PURPOSE:To obtain the good pattern having the high resolution of the title material by forming the photoresist film having a specified film thickness. CONSTITUTION:The positive type photoresist material is composed of a photosensitive agent component contg. a quinone diazide group, an alkali soluble resin component and a solvent, and the photosensitive agent component contg. the quinone diazide group is obtd. by allowing an acid chloride such as naphthoquinone diazide sulfonic acid chloride, etc., to react with a compd. having a functional group capable of effecting the condensing reaction with the acid chloride. The alkali soluble resin component is preferably composed of a novolak resin. The resist solution is prepared by dissolving the photosensitive agent component and the alkali soluble resin component in a solvent. The positive type photoresist thin film having the film thickness of <=0.5mum, preferably <=0.4mum, further preferably <=0.3mum is formed by using the photoresist solution. Thus, the photoresist thin film having the high resolution is obtd. and the submicron pattern of the photoresist thin film can be formed.

Conventionally, photosensitive compositions containing a compound having a naphthoquinone diazide group or a benzoquinone diazide group have a molecular weight of 300 to 500
When irradiated with light of mμ, the quinone diazide group decomposes to produce a carboxyl group, thereby changing from an alkali-insoluble state to an alkali-soluble state, which is used as a positive-working photoresist and a positive-working PS plate. A compound containing a naphthoquinonediazide group or a benzoquinonediazide group can be obtained, for example, by condensing naphthoquinonediazide sulfonic acid chloride or benzoquinonediazide sulfonic acid chloride with a low-molecular compound or high-molecular compound having a hydroxy group in the presence of a weak alkali. Examples of low molecular weight compounds include hydroquinone, resorcinol, phloroglucin, 2,4-dihydroxybenzophenone,
Examples of the polymer compound include 2.3°4-trihydroxybenzophenone and gallic acid alkyl ester, and examples of the polymer compound include phenol-formaldehyde noporasoc resin, talesol-formaldehyde novolank resin, and polyhydroxystyrene.

In addition to this, photosensitive compositions containing these photosensitizers usually include:
Contains resin components. This is an essential component to provide a uniform and durable coating film and to withstand practical applications such as photoresists and PS plates. It is also required that it can be developed with alkali. Novolac resins are suitable as such resins, and phenol-formaldehyde novolac resins and flesol-formaldehyde novolac resins are widely used in practical use. In addition, styrene-maleic anhydride copolymers, polyhydroxystyrene, and acrylic resins having carboxyl groups are used.

The above positive type photoresists generally have significantly lower resolution than photocurable (negative type) photoresists. Taking advantage of this high resolution, it is used as an etching protective film (11% resist) for photolithography when manufacturing integrated circuits such as copper-clad laminate boards for printed wiring and ICs and LSIs. Now, with the miniaturization of integrated circuits due to higher integration, submicron patterns are now required.

) and other excimer laser beams are considered promising. In this case, with current positive photoresists containing Hensen rings, even when exposed to light, the light is absorbed only at the surface of the resist, and the light does not penetrate into the inside due to the absorption of the benzene ring in the short wavelength range. The problem is that it is not possible to obtain a good vertically cut pattern.

It has become clear that a good pattern with high resolution can be obtained by forming a film.
