A method according to the present disclosure includes providing a substrate, depositing an underlayer over the substrate, depositing a photoresist layer over the underlayer, exposing a portion of the photoresist layer and a portion of the underlayer to a radiation source according to a pattern, baking the photoresist layer and underlayer, and developing the exposed portion of the photoresist layer to transfer the pattern to the photoresist layer. The underlayer includes a polymer backbone, a polarity switchable group, a cross-linkable group bonded to the polymer backbone, and photoacid generator. The polarity switchable group includes a first end group bonded to the polymer backbone, a second end group including fluorine, and an acid labile group bonded between the first end group and the second end group. The exposing decomposes the photoacid generator to generate an acidity moiety that detaches the second end group from the polymer backbone during the baking.
