ABSTRACT:
A positive resist composition includes: (A) a resin capable of increasing the solubility in an alkali developing solution by the action of an acid, including: (a1) a repeating unit selected from repeating units represented by specific formulae (a1-1) to (a1-3); (a2) a repeating unit represented by a specific formula (a2); and (a3) a repeating unit selected from repeating units represented by specific formulae (a3-1) to (a3-4); (B) a compound capable of generating an acid upon irradiation with actinic ray or radiation, (C) a resin including: at least one of a fluorine atom and a silicon atom; and a group selected from specific groups (x) to (z):(x) an alkali-soluble group, (y) a group capable of decomposing by the action of an alkali developing solution to increase the solubility in the alkali developing solution, and (z) a group capable of decomposing by the action of an acid; and (D) a solvent.
