Description

【0001】
本発明は、分子内にカルボン酸又は特定の酸性官能基を有するフッ素系の原料化合物に対してビニルエーテル、特に脂環構造を含有したビニルエーテル、含フッ素ビニルエーテル、又はジビニルエーテルを反応させることで容易に酸不安定基を導入させた含フッ素化合物、含フッ素重合性単量体、含フッ素高分子化合物及びそれらの製造方法に関する。また、その含フッ素化合物を用いたフォトレジスト、及びパターン形成方法に関する。
【0002】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、含フッ素化合物、含フッ素重合性単量体、含フッ素高分子化合物、それらを用いたレジスト材料とパターン形成方法、及び含フッ素化合物の製造方法に関する。
【0003】
【従来の技術】
フッ素系化合物は、フッ素の持つ撥水性、撥油性、低吸水性、耐熱性、耐候性、耐腐食性、透明性、感光性、低屈折率性、低誘電性などの特徴から先端材料分野を中心として幅広い応用分野で使用又は開発が続けられている。最近、フッ素系化合物の紫外線領域、特に、真空紫外波長域での透明性を応用したフォトレジスト材料など活発な研究開発が行われている。これらの応用分野において共通の高分子設計としては、できるだけ多くのフッ素を導入することで各使用波長での透明性を実現しつつ、基板への密着性、高いガラス転移点を感光性挙動とともに実現させようとするものである。例えば、テトラフルオロエチレン、環状フッ素モノマー、フッ素系スチレン、ヒドロキシ基含有のフッ素系ノルボルネン化合物、含フッ素化合物の環化重合体などにより、各波長での透明性が増大することが報告されている。また、一般に、ポリマーをフォトレジストとして使用する場合、酸発生剤を加えた化学増幅型の感光性機構を利用することが多い(例えば、非特許文献1)。その際、高分子骨格内に酸不安定基を含有させた組成が必要とされている。しかしながら、その酸不安定基としては限られた構造のものしか報告されておらず、しかもその多くは透明性を低下させてしまう。そこで、感光性効率が高く、かつ酸不安定基自体の透明性やエッチング耐性を高めた構造が必要とされている。また環状のフッ素系化合物を有することでエッチング耐性を高めようとする流れがあるが、十分ではなく、酸不安定基自体にもエッチング耐性を付与させる工夫が必要である。

また、含フッ素アクリル酸エステル、含フッ素メタクリル酸エステルとしては、フッ素原子を有する基がアクリルのα位又はエステル部位に有したアクリル酸エステル又はメタクリル酸エステルが使用できる。例えば、α位に含フッ素アルキル基が導入された単量体としては、前述した非フッ素系のアクリル酸エステル又はメタクリル酸エステルのα位にトリフルオロメチル基、トリフルオロエチル基、ノナフルオロ−n−ブチル基などが付与された単量体である。一方、そのエステル部位がパーフルオロアルキル基、フルオロアルキル基であるフッ素アルキル基や、またエステル部位に環状構造とフッ素を共存する単位であって、その環状構造に少なくとも一部にフッ素やトリフルオロメチル基を有した含フッ素ベンゼン環、含フッ素シクロペンタン環、含フッ素シクロヘキサン環、含フッ素シクロヘプタン環等を有するアクリル酸エステル又はメタクリル酸エステルも好適に採用できる。またエステル部位が含フッ素のt−ブチルエステル基であるアクリル酸又はメタクリル酸のエステルなども使用可能である。そのような単位のうち特に代表的なものを単量体の形で例示するならば、2,2,2−トリフルオロエチルアクリレート、2,2,3,3−テトラフルオロプロピルアクリレート、1,1,1,3,3,3−ヘキサフルオロイソプロピルアクリレート、ヘプタフルオロイソプロピルアクリレート、1,1−ジヒドロヘプタフルオロ−n−ブチルアクリレート、1,1,5−トリヒドロオクタフルオロ−n−ペンチルアクリレート、1,1,2,2−テトラヒドロトリデカフルオロ−n−オクチルアクリレート、1,1,2,2−テトラヒドロヘプタデカフルオロ−n−デシルアクリレート、2,2,2−トリフルオロエチルメタクリレート、2,2,3,3−テトラフルオロプロピルメタクリレート、1,1,1,3,3,3−ヘキサフルオロイソプロピルメタクリレート、ヘプタフルオロイソプロピルメタクリレート、1,1−ジヒドロヘプタフルオロ−n−ブチルメタクリレート、1,1,5−トリヒドロオクタフルオロ−n−ペンチルメタクリレート、1,1,2,2−テトラヒドロトリデカフルオロ−n−オクチルメタクリレート、1,1,2,2−テトラヒドロヘプタデカフルオロ−n−デシルメタクリレート、パーフルオロシクロヘキシルメチルアクリレート、パーフルオロシクロヘキシルメチルメタクリレートなどが挙げられる。さらには側鎖末端にトリフルオロ又はヘキサフルオロカルビノール基が付与され酸性を有する単量体又は酸不安定基やその他の官能基で保護した単量体もその構造に制限なく移用することができる。
【0016】
