US Patent 7754416 Process for producing resist pattern and conductor pattern

This process for producing a resist pattern includes: the step of laminating (a) a support having an upper surface on which copper exists, (b) an inorganic substance layer consisting of an inorganic substance supplied from an inorganic substance source, and (c) a photoresist layer consisting of a chemically amplified type positive photoresist composition, to obtain a photoresist laminate, the step of selectively irradiating active light or radioactive rays to said photoresist laminate, and the step of developing said (c) photoresist layer together with said (b) inorganic substance layer to form a resist pattern.
