Patent ID: 8198007

Claim:
A negative-working resist composition comprising a calix resorcinarene derivative (A) represented by the following chemical formula (1), an acid generator (B) which directly or indirectly generates an acid when exposed to an active energy ray having a wavelength of 248 nm or less, and a cross-linking agent (C): wherein R 1 is an aryl group, an aryl group having a substituent, a cycloalkyl group, a cycloalkyl group having a substituent, or a group represented by the following chemical formula (2): wherein Q is an aryl group, an aryl group having a substituent, a cycloalkyl group or a cycloalkyl group having a substituent; and m is an integer of 1 or 2; wherein each R 2 is independently an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, a non-acid-decomposable group which is not decomposed by the action of acid and comprises an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms and a substituent selected from the group consisting of a hydroxyl group, a halogen atom and a monovalent group represented by —OR a , or a hydrogen atom; the monovalent group represented by —OR a is bound to a carbon atom other than the first carbon atom of the alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, R a is an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms; four to eight of R 2 s contained in one molecule are non-acid-decomposable groups, and in the case where all R 2 s are non-acid-decomposable groups, R 1 is a group having a hydroxyl group; R 3 is an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms and a substituent, or a halogen atom; n is an integer of 0 to 2; and groups represented by the same symbol in the formula (1) may be the same or different.