ノルボルネン化合物、含フッ素ノルボルネン化合物は、一核又は複数の核構造を有するノルボルネン単量体であって、これらも特に制限なく共重合することが可能である。この際、含フッ素オレフィン、アリルアルコール、含フッ素アリルアルコール、アクリル酸、αフルオロアクリル酸、メタクリル酸、本明細書で記載したすべてのアクリル酸エステル又はメタクリル酸エステル、含フッ素アクリル酸エステル又はメタクリル酸エステルなどの不飽和化合物と、シクロペンタジエン、シクロヘキサジエンとを用いてDiels Alder付加反応を行ったノルボルネン化合物も好ましく採用される。したがって、このノルボルネンの場合も、側鎖末端にトリフルオロ又はヘキサフルオロカルビノール基を有した酸性単量体又は酸不安定基やその他の官能基で保護した単量体もその構造に制限なく使用することができる。
【0017】
さらに、スチレン系化合物、含フッ素スチレン系化合物、ビニルエーテル、含フッ素ビニルエーテル、アリルエーテル、ビニルエステル、ビニルシランなども使用することができる。ここでスチレン系化合物、含フッ素スチレン系化合物としてはスチレン、フッ素化スチレン、ヒドロキシスチレンなどの他、ヘキサフルオロカルビノールが一つ又は複数結合したスチレン系化合物、トリフルオロメチル基で水素を置換したスチレン又はヒドロキシスチレン、α位にハロゲン、アルキル基、含フッ素アルキル基が結合した上記スチレン又は含フッ素スチレン系化合物などが使用可能である。

【0019】
なお、アリルエーテル、ビニルエステル、ビニルシラン、無水マレイン酸についても公知の化合物であれば特に制限なく使用することが可能である。さらにアリルエーテルやビニルエステル系単量体であって、側鎖末端にトリフルオロ又はヘキサフルオロカルビノール基が付与され酸性を有する単量体又は酸不安定基やその他の官能基で保護した単量体もその構造に制限なく使用することができる。また、これらの共重合性化合物は単独使用でも2種以上の併用でもよい。
【0020】
また、本発明で使用できる一般式(3)の含フッ素高分子化合物としては、アクリル酸、メタクリル酸、アリル酢酸、ビニル酢酸、クロトン酸をはじめ分子内にカルボン酸を有するフッ素を持たない単量体とすでに説明したような含フッ素モノマーと共重合した含フッ素高分子化合物も使用できる。その場合共重合性単量体として使用できる含フッ素単量体中にはカルボン酸を持っていても持っていなくても使用することができる。
【0021】
さて、次に一般式(4)を有する含フッ素原料化合物を説明する。この場合も分子内に芳香族に直結したヘキサフルオロカルビノールを有していれば、低分子化合物、重合性単量体、高分子化合物のすべての構造が使用できる。一般式(4)の基を有する含フッ素原料化合物における低分子化合物としては、主に溶解性抑制剤等の感光性材料の溶解性を制御する添加剤としての用途で使用される。ここで使用できる低分子化合物を具体的に例示するならば、一般式(14)、(15)に示す原料化合物が使用できる。ここでRがHでn=1の化合物を使用した場合、ビニルエーテルは2つのヘキサフルオロカルビノール基に反応し、酸発生剤が2つ入った化合物となる。
【化17】
Figure 2004256562
また一般式(15)の−OH基の代わりに別のアミノ基やカルボキシル基になった化合物も適用可能である。
【0022】
一般式(4)を有する含フッ素原料化合物における重合性単量体としては一般式(16)に示す重合性不飽和結合を有する化合物が挙げられる。ここでもRがHでn=1の化合物を使用した場合、ビニルエーテルは2つのヘキサフルオロカルビノール基に反応し、酸発生剤が2つ入った化合物となる。
【化18】
Figure 2004256562
(式中、Rはビニル基、アリル基、ビニルエーテル基、アクリロイル基、メタクリロイル基などのフッ素を含んでもよい重合性不飽和結合を有する重合部位)であって、代表的な例を挙げるならば、
【化19】
Figure 2004256562
などである。また、ここで挙げたメタクリル酸エステルの代わりとしてα位に、水素、フッ素、トリフルオロメチル基、シアノ基などを導入することも可能である。
【0023】
また、一般式(4)を有する含フッ素原料化合物における高分子化合物としては、一般式(4)を有する重合性単量体の重合体、共重合体が使用できる。また高分子反応で一般式(4)のユニットを導入した高分子化合物も使用できる。ここで一般式(4)を有する重合性単量体と共重合可能な単量体としては一般式(1)を有する重合性単量体との共重合相手として説明したものと同様の単量体が制限なく使用できる。
【0024】
本発明によれば、含フッ素原料化合物の重合性単量体の重合方法としては、一般的に使用される方法であれば特に制限されないが、ラジカル重合、イオン重合などが好ましく、場合により、配位アニオン重合やリビングアニオン、ラジカルリビング重合などを使用することも可能であり、重合された高分子化合物も本発明に使用できる含フッ素原料化合物に相当する。
【0025】
