Method and photoresist using a photoresist copolymer

Abstract

There is disclosed a photoresist copolymer for DUV light, with which the fine patterns allowable for the high integration of semiconductor devices can be easily obtained in a microlithography process using DUV light. The copolymer is easily prepared by reacting at least two alicyclic olefins at a high temperature and at high pressure in the presence of an initiator.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
