonded to L or Ar in the formula to form a ring. 
     L represents a single bond or a divalent linking group. 
     Ar represents an aromatic ring. 
     n represents an integer of 2 or more. 
     Examples of the alkyl group represented by R 11 , R 12 , and R 13  in Formula (I-1) include an alkyl group having 20 or less carbon atoms such as a methyl group, an ethyl group, a propyl group, an isopropyl group, an n-butyl group, a sec-butyl group, a hexyl group, a 2-ethylhexyl group, an octyl group, and a dodecyl group. In one aspect, the alkyl group represented by R 11 , R 12 , and R 13  is preferably an alkyl group having 8 or less carbon atoms and more preferably an alkyl group having 3 or less carbon atoms. 
     An alkyl group represented by R 11 , R 12 , and R 13  may have a substituent. Examples of the preferable substituent include a cycloalkyl group, an aryl group, an amino group, an amide group, a ureido group, a urethane group, a hydroxyl group, a carboxyl group, a halogen atom, an alkoxy group, a thioether group, an acyl group, an acyloxy group, an alkoxycarbonyl group, a cyano group, and a nitro group, and it is preferable that the number of carbon atoms of the substituent is 8 or less. 
     The divalent linking group represented by L includes, for example, an ester bond, —CONR 64  (R 64  represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group)-, an alkylene group, or a combination of two or more selected from any of these. 
     The alkyl group of R 64  in —CONR 64 — (R 64  represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group) is preferably an alkyl group having 20 or less carbon atoms such as a methyl group, an ethyl group, a propyl group, an isopropyl group, an n-butyl group, a sec-butyl group, a hexyl group, a 2-ethylhexyl group, an octyl group, and a dodecyl group, which may have a substituent, and more preferably an alkyl group having 8 or less carbon atoms. In one aspect, —CONR 64 — is preferably —CONH—. 
     Examples of the alkylene group represented by L include an alkylene group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms such as a methylene group, an ethylene group, a propylene group, a butylene group, a hexylene group, and an octylene group. The alkylene group may have a substituent. 
     In one aspect of the present invention, L is preferably a single bond, an ester bond, or —CONH—, more preferably a single bond or an ester bond, and particularly preferably a single bond. 
     Examples of the aromatic ring group represented by Ar include an aromatic hydrocarbon ring having 6 to 18 carbon atoms such as a benzene ring, a naphthalene ring, an anthracene ring, a fluorene ring, and a phenanthrene ring and an aromatic ring heterocyclic ring including a heterocyclic ring such as a thiophene ring, a furan ring, a pyrrole ring, a benzothiophene ring, a benzofuran ring, a benzopyrrole ring, a triazine ring, an imidazole ring, a benzimidazole ring, a triazole ring, a thiadiazole ring, or a thiazole ring. Among these, a benzene ring and a naphthalene ring are preferable in view of resolution, and a benzene ring is most preferable. 
     These aromatic rings may have a substituent. Examples of the preferable substituent include specific examples of the alkyl group represented by R 11 , R 12 , and R 13 ; an alkoxy group such as a methoxy group, an ethoxy group, a hydroxyethoxy group, a propoxy group, a hydroxypropoxy group, and a butoxy group; and an aryl group such as a phenyl group. 
     n represents an integer of 2 or more, preferably represents an integer of 2 to 5, and more preferably represents 2 or 3. 
     The resin (A) may contain two or more kinds of the repeating units (a). 
     Specific examples of the repeating unit (a) are provided below, but the present invention is not limited to these. In the formula, R represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, and a represents 2 or 3. 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     In view of compatibility between the reactivity of the resin (A) and the diffusion suppressing performance of generated acid, the content (total content ratio in a case where two or more kinds thereof are contained) of the repeating unit (a) is preferably 5 to 60 mol %, more preferably 10 to 50 mol %, and even more preferably 20 to 40 mol % with respect to all repeating units in the resin (A). 
     —Repeating Unit (b)— 
     The repeating unit (b) is a repeating unit having an acid-decomposable group that a protective group including a monocyclic ring leaves due to an action of an acid so as to generate a polar group. 
     Compared with a protective group including a polycyclic structure or a protective group including a chain-like group, the protective group including a monocyclic ring can cause the high deprotection reactivity in the acid-decomposable group and the low diffusion of the generated acid to be compatible with each other. The protective group having a polycyclic structure causes a problem that the number of carbon atoms increases to become hydrophobic and sensitivity is lowered, and the protective group including a chain-like group causes a problem that Tg is lowered and diffusion of generated acid is promoted. By having a protective group including a monocyclic ring, in a case of being combined with the repeating unit (a) having two or more phenolic hydroxyl groups to be used, the superiority of the repeating unit (a) can be maximized, and a pattern excellent in resolution, EL, roughness characteristics and outgassing performance at a high level can be formed. 
     Here, a monocyclic ring included in a protective group included in the repeating unit (b) is an aliphatic ring and may include an unsaturated bond. In one aspect of the present invention, this monocyclic ring is preferably a monocyclic hydrocarbon group consisting solely of carbon atoms and hydrogen atoms. 
     In view of hydrophilicity, it is better that the number of carbon atoms forming a monocyclic ring is small. For example, the number of carbon atoms forming the monocyclic ring is preferably 5 to 10, more preferably 5 to 8, even more preferably 5 to 7. 
     The monocyclic ring may have a substituent, and the substituent may include an atom in addition to the carbon atom and the hydrogen atom. Examples of the substituent that may be included include an alkyl group (having 1 to 4 carbon atoms), a halogen atom, a hydroxyl group, an alkoxy group (having 1 to 4 carbon atoms), a carboxyl group, an alkoxycarbonyl group (having 2 to 6 carbon atoms), a cyano group, an amino group, a sulfonamide group, and an alkylamide group. 
     In the repeating unit (b), examples of the polar group generated by the leaving of the protective group including a monocyclic hydrocarbon group due to an action of an acid include a carboxyl group, a benzene carboxylic acid group, a phenolic hydroxyl group, and a hydroxyl group. In one aspect of the present invention, it is preferable that the polar group is a carboxyl group. 
     Here, it is preferable that the polar group is a carboxyl group, in view of compatibility between high reactivity of the resin (A) and the diffusion suppressing performance of generated acid. For example, in a case where the polar group is a carboxyl group, particularly, Tg after the exposure is high and the diffusion suppression of an acid is excellent compared with a case where the polar group is a phenolic hydroxyl group or a hydroxyl group. Also in a case of being combined with a protective group, the acid strength of the polar group is higher, and thus deprotection reactivity is excellent. 
     According to the embodiment of the present invention, the repeating unit (b) is preferably a repeating unit represented by Formula (pA).

