ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides novel copolymers and photoresist compositions that contain such copolymers as a resin binder component. Preferred copolymers include three distinct repeating units: 1) units that contain acid-labile groups; 2) units that are free of both reactive and hydroxy moieties; and 3) units that contribute to aqueous developability of a photoresist containing the copolymer as a resin binder. Photoresists of the invention exhibit surprising lithographic improvements including substantially enhanced plasma etch resistance and isolated line performance as well as good dissolution rate control.
