Abstract:
A composition for removing edge beads from metal-containing resists, and a method of forming patterns including a step of removing edge beads using the composition are provided. The composition for removing edge beads includes an additive including at least one selected from among phosphoric acid, a phosphorous acid-based compound, and a hypophosphorous acid-based compound, and a carboxylic acid-based compound, and an organic solvent, where a mixed weight ratio of the at least one selected from among the phosphoric acid, the phosphorous acid-based compound, and the hypophosphorous acid-based compound to the carboxylic acid-based compound is about 9:1 to about 1.2:1.
Abstract:
