ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is an aqueous developing solution containing a quaternary ammonium hydroxide developing agent, and as an additive an effective amount of a select compound which is either 1,3,5-trihydroxy benzene, 4-methylesculetin or a novolak-type resin. The aqueous developing solution is particularly useful in developing an imagewise-exposed layer of a positive-working photoresist composition containing a novolak-type resin and a photosensitive agent. In such application, it has been found that the developing solution more effectively removes the exposed portions of the photoresist composition without leaving a residue of exposed photoresist composition at the interface of the edges of the unexposed portions of the photoresist composition and the oxidized silicon substrate.
