ABSTRACT:
In formation of a resist pattern using a chemical amplification type resist, a conspicuous sparingly soluble surface layer and film reduction are suppressed by controlling the ammonia concentration in the exposure/development atmosphere to the range of 2 to 9 ppb, thereby eliminating formation of a T-shaped resist pattern and film reduction. With this method, formation of the T-shaped resist pattern and film reduction are almost completely eliminated, so a rectangular resist pattern can be obtained, and additionally, the focal depth and dimensional accuracy can be improved.
