ABSTRACT:
A resist mask is formed by coating on a substrate a layer of a polymer, such as polymethyl methacrylate, which is degradable by high energy radiation, such as a scanning electron beam. The layer is exposed to high energy radiation in a patternwise manner so as to lower the molecular weight of the polymer in the exposed portions. The layer is developed to remove the exposed portions by immersing the layer in a developer which consists of alkyl acetates and ketones having between 7 and 9 carbon atoms and mixtures thereof at a temperature of at least about 40.degree. C.
