Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A manufacturing method including applying a resin composition for forming an etching mask pattern onto a support to form a layer containing a block copolymer and having a film thickness of 25 nm or more, and phase-separating the layer. The resin composition contains a block copolymer having a first block and a second block, the first block is includes a constitutional unit having General Formula (b1), and the second block is a random copolymer of a constitutional unit of General Formula (b2m) and a constitutional unit of General Formula (b2g). In the formulas illustrated below, R1 is an alkyl group which may have an oxygen atom or a silicon atom; R2 is an alkyl group; R3 is an alkylene group; and x represents a molar ratio and is more than 0 and 0.10 or less

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A method for manufacturing an etching mask pattern, comprising: applying a resin composition for forming an etching mask pattern onto a support to form a layer containing a block copolymer and having a film thickness of 25 nm or more; and phase-separating the layer containing the block copolymer, wherein the resin composition for forming an etching mask pattern contains a block copolymer having a first block and a second block, the first block comprises a polymer consisting of a repeating structure of a constitutional unit represented by General Formula (b1), the second block is comprises a random copolymer consisting of a structure in which a constitutional unit represented by General Formula (b2m) and a constitutional unit represented by General Formula (b2g) are arranged in a disordered manner, and a proportion of a volume of the first block to a total volume of the first block and the second block is 20% to 80% by volume, wherein in Formula (b1), R 1 is an alkyl group which may have an oxygen atom or a silicon atom, n is an integer of 0 to 5, in a case where n is an integer of 2 or more, a plurality of R 1 's may be the same or different from each other, and R b1 is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, in Formula (b2g), R 2 is an alkyl group which may have a silicon atom, a fluorine atom, a carboxy group, a cyano group, an amino group, a hydroxy group, or a phosphoric acid group, and R 3 is a linear or branched alkylene group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, which may have a hydroxy group, in Formulae (b2g) and (b2m), R b2 is a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, or a halogenated alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, a plurality of R b2 's may be the same or different from each other, and x represents a molar ratio and is more than 0 and 0.10 or less. 2 . A resin composition for forming an etching mask pattern, the resin composition comprising block copolymer having a first block and a second block, wherein the first block comprises a polymer consisting of a repeating structure of a constitutional unit represented by General Formula (b1), the second block is comprises a random copolymer consisting of a structure in which a constitutional unit represented by General Formula (b2m) and a constitutional unit represented by General Formula (b2g) are arranged in a disordered manner, and a proportion of a volume of the first block to a total volume of the first block and the second block is 20% to 80% by volume, wherein in Formula (b1), R 1 is an alkyl group which may have an oxygen atom or a silicon atom, n is an integer of 0 to 5, when n is an integer of 2 or more, a plurality of R 1 's may be the same or different from each other, and R b1 is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, in Formula (b2g), R 2 is an alkyl group which may have a silicon atom, a fluorine atom, a carboxy group, a cyano group, an amino group, a hydroxy group, or a phosphoric acid group, and R 3 is a linear or branched alkylene group having 1 to 10 carbon atoms, which may have a hydroxy group, and in Formulae (b2g) and (b2m), R b2 is a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, or a halogenated alkyl group having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, a plurality of R b2 's may be the same or different from each other, and x represents a molar ratio and is more than 0 and 0.10 or less.