     The resin (A) can be synthesized by a general method (for example, radical polymerization). Examples of the general synthesis method include a batch polymerization method in which polymerization is performed by dissolving a monomer species and an initiator in a solvent and heating and a dropwise addition polymerization method in which a solution of a monomer species and an initiator is added dropwise to the heated solvent over 1 to 10 hours.

     Examples of the reaction solvent include ethers such as tetrahydrofuran, 1,4-dioxane, and diisopropyl ether, ketones such as methyl ethyl ketone and methyl isobutyl ketone, an ester solvent such as ethyl acetate, an amide solvent such as dimethylformamide and dimethylacetamide, and a solvent for dissolving the resist composition according to the present invention described below such as propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, propylene glycol monomethyl ether, and cyclohexanone. It is preferable to perform polymerization using the same solvent as the solvent used for the resist composition of the present invention. As a result, generation of particles during storage can be suppressed. 
     The polymerization reaction is preferably performed in an inert gas atmosphere such as nitrogen or argon. Polymerization is initiated by using a commercially available radical initiator (azo-based initiator, peroxide, and the like) as a polymerization initiator.

     According to another particularly preferable aspect, the weight-average molecular weight of the resin (A) is 3,000 9,500, as a value in terms of polystyrene by a GPC method. By setting the weight-average molecular weight to be 3,000 to 9,500, particularly, a resist residue (hereinafter also referred to as “scum”) is suppressed, and a better pattern can be formed. 
     The dispersion degree (molecular weight distribution) is generally in the range of 1 to 5, preferably in the range of 1 to 3, more preferably in the range of 1.2 to 3.0, and particularly preferably in the range of 1.2 to 2.0.

     In a case where the photoacid generator is in an aspect of being incorporated into a part of the polymer, the acid generator may be incorporated into a part of the resin (A) or may be incorporated into a resin different from the resin (A). 
     For the purpose of adjusting the pattern cross-sectional shape, the number of fluorine atoms included in the acid generator is appropriately adjusted. By adjusting the fluorine atom, the uneven distribution properties of the surface of the acid generator in the resist film can be controlled. As the number of the fluorine atoms included in the acid generator is large, the acid generator is distributed more unevenly on the surface. 
     According to the present invention, the photoacid generator is preferably in an aspect of a low molecular weight compound. 
     The photoacid generator is not particularly limited as long as it is a well-known photoacid generator but is preferably a compound that generates at least one of organic acid, for example, sulfonic acid, bis(alkylsulfonyl) imide, or tris(alkylsulfonyl) methide, due to the irradiation with actinic ray or radiation, preferably electron beams or extreme ultraviolet rays.

     &lt;Hydrophobic Resin&gt; 
     The actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive resin composition according to the embodiment of the present invention may further contain a hydrophobic resin different from the resin (A). 
     It is preferable that the hydrophobic resin is designed to be unevenly distributed on the surface of the resist film, but, differently from the surfactant, a hydrophilic group does not need to be included in the molecule and may not contribute to the even mixture of the polar/non-polar materials. 
     Examples of the effect of adding the hydrophobic resin include control a static/dynamic contact angle of a resist film surface against water, and the suppression of outgassing. 
     In view of the uneven distribution on the film surface, the hydrophobic resin preferably includes any one or more kinds of a “fluorine atom”, a “silicon atom”, or a “CH 3  partial structure contained in a side chain portion of the resin” and more preferably includes two or more kinds thereof. It is preferable that the hydrophobic resin contains a hydrocarbon group having 5 or more carbon atoms. These groups may be present in the main chain of the resin or may be substituted on the side chain. 
     In a case where the hydrophobic resin includes a fluorine atom and/or a silicon atom, the fluorine atom and/or the silicon atom in the hydrophobic resin may be included in the main chain of the resin and may be included in the side chain. 
     In the case where the hydrophobic resin includes a fluorine atom, the partial structure having a fluorine atom is preferably a resin having an alkyl group having a fluorine atom, a cycloalkyl group having a fluorine atom, or an aryl group having a fluorine atom. 
     The alkyl group (preferably having 1 to 10 carbon atoms and more preferably having 1 to 4 carbon atoms) having a fluorine atom is a linear or branched alkyl group in which at least one hydrogen atom is substituted with a fluorine atom and may further have a substituent other than the fluorine atom.

     Examples of the aryl group having a fluorine atom include an aryl group in which at least one hydrogen atom of an aryl group such as a phenyl group or a naphthyl group is substituted with a fluorine atom, and the aryl group may further have a substituent in addition to the fluorine atom. 
     Examples of the repeating units having a fluorine atom or a silicon atom include repeating units exemplified in paragraph 0519 of US2012/0251948A1. 
     As described above, it is also preferable that the hydrophobic resin includes a CH 3  partial structure in the side chain moiety. 
     Here, the CH 3  partial structure of the side chain moiety in the hydrophobic resin includes the CH 3  partial structure included in the ethyl group, the propyl group, or the like. 
     Meanwhile, a methyl group directly bonded to the main chain of the hydrophobic resin (for example, an α-methyl group of a repeating unit having a methacrylic acid structure) is not included in the CH 3  partial structure in the present invention because contribution to uneven distribution on the surface of the hydrophobic resin is small due to the influence of the main chain.