ここでは、より一般的なラジカル重合法を説明する。すなわち、ラジカル重合開始剤あるいはラジカル開始源の存在下で、塊状重合、溶液重合、懸濁重合又は乳化重合などの公知の重合方法により、回分式、半連続式又は連続式のいずれかの操作で行えばよい。
【0026】
ラジカル重合開始剤としては特に限定されるものではないが、例としてアゾ系化合物、過酸化物系化合物、レドックス系化合物が挙げられ、とくにアゾビスイソブチロニトリル、t−ブチルパーオキシピバレート、ジ−t−ブチルパーオキシド、i−ブチリルパーオキシド、ラウロイルパーオキサイド、スクシン酸パーオキシド、ジシンナミルパーオキシド、ジ−n−プロピルパーオキシジカーボネート、t−ブチルパーオキシアリルモノカーボネート、過酸化ベンゾイル、過酸化水素、過硫酸アンモニウム等が好ましい。また一部にフッ素を含有した重合開始剤も好適に使用できる。
【0027】
重合反応に用いる反応容器は特に限定されない。また、重合反応においては、重合溶媒を用いてもよい。重合溶媒としては、ラジカル重合を阻害しないものが好ましく、代表的なものとしては、酢酸エチル、酢酸n−ブチルなどのエステル系、アセトン、メチルイソブチルケトンなどのケトン系、トルエン、シクロヘキサンなどの炭化水素系、イソプロピルアルコール、エチレングリコールモノメチルエーテルなどのアルコール系溶剤などがある。また水、エーテル系、環状エーテル系、フロン系、フルオロカーボン系、芳香族系などの種々の溶媒を使用することも可能である。これらの溶剤は単独でもあるいは2種類以上を混合しても使用できる。また、メルカプタンのような分子量調整剤を併用してもよい。共重反応の反応温度はラジカル重合開始剤あるいはラジカル重合開始源により適宜変更され、通常は0〜200℃が好ましく、特に30〜140℃が好ましい。
【0028】
このようにして得られる本発明にかかる高分子化合物の溶液又は分散液から、媒質である有機溶媒又は水を除去する方法としては、公知の方法のいずれも利用できるが、例を挙げれば再沈殿ろ過又は減圧下での加熱留出等の方法がある。得られる本発明にかかる高分子化合物の数平均分子量としては、通常、1,000〜100,000、好ましくは3,000〜50,000の範囲が適切である。
【0029】
次に本発明の含フッ素化合物について説明する。本発明の含フッ素化合物は、すでに説明した含フッ素原料化合物に対して、ビニルエーテルを反応させることで酸不安定基を付与させた一般式(1)又は(2)記載の官能基を有した含フッ素化合物であり、低分子化合物、重合性単量体、高分子化合物が挙げられる。例えば、重合性化合物として特に好適なものを挙げるならば、下記一般式
【化20】
Figure 2004256562
などで示す単量体が望ましい。
【0030】
また本発明で使用できる含フッ素化合物としての高分子化合物は前述の含フッ素化合物単量体の重合体又は共重合体の他、すでに説明した含フッ素原料化合物としての高分子化合物にビニルエーテルを反応させた高分子化合物であれば特に制限されずに使用できる。
【0031】
次いで、本発明で使用できるビニルエーテルについて説明する。本発明で使用できるビニルエーテルとしては、反応性の観点から不飽和2重結合部にフッ素を含有してはならず、水素と炭素のみからなる必要があり、その構造は下記一般式
【化21】
Figure 2004256562
の化合物である。ここで、式中Rは、直鎖又は分岐状アルキル基、芳香族基、脂環基を含んでもよい炭化水素基であって、フッ素、酸素、窒素、カルボニル結合、アルコール、不飽和結合などを含んでもよい。但し、より好ましくは、Rの一部にフッ素を含有するビニルエーテルである。すなわち、具体的なビニルエーテルとしては、例えば、Rがメチル基、エチル基、ヒドロキシエチル基、ヒドロキシブチル基などのヒドロキシ基を含有してもよいアルキルビニルエーテル類、シクロヘキシルビニルエーテルやその環状構造内に水素やカルボニル結合を有したビニルエーテル類、さらに下記に示すような環状ビニルエーテル類も使用することが可能である。
【化22】
Figure 2004256562
また、これらのRの一部がフッ素で置換されたすべてのビニルエーテルも使用できる。さらにRの一部に不飽和結合、例えばビニルエーテルを含有した場合、一般式(9)はジビニルエーテルやトリビニルエーテルなどに相当する。フォトレジスト感光性の機構として分子間の架橋反応を適用したい場合はジビニルエーテルなどの多感能ビニルエーテルが望ましい。本発明ではエッチング耐性を高める目的の場合Rに脂環構造を導入することが好適であり、透明性を高め、かつエッチング耐性を付与させる目的のためにはフッ素と脂環構造を同時に含有することが最も好ましく採用される。以上のように、上記一般式のRとして種々の構造を導入した化合物が適用できるが、含フッ素原料化合物に一般式(9)のビニルエーテルを反応した場合、RはRに一致する。含フッ素化合物が重合性単量体の場合の重合法はすでに説明した含フッ素原料化合物の重合と同様の方法が使用できる。
