  • Publication number: 20230087940
    Abstract: The present invention provides a pattern forming method with which a pattern having excellent LER performance is obtained. In addition, the present invention provides an actinic ray-sensitive or radiation-sensitive composition and a method for manufacturing an electronic device, which relate to the pattern forming method. The pattern forming method of the present invention includes, in the following order, an exposure step of exposing a resist film, the resist film including an acid-decomposable group a which reacts to generate a polar group having a pKa of 6.0 or more, an acid-decomposable group b which reacts to generate a polar group having a pKa of less than 6.0, and a photoacid-generating component, a first heating step for reacting at least a part of the acid-decomposable group a with an acid to generate the polar group having a pKa of 6.0 or more, a second heating step for reacting at least a part of the acid-decomposable group b to generate the polar group having a pKa of less than 6.