In a case where the surfactant is contained, in a case where an exposure light source having a wavelength of 250 nm or lower, particularly 220 nm or lower is used, a pattern having excellent adhesiveness and fewer development defects can be formed at favorable sensitivity and resolutions. 
     As the surfactant, it is particularly preferable to use a fluorine-based and/or silicon-based surfactant. 
     Examples of the fluorine-based and/or silicon-based surfactants include surfactants disclosed in paragraph [0276] of US2008/0248425A.

Polysiloxane polymer KP-341 (manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd.) can also be used as the silicon-based surfactant. 
     In addition to the well-known surfactants as described above, the surfactant is synthesized with a fluoroaliphatic compound manufactured by a telomerization method (also referred to as a telomer method) or an oligomerization method (also referred to as an oligomer method). Specifically, a polymer comprising a fluoroaliphatic group derived from the fluoroaliphatic compound may be used as a surfactant. This fluoroaliphatic compound can be synthesized, for example, by the method described in JP2002-090991A. 
     The surfactants other than the fluorine-based and/or silicon-based surfactants disclosed in [0280] of US2008/0248425A may be used.

     The actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive resin composition may further include a dissolution inhibiting compound. Here, the “dissolution inhibiting compound” is a compound having a molecular weight of 3,000 or less, which is decomposed by the action of an acid so as to reduce solubility thereof in an organic developer. 
     The embodiment of the pattern forming method according to the embodiment of the present invention is described below. 
     [Pattern Forming Method] 
     The pattern forming method according to the embodiment of the present invention includes: 
     an actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film forming step of forming an actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film including an actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive resin composition according to the embodiment of the present invention; 
     an exposure step of exposing the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film; and 
     a development step of developing the exposed actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film with a developer. 
     &lt;Actinic Ray-Sensitive or Radiation-Sensitive Film Forming Step&gt; 
     A step of forming an actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film is a step of forming the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film (typically, resist film) with the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive resin composition, and, for example, the step can be performed by the following method. 
     In order to form an actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film on a substrate with the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive resin composition, the respective components are dissolved in a solvent, the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive resin composition is prepared, filter filtration is performed, if necessary, and the substrate is coated. It is preferable that the filter is a filter made of polytetrafluoroethylene, polyethylene, or nylon which has a pore size of 0.1 μm or lower, more preferably 0.05 μm or lower, and even more preferably 0.03 μm or lower. 
     The actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive resin composition is applied by a suitable coating method such as spinner onto a substrate (for example, silicon and silicon dioxide coating) as used in the manufacture of integrated circuit elements. Thereafter, the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive resin composition is dried so as to form the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film. If necessary, various underlying films (inorganic film, organic film, and antireflection film) may be formed on an underlayer the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film. 
     As the drying method, a method of heating and drying is generally used. The heating can be performed by means included in general exposing and developing machines and may be performed by using a hot plate or the like. The heating temperature is preferably 80° C. to 150° C., more preferably 80° C. to 140° C., and even more preferably 80° C. to 130° C. The heating time is preferably 30 to 1,000 seconds, more preferably 60 to 800 seconds, and more preferably 60 to 600 seconds. 
     The film thickness of the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film is generally 200 nm or less and preferably 100 nm or less. 
     For example, in order to resolve a 1:1 line and space pattern having a line width of 20 nm or less, the film thickness of the formed actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film is preferably 50 nm or less. In a case where the film thickness is 50 nm or less, pattern collapse is less likely to occur in a case where a development step described below is applied, and thus the more excellent resolution performance can be obtained. 
     The range of the film thickness is more preferably in the range of 15 nm to 45 nm. In a case where the film thickness is 15 nm or more, sufficient etching resistance can be obtained. The range of the film thickness is more preferably 15 nm to 40 nm. In a case where the film thickness is within this range, it is possible to simultaneously satisfy etching resistance and better resolution performance. 
     In the pattern forming method according to the embodiment of the present invention, an upper layer film (topcoat) may be formed on the upper layer of the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film. It is preferable that the topcoat is not mixed with the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film and can be evenly applied to an upper layer of the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film. 
     &lt;Composition for Forming Upper Layer Film&gt; 
     A composition (composition for forming topcoat) for forming an upper layer film is described below. 
     It is preferable that the topcoat is not mixed with the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film and evenly applied to the upper layer of the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film. The thickness of the topcoat is preferably 10 to 200 nm, more preferably 20 to 100 nm, and particularly preferably 40 to 80 nm. 
     The topcoat is not particularly limited, and a topcoat well-known in the related art can be formed by the well-known method in the related art. For example, the topcoat can be formed based on the disclosure of paragraphs &lt;0072&gt; to &lt;0082&gt; of JP2014-059543A. 
     &lt;Exposure Step&gt; 
     The exposure step is a step of exposing the resist film and can be performed, for example, by the following method. 
     The actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film formed as above is irradiated with an actinic ray or radiation through a predetermined mask. In electron beam irradiation, drawing (direct drawing) without a mask is common. 
     The actinic ray or radiation is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include a KrF excimer laser, an ArF excimer laser, an extreme ultraviolet ray (EUV), and an electron beam (EB), an extreme ultraviolet ray or an electron beam is particularly preferable. The exposure may be immersion exposure. 