【0032】
さて、本発明で最も好適に採用されるビニルエーテルとしては、Rの少なくとも一部に一個以上の一般式(10)に示すヘキサフルオロカルビノール基やその他の酸性OH基と脂環構造を有するものが溶解速度の制御の面で使用できる。
【化23】
Figure 2004256562
ここで、ビニルエーテル側鎖に適切な脂環構造とは、シクロヘキサン、ノルボルネン、多核ノルボルネン、アダマンタン構造などが挙げられ、具体的には、下記一般式記載の構造が例示できる。
【化24】
Figure 2004256562
【0033】
次いで本発明で使用可能なジビニルエーテルを説明する。ジビニルエーテルとは下記一般式の構造の化合物である。
【化25】
Figure 2004256562
ここで、Rは、直鎖又は分岐状アルキル基、芳香族基、脂環基を含んでもよい炭化水素基であって、フッ素、酸素、窒素、カルボニル結合、アルコールなどを含んでもよい。すなわち、Rとしては特に制限なく種々の構造が適用できるが、透明性を向上させる目的で使用する場合の例を具体的に挙げるならば、

本発明によるレジスト材料は、酸の作用によりアルカリ性水溶液に対する溶解性が変化するネガ型、ポジ型の両方のシステムに採用できるが、本発明が効率的な酸不安定性基を導入するためのものなのでポジ型の方が好適である。すなわち最近の半導体の微細化に対応した193nmのArFエキシマレーザー及び157nmに代表される真空紫外領域のFレーザー、又は電子線及びX線などの活性エネルギー線を使用したポジ型フォトレジスト又はそれ以外のフォトレジストとして好適である。例えば、本発明によるビニルエーテルが付加した部分は、酸の作用によりアルカリ性水溶液に対する溶解性が変化する働きを有しており、効率的にポジ型挙動を得ることが可能である。すなわち活性エネルギー線が照射される前にはアルカリ性水溶液に不溶もしくは難溶であって、活性エネルギー線を照射したことにより酸発生剤から発生した酸により加水分解されアルカリ性水溶液に対して溶解性を示すポジ型になる。
【0035】
さらに詳細に本発明の使用方法を説明する。本発明の代表的な使い方としては次の2つの方式を例示できる。第1の方式は、含フッ素原料化合物にあらかじめビニルエーテル類を反応させたフッ素化合物を合成しておき、その含フッ素化合物を有機溶媒等に溶解させ、レジスト組成物とする方法である。この場合、含フッ素化合物として重合又は共重合させた化合物を主成分とし、酸発生剤やその他の添加剤を加えることでレジスト溶液とする。そのレジスト溶液を用いて基板上に成膜し、その後プリベークを行った後、次いで活性エネルギー線を照射すると、含フッ素化合物の一部又は全部が含フッ素原料化合物に戻りアルカリ可溶性が発現する。
【0036】
一方、本発明で使用できる第2の方式は、含フッ素原料化合物とビニルエーテル類を混合した状態で有機溶媒に溶解させたものをレジスト溶液とする。この場合は、酸発生剤やその他の必要な添加剤を含フッ素原料化合物、ビニルエーテル類とともに混合しておく。次いでそのレジスト溶液を基板上に成膜した上でプリベークすると、プリベーク時の加熱処理によって含フッ素原料化合物とビニルエーテル類が膜内で化学反応し、アルカリ溶液に不溶化する。その後、活性エネルギー線を照射すると、含フッ素化合物の一部又は全部が含フッ素原料化合物に戻りアルカリ可溶性が発現する。すなわち、本発明では、レジストのパターン形成過程で含フッ素化合物を使用する場合も好ましく採用される。本発明では第1の方式又は第2の方式ともに、デバイス製造におけるフォトレジストによるレジストパターン形成方法は制限なく使用できるが、好適に行うには、まずシリコンウエーハや半導体製造基板のような支持体上に、レジスト組成物の溶液をスピンナーなどで塗布し、乾燥して感光層を形成させ、これに露光装置などにより、レーザー光を所望のマスクパターンを介して照射し、加熱する。次いでこれを現像液、例えば0.1〜10重量%テトラメチルアンモニウムヒドロキシド水溶液のようなアルカリ性水溶液などを用いて現像処理する。この形成方法でマスクパターンに忠実なパターンを得ることができる。
【0037】
本発明組成物に用いられる光酸発生剤については特に制限はなく、化学増幅型レジストの酸発生剤として用いられるものの中から、任意のものを選択して使用することができる。このような酸発生剤の例としては、ビススルホニルジアゾメタン類、ニトロベンジル誘導体類、オニウム塩類、ハロゲン含有トリアジン化合物類、シアノ基含有オキシムスルホネート化合物類、その他のオキシムスルホネート化合物などが挙げられる。これらの酸発生剤は単独で用いてもよいし、2種以上を組み合わせて用いてもよく、また、その含有量は、高分子化合物100重量部に対して、通常0.5〜20重量部の範囲で選ばれる。この量が0.5重量部未満では像形成性が不十分であるし、20重量部を超えると均一な溶液が形成されにくく、保存安定性が低下する傾向がみられる。
