A new alkali‐developable organosilicon positive photoresist (OSPR–1334) and a bilayer resist process with OSPR–1334 has been developed. OSPR–1334 is composed of poly( p ‐hydroxybenzylsilsesquioxane) and naphthoquinone diazide. The sensitivity and the resolution are almost the same as those of conventional novolac‐based resists when aqueous tetrakis (2‐hydroxyethyl) ammonium hydroxide is used as a developer. Also, OSPR–1334 has excellent resistance to O 2 RIE. The etching rate is 3.6 nm/min, while that of polyimide resins or hard‐baked novolac‐based resists is 100 nm/min. OSPR–1334 is suitable for use as the top layer of the bilayer resist system. OSPR–1334, after O 2 RIE, can be eliminated by dissolving an unchanged layer followed by spinning out or filtrating a changed surface layer. Submicron patterns with a high aspect ratio can easily be obtained with this bilayer resist process.