     &lt;Baking&gt; 
     In the pattern forming method according to the embodiment of the present invention, it is preferable to perform baking (Post Exposure Bake: PEB) after the exposure and before the development is performed. The reaction of the exposed portion is promoted by baking, and sensitivity or a pattern shape becomes more satisfactory. 
     The heating temperature is preferably from 80° C. to 150° C., more preferably 80° C. to 140° C., and even more preferably from 80° C. to 130° C. 
     The heating time is preferably 30 to 1,000 seconds, more preferably 60 to 800 seconds, and more preferably 60 to 600 seconds. 
     The heating can be performed by means included in general exposing and developing machines and may be performed by using a hot plate or the like. 
     &lt;Development Step&gt; 
     A development step is a step of developing the exposed actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film with a developer. 
     As the developing method, for example, a method of immersing a substrate in a tank filled with a developer for a predetermined period of time (dipping method), a developing method by raising the developer on the surface of a substrate by surface tension and leaving the developer to stand for a certain period of time (puddle method), a method of spraying a developer to the surface of a substrate (spraying method), and a method of continuously jetting a developer while scanning a developer jetting nozzle at a constant speed on a substrate spinning at a constant speed (dynamic dispensing method) can be applied. 
     After the step of developing, a step of stopping development may be carried out while substituting with another solvent. 
     The development time is not particularly limited as long as the resin in the exposed portion or the unexposed portion is sufficiently dissolved for the period of time, and the development time is usually 10 to 300 seconds and preferably 10 to 120 seconds. 
     The temperature of the developer is preferably 0° C. to 50° C. and more preferably 15° C. to 35° C. 
     (Developer) 
     The developer may be an alkali developer and may be a developer (organic developer) that contains an organic solvent. 
     —Alkali Developer— 
     As the alkaline developer, for example, an alkali aqueous solution of inorganic alkalis such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, sodium silicate, sodium metasilicate, and ammonia water, primary amines such as ethylamine and n-propylamine, secondary amines such as diethylamine and di-n-butylamine, tertiary amines such as triethylamine and methyl diethylamine, alcohol amines such as dimethylethanolamine and triethanol amine, tetraalkyl ammonium hydroxide such as tetramethylammonium hydroxide, tetraethylammonium hydroxide, tetrapropylammonium hydroxide, tetrabutylammonium hydroxide, tetrapentylammonium hydroxide, tetrahexylammonium hydroxide, tetraoctylammonium hydroxide, ethyl trimethyl ammonium hydroxide, butyl trimethyl ammonium hydroxide, methyl triamyl ammonium hydroxide, and dibutyl dipentyl ammonium hydroxide, quaternary ammonium salt such as dimethylbis(2-hydroxyethyl) ammonium hydroxide, trimethylphenylammonium hydroxide, trimethylbenzylammonium hydroxide, and triethylbenzylammonium hydroxide, and cyclic amines such as pyrrole and piperidine can be used. 
     Alcohols and a surfactant may be added to the alkali aqueous solution in an appropriate amount for use. 
     The alkali concentration of the alkali developer is generally 0.1 to 20 mass %. 
     pH of the alkali developer is generally 10.0 to 15.0. 
     As the alkali developer, a 2.38 mass % aqueous solution of tetramethylammonium hydroxide is particularly desirable. 
     —Organic Developer— 
     Next, the organic solvent included in the organic developer is described. 
     The vapor pressure of the organic solvent (vapor pressure as a whole in a case of a mixed solvent) at 20° C. is preferably 5 kPa or less, more preferably 3 kPa or less, and particularly preferably 2 kPa or less. In a case where the vapor pressure of the organic solvent is 5 kPa or lower, the evaporation of the developer on the substrate or in a development cup is suppressed, and thus the temperature uniformity in the wafer surface increases, and as a result, the dimension uniformity in the wafer surface improves. 
     Various organic solvents are widely used as the organic solvent used in the organic developer, and for example, a solvent such as an ester-based solvent, a ketone-based solvent, an alcohol-based solvent, an amide-based solvent, an ether-based solvent, and a hydrocarbon-based solvent can be used. 
     Specific examples of these organic solvents are the same as those described above as the solvent (2) contained in the treatment liquid. 
     With respect to the organic solvent included in the organic developer, compared with a case where EUV light and EB is used in the exposure step, in view of suppressing the swelling of the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film, the number of carbon atoms is 7 or more (preferably 7 to 14, more preferably 7 to 12, and even more preferably 7 to 10), and it is preferable to use an ester-based solvent having 2 or less hetero atoms. 
     The hetero atom of the ester-based solvent is an atom in addition to the carbon atom and the hydrogen atom, and examples thereof include an oxygen atom, a nitrogen atom, and a sulfur atom. The number of hetero atoms is preferably 2 or less. 
     Preferable examples of the ester-based solvent having 7 or more carbon atoms and 2 or less hetero atoms include amyl acetate, isoamyl acetate, 2-methylbutyl acetate, 1-methylbutyl acetate, hexyl acetate, pentyl propionate, hexyl propionate, butyl propionate, isobutyl isobutyrate, heptyl propionate, and butyl butanoate, and it is particularly preferable to use isoamyl acetate. 
     With respect to the organic solvent included in the organic developer, in a case where EUV light and EB are used in the above exposure step, instead of an ester-based solvent having 7 or more carbon atoms and 2 or less hetero atoms, a mixed solvent of the ester-based solvent and the hydrocarbon solvent or a mixed solvent of the ketone-based solvent and the hydrocarbon solvent may be used. Also in this case, it is effective for suppressing the swelling of the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film. 
     In a case where an ester-based solvent and a hydrocarbon-based solvent are used in combination, it is preferable to use isoamyl acetate as the ester-based solvent. As the hydrocarbon-based solvent, in view of adjusting the solubility of actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film, it is preferable to use a saturated hydrocarbon solvent (for example, octane, nonane, decane, dodecane, undecane, or hexadecane). 
     In a case where a ketone-based solvent and a hydrocarbon-based solvent are used in combination, it is preferable to use 2-heptanone as a ketone-based solvent. As the hydrocarbon-based solvent, in view of adjusting the solubility of the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film, it is preferable to use a saturated hydrocarbon solvent (for example, octane, nonane, decane, dodecane, undecane, or hexadecane). 
     In the case of using the above mixed solvent, the content of the hydrocarbon-based solvent is not particularly limited, since the content depends on the solvent solubility of the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film, and the content of the hydrocarbon-based solvent is appropriately adjusted to determine the necessary amount. 