【0038】
本発明の応用分野は、さらに所望により混和性のある添加物、例えば付加的樹脂、クエンチャー、可塑剤、安定剤、着色剤、界面活性剤、増粘剤、レベリング剤、消泡剤、相溶化剤、密着剤、酸化防止剤などの種々添加剤を含有させることができる。

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0003]
[Prior art]
Fluorine-based compounds are used in advanced material fields due to the characteristics of fluorine such as water repellency, oil repellency, low water absorption, heat resistance, weather resistance, corrosion resistance, transparency, photosensitivity, low refractive index, and low dielectric properties. Mainly used or developed in a wide range of applications. In recent years, active research and development have been carried out on photoresist materials that utilize the transparency of fluorine compounds in the ultraviolet region, particularly in the vacuum ultraviolet wavelength region. A common polymer design in these application fields is to introduce as much fluorine as possible to achieve transparency at each wavelength used while achieving adhesion to the substrate and a high glass transition point together with the photosensitive behavior. It is to try to make it. For example, it is reported that transparency at each wavelength is increased by tetrafluoroethylene, a cyclic fluorine monomer, a fluorine-based styrene, a fluorine-containing norbornene compound containing a hydroxy group, a cyclized polymer of a fluorine-containing compound, and the like. In general, when a polymer is used as a photoresist, a chemical amplification type photosensitive mechanism to which an acid generator is added is often used (for example, Non-Patent Document 1). At that time, a composition containing an acid labile group in a polymer skeleton is required. However, only a limited number of acid labile groups have been reported, and many of them have reduced transparency. Therefore, there is a need for a structure having high photosensitivity and enhanced transparency and etching resistance of the acid labile group itself. In addition, although there is a trend to increase the etching resistance by having a cyclic fluorine-based compound, it is not sufficient, and a device for imparting etching resistance to the acid labile group itself is required.

