Abstract
The uniformity of acid generator distribution and the length of acid diffusion are serious problems in the development of resist materials used for the 16nm node and below. Anion-bound polymers in which the anion part of onium salts is polymerized have attracted much attention for solving these problems. In this study, the reaction mechanism of an anion-bound polymer in cyclohexanone was clarified using pulse radiolysis. The design of an efficient electron and hole transfer system is essential to the enhancement of resist performance.