     The plurality of kinds of the organic solvents may be mixed or may be mixed with a solvent other than the above or water. In order to sufficiently obtain the effect of the present invention, the moisture content of the developer as a whole is preferably less than 10 mass %, and it is more preferable that substantially no moisture is contained. The concentration of the organic solvent (sum in the case of a plurality of organic solvents are mixed) in the developer is preferably 50 mass % or more, more preferably 50 to 100 mass %, even more preferably 85 to 100 mass %, still even more preferably 90 to 100 mass %, and particularly preferably 95 to 100 mass %. A case of substantially consisting only of an organic solvent is most preferable. The case of substantially consisting only of an organic solvent includes the case of containing a minute amount of a surfactant, an antioxidant, a stabilizer, and an antifoaming agent. 
     The developer preferably contains an antioxidant. As a result, the temporal generation of the oxidizing agent can be suppressed, and the content of the oxidizing agent can be further reduced. As the antioxidant, well-known antioxidants can be used, but in a case where an antioxidant is used for the semiconductor applications, an amine-based antioxidant and a phenol-based antioxidant are preferably used. 
     The content of the antioxidant is not particularly limited, but is preferably 0.0001 to 1 mass %, more preferably 0.0001 to 0.1 mass %, and still more preferably 0.0001 to 0.01 mass % with respect to the total mass of the developer. In a case where the content is 0.0001 mass % or more, a more excellent antioxidant effect can be obtained, and in a case where the content is 1 mass % or less, there is a tendency in that the development residues can be suppressed. 
     The developer may contain a basic compound, and specifically, examples thereof include a compound which is the same as the basic compound which may be contained in a resist composition. 
     The developer may contain a surfactant. In a case where the developer contains a surfactant, the wettability to the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film is improved, and the development more effectively proceeds. 
     As the surfactant, the same surfactant as the surfactant that can be contained in the resist composition can be used. 
     In a case where the developer contains a surfactant, the content of the surfactant is preferably 0.001 to 5 mass %, more preferably 0.005 to 2 mass %, and more preferably 0.01 to 0.5 mass % with respect to the total mass of the developer. 
     As the developing method, for example, a method of immersing a substrate in a tank filled with a developer for a predetermined period of time (dipping method), a developing method by raising the developer on the surface of a substrate by surface tension and leaving the developer to stand for a certain period of time (puddle method), a method of spraying a developer to the surface of a substrate (spraying method), and a method of continuously jetting a developer while scanning a developer jetting nozzle at a constant speed on a substrate spinning at a constant speed (dynamic dispensing method) can be applied. 
     After the development step, a step of stopping development may be performed while the solvent is substituted with another solvent. 
     The development time is not particularly limited, and is generally 10 to 300 seconds and preferably 20 to 120 seconds. 
     The temperature of the developer is preferably 0° C. to 50° C. and more preferably 15° C. to 35° C. 
     As the developer used in the development step, both of the development using a developer containing an organic solvent and the development with an alkali developer may be performed (so-called double development may be performed). 
     In pattern forming method according to the embodiment of the present invention, the developer may include a treatment liquid of the present invention, and in this case, the treatment liquid is preferably a developer. 
     &lt;Rinsing Step&gt; 
     The pattern forming method according to the embodiment of the present invention may include a rinsing step after a development step. 
     In the rinsing step, the wafer that has been developed is subjected to a washing treatment by using a rinsing solution. 
     The method of washing treatment is not particularly limited, and for example, a method of continuously jetting the rinsing solution to the substrate spinning at a constant speed (spin jetting method), a method of immersing a substrate in a tank filled with the rinsing solution for a predetermined period of time (dipping method), a method of spraying a rinsing solution to the surface of a substrate (spraying method), and the like can be applied. Among these, it is preferable that a washing treatment is performed by a spin jetting method, and after washing, the substrate is spun at the rotation speed of 2,000 rpm to 4,000 rpm, so as to remove the rinsing solution from the substrate. 
     The rinsing time is not particularly limited, but is preferably 10 seconds to 300 seconds, more preferably 10 seconds to 180 seconds, and most preferably 20 seconds to 120 seconds. 
     The temperature of the rinsing solution is preferably 0° C. to 50° C. and more preferably 15° C. to 35° C. 
     After the developing treatment or the rinsing treatment, a treatment of removing the developer or the rinsing solution deposited to the pattern by a supercritical fluid can be performed. 
     After the developing treatment, a rinsing treatment, or a treatment by a supercritical fluid, a heat treatment can be performed in order to remove the solvent remaining in the pattern. The heating temperature is not particularly limited as long as a good resist pattern can be obtained, and is generally 40° C. to 160° C. The heating temperature is preferably 50° C. to 150° C. and most preferably 50° C. to 110° C. The heating time is not particularly limited as long as a good resist pattern can be obtained, but it is usually 15 to 300 seconds and preferably 15 to 180 seconds. 
     (Rinsing Solution) 
     As the rinsing solution used in the rinsing treatment after the step of performing development with an alkali developer, pure water can be used, and an appropriate amount of a surfactant can be added to be used. 
     As the rinsing solution used in a rinsing treatment performed after the development step using an organic developer, it is preferable to use a rinsing solution including an organic solvent, and as the organic solvent, at least one organic solvent selected from the group consisting of a hydrocarbon-based solvent, a ketone-based solvent, an ester-based solvent an alcohol-based solvent, an amide-based solvent, and an ether-based solvent is preferable. 
     The organic solvent contained in the rinsing solution is preferably at least one selected from a hydrocarbon-based solvent, an ether-based solvent, or a ketone-based solvent and more preferably is at least one selected from a hydrocarbon-based solvent or an ether-based solvent. 
     As the organic solvent included in the rinsing solution, an ether-based solvent can also be appropriately used. 
     Specific examples of these organic solvents are the same as those described above for the organic solvent contained in the developer. 