The resist material according to the present invention can be used for both negative type and positive type systems in which the solubility in an alkaline aqueous solution changes due to the action of an acid. However, since the present invention is for introducing an efficient acid labile group, Positive types are preferred. That is, a 193 nm ArF excimer laser corresponding to recent miniaturization of semiconductors and F in the vacuum ultraviolet region represented by 157 nm. 2 It is suitable as a positive photoresist using a laser or an active energy ray such as an electron beam and an X-ray or other photoresist. For example, the portion to which the vinyl ether according to the present invention is added has a function of changing the solubility in an alkaline aqueous solution due to the action of an acid, and thus it is possible to efficiently obtain a positive behavior. That is, it is insoluble or hardly soluble in an alkaline aqueous solution before being irradiated with an active energy ray, and is hydrolyzed by an acid generated from an acid generator by irradiating with an active energy ray, and shows solubility in an alkaline aqueous solution. Become a positive type.
[0035]
The use of the present invention will be described in more detail. The following two methods can be exemplified as typical uses of the present invention. The first method is a method of synthesizing a fluorine compound in which a vinyl ether is reacted with a fluorine-containing raw material compound in advance, and dissolving the fluorine-containing compound in an organic solvent or the like to obtain a resist composition. In this case, a resist solution is obtained by adding a polymerized or copolymerized compound as a main component as a fluorine-containing compound and adding an acid generator and other additives. When a film is formed on a substrate using the resist solution and then prebaked, and then irradiated with active energy rays, part or all of the fluorine-containing compound returns to the fluorine-containing raw material compound, and alkali solubility is expressed.
[0036]
On the other hand, in a second method which can be used in the present invention, a solution obtained by dissolving a fluorine-containing raw material compound and vinyl ethers in an organic solvent in a mixed state is used as a resist solution. In this case, the acid generator and other necessary additives are mixed together with the fluorine-containing raw material compound and vinyl ethers. Next, when the resist solution is formed on a substrate and then prebaked, the fluorine-containing raw material compound and vinyl ethers undergo a chemical reaction in the film due to heat treatment during the prebaking, and become insoluble in an alkaline solution. Thereafter, when irradiation with active energy rays is performed, part or all of the fluorine-containing compound returns to the fluorine-containing raw material compound, and alkali solubility is expressed. That is, in the present invention, the case where a fluorine-containing compound is used in the process of forming a resist pattern is also preferably employed. In the present invention, in either the first method or the second method, a method of forming a resist pattern by using a photoresist in device manufacture can be used without any limitation. Then, a solution of the resist composition is applied by a spinner or the like, and dried to form a photosensitive layer. The photosensitive layer is irradiated with laser light through a desired mask pattern by an exposure device or the like, and heated. Next, this is developed using a developing solution, for example, an alkaline aqueous solution such as a 0.1 to 10% by weight aqueous solution of tetramethylammonium hydroxide. With this forming method, a pattern faithful to the mask pattern can be obtained.
[0037]
The photoacid generator used in the composition of the present invention is not particularly limited, and any one can be selected from those used as acid generators for chemically amplified resists. Examples of such an acid generator include bissulfonyldiazomethanes, nitrobenzyl derivatives, onium salts, halogen-containing triazine compounds, cyano group-containing oxime sulfonate compounds, and other oxime sulfonate compounds. These acid generators may be used alone or in combination of two or more, and the content is usually 0.5 to 20 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of the polymer compound. Is selected in the range. If the amount is less than 0.5 part by weight, the image forming property is insufficient, and if it exceeds 20 parts by weight, a uniform solution is hardly formed, and the storage stability tends to decrease.
[0038]
The fields of application of the present invention are furthermore additives which are optionally miscible, such as additional resins, quencher, plasticizers, stabilizers, colorants, surfactants, thickeners, leveling agents, defoamers, Various additives such as a solubilizer, an adhesive, and an antioxidant can be contained.
