An appropriate temperature for mixing can be selected from 10 to 40° C. depending on the type of resin and the solubility of the resin in the solvent (E). An appropriate mixing time can be selected from 0.5 to 24 hours depending on the mixing temperature. The mixing means is also not particularly limited, and stirring and mixing can be used.
After mixing each component, it is preferable to filter it using a filter with a pore size of about 0.003 to 0.2 μm.

<Resist pattern manufacturing method>
The method for manufacturing a resist pattern of the present invention includes:

(2) drying the applied composition to form a composition layer;
(3) exposing the composition layer to light;
(4) a step of heating the composition layer after exposure; and (5) a step of developing the composition layer after heating.
The resist composition can be applied onto the substrate using a commonly used device such as a spin coater. Examples of the substrate include an inorganic substrate such as a silicon wafer, and an organic substrate on which a resist film or the like is formed on the surface. Before applying the resist composition, the substrate may be cleaned, or an antireflection film or the like may be formed on the substrate.
By drying the applied composition, the solvent is removed and a composition layer is formed. Drying is performed, for example, by evaporating the solvent using a heating device such as a hot plate (so-called pre-baking), or by using a pressure reduction device. The heating temperature is preferably 50 to 200°C, and the heating time is preferably 10 to 180 seconds. Further, the pressure during reduced pressure drying is preferably about 1 to 1.0×10 ⁵ Pa.
The obtained composition layer is usually exposed using an exposure machine. The exposure machine may be an immersion exposure machine. Exposure light sources include those that emit laser light in the ultraviolet region such as KrF excimer laser (wavelength 248 nm), ArF excimer laser (wavelength 193 nm), F ₂ excimer laser (wavelength 157 nm), solid state laser light source (YAG or semiconductor laser). etc.) that converts the wavelength of laser light and emits harmonic laser light in the far ultraviolet or vacuum ultraviolet range, and uses various methods such as those that emit electron beams and ultraviolet light (EUV). Can be done. Note that in this specification, irradiation with these radiations may be collectively referred to as "exposure." During exposure, the exposure is usually performed through a mask corresponding to the desired pattern. When the exposure light source is an electron beam, exposure may be performed by direct writing without using a mask.
The exposed composition layer is subjected to a heat treatment (so-called post-exposure bake) in order to promote the deprotection reaction in acid-labile groups. The heating temperature is usually about 50 to 200°C, preferably about 70 to 150°C. A chemical treatment (silylation) may be performed to adjust the hydrophilicity or hydrophobicity of the resin on the surface side of the heated composition. Furthermore, before development, the steps of applying a resist composition, drying, exposing, and heating may be repeated on the exposed composition layer.
The heated composition layer is usually developed using a developer using a developing device. Examples of the developing method include a dip method, a paddle method, a spray method, and a dynamic dispensing method. The development temperature is preferably, for example, 5 to 60°C, and the development time is, for example, preferably 5 to 300 seconds. By selecting the type of developer as described below, a positive resist pattern or a negative resist pattern can be manufactured.
When producing a positive resist pattern from the resist composition of the present invention, an alkaline developer is used as the developer. The alkaline developer may be any of the various alkaline aqueous solutions used in this field. Examples include aqueous solutions of tetramethylammonium hydroxide and (2-hydroxyethyl)trimethylammonium hydroxide (commonly known as choline). The alkaline developer may contain a surfactant.
It is preferable to wash the resist pattern with ultrapure water after development, and then remove water remaining on the substrate and pattern.
When producing a negative resist pattern from the resist composition of the present invention, a developer containing an organic solvent (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "organic developer") is used as the developer.
Examples of organic solvents contained in organic developers include ketone solvents such as 2-hexanone and 2-heptanone; glycol ether ester solvents such as propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate; ester solvents such as butyl acetate; glycols such as propylene glycol monomethyl ether. Examples include ether solvents; amide solvents such as N,N-dimethylacetamide; and aromatic hydrocarbon solvents such as anisole.
The content of the organic solvent in the organic developer is preferably 90% by mass or more and 100% by mass or less, more preferably 95% by mass or more and 100% by mass or less, and even more preferably substantially only the organic solvent.
Among these, as the organic developer, a developer containing butyl acetate and/or 2-heptanone is preferred. The total content of butyl acetate and 2-heptanone in the organic developer is preferably 50% by mass or more and 100% by mass or less, more preferably 90% by mass or more and 100% by mass or less, and substantially contains butyl acetate and/or 2-heptanone. - More preferably only heptanone.
The organic developer may contain a surfactant. Further, the organic developer may contain a trace amount of water.
During development, development may be stopped by replacing the organic developer with a different type of solvent.
It is preferable to wash the resist pattern after development with a rinsing liquid. The rinsing liquid is not particularly limited as long as it does not dissolve the resist pattern, and solutions containing common organic solvents can be used, and alcohol solvents or ester solvents are preferable.
After cleaning, it is preferable to remove the rinsing liquid remaining on the substrate and pattern.

(Electron beam exposure evaluation of resist composition: organic solvent development)
A 6-inch silicon wafer was treated with hexamethyldisilazane at 90° C. for 60 seconds on a direct hot plate. A resist composition was spin-coated onto this silicon wafer so that the thickness of the composition layer was 0.04 μm. Thereafter, it was prebaked for 60 seconds on a direct hot plate at the temperature shown in the "PB" column of Table 2 to form a composition layer. The composition layer formed on the wafer is coated with a line-and-space pattern (pitch 60 nm/line width 30 nm).
After exposure, post-exposure baking was performed on a hot plate for 60 seconds at the temperature shown in the "PEB" column of Table 2. Next, the composition layer on the silicon wafer was developed by a dynamic dispensing method at 23° C. for 20 seconds using butyl acetate (manufactured by Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.) as a developer to obtain a resist pattern. .
The obtained resist pattern (line and space pattern) was observed with a scanning electron microscope, and the exposure amount at which the line width and space width of the line and space pattern with a pitch of 60 nm was 1:1 was defined as the effective sensitivity.

<Pattern collapse resistance (PCM) evaluation>
The line width of the line pattern becomes thinner as the exposure amount decreases, and pattern disappearance becomes more likely. The number indicates the minimum line width (nm) of a resist pattern in which pattern disappearance due to collapse or peeling is not observed in a line pattern formed with an exposure dose below the effective sensitivity. The results are shown in Table 3.

Compared to Comparative Compositions 1 to 4, the minimum line width of the resist pattern in which pattern disappearance was not observed in Compositions 1 to 21 was small, and the evaluation of pattern collapse was good.

A resist composition containing the salt of the present invention can obtain a resist pattern having good pattern collapse resistance (PCM), and is therefore suitable for microfabrication of semiconductors and is extremely useful industrially.
