The present invention relates to norbornene monomers with a novel
functional group containing an organometal as shown in the following
Formula (I) or (II), a photoresist containing its polymers, manufacturing
method thereof, and a method of forming photoresist patterns.
##STR1##
Unlike existing polymers for photoresist matrix, polymers made by
norbornene monomers described in the present invention is a chemical
amplification type induced by photosensitive acids and can result in
difference in silicon content between the exposed area and unexposed area
due to dissociation of side chain containing silicon. The difference in
the silicon content results in different etch rate with respect to oxygen
plasma which makes dry developing possible.
