Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A resist composition that generates an acid upon exposure and whose solubility in a developing solution is changed by action of an acid, the resist composition containing a base material component whose solubility in a developing solution is changed by action of an acid, and a compound represented by General Formula (e1) in which Rd01 represents a monovalent organic group and Rd02 represents a single bond or a divalent linking group

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A resist composition which generates an acid upon exposure and whose solubility in a developing solution is changed by action of an acid, the resist composition comprising: a base material component (A) whose solubility in a developing solution is changed by action of an acid; and a compound (E1) represented by General Formula (e1), wherein Rd 01 represents a monovalent organic group having 2 to 15 carbon atoms; and Rd 02 represents a single bond or a divalent linking group. 2. The resist composition according to claim 1 , wherein Rd 01 in General Formula (e1) represents a cyclic hydrocarbon group which may have a substituent. 3. The resist composition according to claim 1 , wherein Rd 02 in General Formula (e1) represents a single bond. 4. A method of forming a resist pattern, comprising: forming a resist film on a support using the resist composition according to claim 1 ; exposing the resist film; and developing the exposed resist film to form a resist pattern. 5. The resist composition according to 1 , wherein the base material component (A) has a constitutional unit (a1) that includes an acid-decomposable group having a polarity which is increased by action of an acid. 6. A resist composition which generates an acid upon exposure and whose solubility in a developing solution is changed by action of an acid, the resist composition comprising: a base material component (A) whose solubility in a developing solution is changed by action of an acid; and a compound (E1) represented by General Formula (e1), wherein Rd 01 represents a cyclic hydrocarbon group which may have a substituent; and Rd 02 represents a single bond or a divalent linking group.