     The vapor pressure of the rinsing solution at 20° C. is preferably 0.05 kPa to 5 kPa, more preferably 0.1 kPa to 5 kPa, and most preferably 0.12 kPa to 3 kPa. In a case where the rinsing solution is a mixed solvent of a plurality of solvents, the vapor pressure as a whole is preferably within the above range. By setting the vapor pressure of the rinsing solution to 0.05 kPa to 5 kPa, temperature uniformity in the wafer surface is improved, swelling due to permeation of the rinsing solution is suppressed, dimensional uniformity in the wafer surface becomes satisfactory. 
     The organic solvent including the rinsing solution may be used singly or two or more kinds thereof may be used. In a case where two or more kinds thereof are included, examples thereof include a mixed solvent of undecane and diisobutyl ketone. 
     The rinsing solution may contain a surfactant. By causing the rinsing solution to contain the surfactant, there is a tendency in that the wettability to the resist film is improved, the rinse properties are improved, and the generation of foreign matter is suppressed. 
     As the surfactant, the same surfactant as used in the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive resin composition described below can be used. 
     In a case where the rinsing solution contains a surfactant, the content of the surfactant is preferably 0.001 to 5 mass %, more preferably 0.005 to 2 mass %, and more preferably 0.01 to 0.5 mass % with respect to the total mass of the rinsing solution. 
     The rinsing solution may contain an antioxidant. The antioxidant that may be contained in the rinsing solution is the same as the antioxidant that may be contained in the developer. 
     In a case where the rinsing solution contains an antioxidant, the content of the antioxidant is not particularly limited, but is preferably 0.0001 to 1 mass %, more preferably 0.0001 to 0.1 mass %, and even more preferably 0.0001 to 0.01 mass % with respect to the total mass of the rinsing solution. 
     After the step of performing development with a developer including an organic solvent, a step of performing washing with a rinsing solution may be included, but in view of throughput (productivity), a step of performing washing with a rinsing solution may not be included. 
     As a treatment method not having a step of performing washing with a rinsing solution, for example, the description in [0014] to [0086] of JP2015-216403A can be referred to, and this content thereof is incorporated into the present specification. 
     As the rinsing solution, methyl isobutyl carbinol (MIBC) and a rinsing solution using the same liquid as the developer (particularly, butyl acetate) is also preferable. 
     &lt;Storage Container&gt; 
     As the organic solvent (also referred to as an organic treatment liquid) that can be used in the treatment liquid such as a developer and a rinsing solution, it is preferable to use an organic solvent stored in a storage container of an organic treatment liquid for patterning a chemically amplified actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film which has a storage portion. For example, this storage container is preferably a storage container of an organic treatment liquid for patterning the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film in which an inner wall of a storage portion which is in contact with the organic treatment liquid is formed of a resin different from any of a polyethylene resin, a polypropylene resin, and a polyethylene-polypropylene resin or metal subjected to an anti-corrosion/metal elution prevention treatment. An organic solvent to be used as an organic treatment liquid for patterning the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film is stored in the storage portion of the storage container, and in a case of patterning of the actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive film, a liquid discharged from the storage portion can be used. 
     In the case where the storage container further has a seal portion for tightly closing the storage portion, it is preferable that the seal portion is also formed of a resin different from the one or more resins selected from the group consisting of a polyethylene resin, a polypropylene resin, and a polyethylene-polypropylene resin or metal subjected to anti-corrosion/metal elution prevention treatments. 
     Here, the seal portion means a member that can shield the storage portion from the outside air, and suitable examples thereof include packing and an O ring. 
     The resin that is different from the one or more resins selected from the group consisting of a polyethylene resin, a polypropylene resin, and a polyethylene-polypropylene resin is preferably a perfluoro resin. 
     Examples of the perfluoro resin include a tetrafluoroethylene resin (PTFE), an ethylene tetrafluoride/perfluoroalkyl vinyl ether copolymer resin (PFA), an ethylene tetrafluoride-hexafluoropropylene copolymer resin (FEP), an ethylene tetrafluoride-ethylene copolymer resin (ETFE), a trifluorochloroethylene-ethylene copolymer resin (ECTFE), a vinylidene fluoride resin (PVDF), a trifluorochloroethylene copolymer resin (PCTFE), and a fluorinated vinyl resin (PVF). 
     Particularly preferable examples of the perfluoro resin include a tetrafluoroethylene resin, an ethylene tetrafluoride/perfluoroalkyl vinyl ether copolymer resin, and an ethylene tetrafluoride-hexafluoropropylene copolymer resin. 
     Examples of the metals in the metal subjected to anti-corrosion/metal elution prevention treatments include carbon steel, alloy steel, nickel-chrome steel, nickel-chrome-molybdenum steel, chrome steel, chrome-molybdenum steel, and manganese steel. 
     It is preferable to apply a coating technique, as the anti-corrosion/metal elution prevention treatments. 
     The coating technique is classified roughly into three parts: metal coating (various kinds of plating), inorganic coating (various chemical conversion treatments, glass, concrete, ceramics, and the like), and organic coating (anti-corrosion oil, paint, rubber, and plastics). 
     As a preferable coating technique, surface treatments with anti-corrosion oil, a rust preventing agent, a corrosion inhibitor, a chelate compound, strippable plastic, and a lining agent are used. 
     Among them, a corrosion inhibitor such as various chromic acid salts, a nitric acid salt, a silicic acid salt, phosphoric acid salt, carboxylic acids such as oleic acid, dimer acid, and naphthenic acid, carboxylic acid metal soap, a sulfonic acid salt, an amine salt, and esters (glycerin ester and phosphoric acid ester of higher fatty acid), a chelate compound such as ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid, gluconic acid, nitrilotriacetic acid, hydroxyethyl ethylenediamine triacetic acid, and diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid, and a fluororesin lining is preferable. A phosphoric acid salt treatment and fluororesin lining are particularly preferable. 
     Compared with a direct coating treatment, though corrosion is not directly prevented, it is preferable that the “pre-treatment” which is a step before the anti-corrosion treatment is performed is employed as a treatment method for extending the anti-corrosion period by a coating treatment. 
     As a specific example of the pre-treatment, treatments for removing various corrosion factors such as chloride or sulfate which exist on metal surfaces by washing or polishing are preferably used. 
     Specific examples of the storage container include the followings.

