Abstract
A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a photoresist layer over a substrate. The photoresist layer includes a photoresist composition includes a polymer. The polymer includes a monomer unit having a pendant sensitizer and crosslinking group, and a monomer unit having a pendant acid labile group. The photoresist layer is selectively exposed to actinic radiation, and the selectively exposed photoresist layer is developed.