     Examples of the storage container that can be used in the present invention include containers disclosed in [0013] to [0030] of JP1999-021393A (JP-H11-021393A) and [0012] to [0024] of JP1998-045961A (JP-H10-045961A). 
     A conductive compound may be added to the organic treatment liquid in order to prevent chemical liquid piping and various parts (such as filters, o-rings, or tubes) due to subsequently occurring static electricity discharge which from being broken. The conductive compound is not particularly limited, but examples thereof include methanol. The addition amount is not particularly limited, and in view of maintaining preferable development characteristics, the addition amount is preferably 10 mass % or less and more preferably 5 mass % or less. With respect to the members of the chemical liquid piping, it is possible to use stainless steel (SUS) or various kinds of piping coated with polyethylene, polypropylene, and a fluororesin (such as polytetrafluoroethylene and perfluoroalkoxy resins) which are subjected to an antistatic treatment. In the same manner, polyethylene, polypropylene, and a fluororesin (such as polytetrafluorocethylene and perfluoroalkoxy resins) subjected to an antistatic treatment can also be used for filters and O-rings. 
     Generally, the developer and the rinsing solution are stored in a waste liquid tank through piping after use. In this case, in a case where a hydrocarbon-based solvent is used as the rinsing solution, in order to prevent the resist dissolved in the developer from precipitating and adhering to a rear surface of a wafer, a side surface of piping, or the like, a method of causing a solvent in which the resist dissolves to pass through piping may be used. Examples of the method of passing through the piping include a method of washing a rear surface of a side surface of a substrate after washing with a rinsing solution with a solvent which dissolves a resist and flowing the rinsing solution or a method of flowing a solvent which dissolves a resist through the piping without causing the solvent to come into contact with the resist. 
     The solvent that passes through the piping is not particularly limited, as long as the solvent can dissolve the resist, examples thereof include the organic solvents described above, and propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate (PGMEA), propylene glycol monoethyl ether acetate, propylene glycol monopropyl ether acetate, propylene glycol monobutyl ether acetate, propylene glycol monomethyl ether propionate, propylene glycol monoethyl ether propionate, ethylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate, ethylene glycol monoethyl ether acetate, propylene glycol monomethyl ether (PGME), propylene glycol monoethyl ether, propylene glycol monopropyl ether, propylene glycol monobutyl ether, ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, ethylene glycol monoethyl ether, 2-heptanone, ethyl lactate, 1-propanol, and acetone can be used. Among these, preferably, PGMEA, PGME, and cyclohexanone can be used. 
     A semiconductor fine circuit, an imprint mold structure, a photo mask, and the like can be manufactured by using the pattern that can be obtained by the pattern forming method according to the embodiment of the present invention as a mask and appropriately performing an etching treatment, ion implantation, and the like. 
     The pattern formed by the method can be used in the guide pattern formation (for example, see ACS Nano Vol. 4, No. 8, Pages 4815 to 4823) in Directed Self-Assembly (DSA). The pattern formed, for example, by the above method can be used as a core of a spacer process disclosed in JP1991-270227A (JP-H03-270227A) and JP2013-164509A. 
     A process in a case where an imprint mold is formed by the pattern forming method according to the embodiment of the present invention is disclosed, for example, in JP4109085B, JP2008-162101A, and “Nanoimprint fundamentals and technology development—application development—substrate technology of nanoimprint and the latest technology development-edited by. Yoshihiko Hirai (Frontier Publishing)”. 
     A photo mask manufactured by using the pattern forming method according to the embodiment of the present invention may be a light transmission type mask used in ArF excimer laser and the like or may be a light reflection type mask used in reflection type lithography in which EUV light is used as a light source. 
     The present invention also relates to a method of manufacturing an electronic device including the pattern forming method according to the embodiment of the present invention. 
     The electronic device manufactured by the method of manufacturing the electronic device according to the embodiment of the present invention can be appropriately mounted on electric or electronic apparatuses (household electric devices, office appliance (OA)-media-related apparatuses, optical apparatuses, and telecommunication apparatuses). 
     EXAMPLES 
     Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to examples, but the present invention is not limited thereto. 
     &lt;Synthesis of Resin (A)&gt; 
     Synthesis Example 1: Synthesis of Resin (A-19) 
     4.9 g of a monomer (1), 6.7 g of a monomer (2), 9.1 g of a monomer (3), and 0.50 g of a polymerization initiator V-601 (manufactured by Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.) were dissolved in 76.1 g of cyclohexanone. 41.0 g of cyclohexanone was placed in a reaction vessel and added dropwise to a system at 85° C. in a nitrogen gas atmosphere over four hours. The reaction solution was heated and stirred for two hours and then allowed to cool to room temperature. The reaction solution was added dropwise to 1377 g of a mixed solution of n-heptane and ethyl acetate (n-heptane/ethyl acetate=9/1 (mass ratio)) to precipitate the polymer, and filtration was performed. The filtered solid was washed with 413 g of a mixed solution of n-heptane and ethyl acetate (n-heptane/ethyl acetate=9/1 (mass ratio)). Thereafter, the washed solid was dried under reduced pressure so as to obtain 12.4 g of a resin (A-19). The weight-average molecular weight by GPC was 14,300, and the molecular weight dispersion degree (Mw/Mn) was 1.48.  1 H-NMR (DMSO-d6: ppm) δ: 8.75-8.39, 6.83-5.95, 4.59-3.66, 3.61-2.88, 2.64-0.18 (all peaks were broad) 
     
       
         
         
             
             
         
       
     
     The weight-average molecular weight (Mw: in terms of polystyrene), the number-average molecular weight (Mn: in terms of polystyrene), and a dispersion degree (Mw/Mn) of the obtained resin (A-19) were calculated by the measurement of GPC (carrier tetrahydrofuran (THF)). In the GPC, TSK gel Multipore HXL-M (manufactured by Tosoh Corporation, 7.8 mm ID×30.0 cm) was used as a column by using HLC-8120 (manufactured by Tosoh Corporation). In addition, the compositional ratio (molar ratio) was calculated by  1 H-NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) and  13 C-NMR measurement. 
     The same operation as in Synthesis Example 1 was performed so as to synthesize the resins A-1 to A-33 presented in the following table as the resin (A).

     &lt;Formation of Line and Space Pattern/EUV Exposure&gt; 
     A silicon wafer was coated with an organic antireflection film ARC29SR (manufactured by Brewer Science, Inc.) and baked at 205° C. for 60 seconds, so as to form an antireflection film having a film thickness of 86 nm, coating with the resist composition presented in Table 2 was performed thereon, and baking was performed at 120° C. for 60 seconds so as to form a resist film having a film thickness of 40 nm. 
     An EUV exposure device (Micro Exposure Tool manufactured by Exitech Corporation, NA 0.3, Quadrupole, outer sigma 0.68, inner sigma 0.36) was used, and an exposure mask (mask having line/space=1/1) was used, so as to perform pattern exposure. After the pattern exposure was performed, baking (PEB) was performed on a hot plate at 120° C. for 60 seconds, the developer presented in Table 3 was puddled, development was performed for 30 seconds, and rinsing was performed with a rinsing solution presented in the same table. Subsequently, the wafer was spun at a rotation speed of 2,000 rpm for 30 seconds, and then a 1:1 line and space pattern with a line width of 18 nm to 30 nm was obtained. 
     [Evaluation of Resist Pattern/EUV Exposure] 
     Performance evaluation of the resist pattern was performed with a scanning electron microscope (S-9380 II manufactured by Hitachi, Ltd.). 
     &lt;Resolution&gt; 
     Critical resolution (minimum line width in which separating and resolving are performed without collapse) at the optimum exposure amount (Eopt) in the obtained 1:1 line and space pattern with a line width of 16 nm to 30 nm was set as the resolution (nm). As the value is smaller, the resolution is excellent and satisfactory. 
     &lt;Line Width Roughness (LWR)&gt; 
     With respect to the line width roughness, the line width was measured for any 50 points in the longitudinal direction of 0.5 m in the line and space pattern (line:space=1:1) with a line width of 24 nm in the Eopt, the standard deviation thereof was calculated, so as to calculate 3 σ (nm). As the value is smaller, the performance is better. 
     &lt;EL Performance&gt; 
     With respect to EL, the line width of a line and space pattern with a pitch of 48 nm was measured and was calculated by the following expression. As the value is greater, the performance is better. 
       EL=(Sensitivity at which line width become 26.4 nm (line width that satisfies 1:1+10%)−sensitivity at which line width become 21.6 nm (line width that satisfies 1:1−10%))/sensitivity at which line width become 24 nm (line width that satisfies 1:1)×100(%)
 
     &lt;Outgassing Performance&gt; 
     Evaluation was performed with respect to a fluctuation (Z) in the film thickness in a case where a coating film with a film thickness of 60 nm was irradiated with the irradiation energy in a case where 1:1 line and space pattern with a line width of 20 nm was resolved. 
         Z =[(Film thickness before exposure)−(Film thickness after exposure)]
 
     Here, the film thickness after the exposure refers to a film thickness of the coating film immediately after the exposure, and is a film thickness of a resist film before the heating (PEB) step after the exposure. The smaller value of Z means that the generation of the outgassing becomes less and outgassing performance is excellent.

     &lt;Evaluation in Case of Using an Electron Beam (EB) Irradiation Device&gt; 
     A pattern was formed by the same method as described above, except that an electron beam irradiation device (JBX 6000 manufactured by JEOL Corporation, accelerating voltage 50 keV) was used instead of the EUV exposure device, and the exposure was performed by changing an irradiation amount such that a line pattern (length direction 0.2 mm, drawing number 40 lines) with a line width of 18 nm to 25 nm in increments of 2.5 nm was formed. With respect to the obtained pattern, the same evaluation as described above was performed. As a result, it was confirmed that excellent resolution, LWR, EL, and outgassing performance were able to be achieved even in a case where an electron beam (EB) irradiation device was used.
