The present disclosure relates to novel negative-type photoresist composition and methods of their use. The disclosure further relates to multiple trigger photoresist processes which allow for the improvement in contrast, resolution, and/or line edges roughness in some systems without giving up sensitivity. The photoresist compositions and the methods of the current disclosure are ideal for fine patent processing using, for example, ultraviolet radiation, extreme ultraviolet radiation, beyond extreme ultraviolet radiation, X-rays and changed particle. The disclosure further relates to sensitivity enhancing materials useful in the disclosed compositions and methods.

A method is for creating an upscaled master for an imprinting process. At least two masters are welded together, whereby at least one master includes at least partially at least one textured area. A photosensitive resin is at least applied between the two masters, whereby light of a light source is guided within a waveguiding system and cures the photosensitive resin at least between the at least two submasters when the photosensitive resin comes into contact with the waveguiding system. An upscaled master is obtained by the method, and an imprinting product is obtained from the upscaled master. An apparatus makes an upscaled master by carrying out the method.

A photoresist composition and manufacturing method thereof, a manufacturing method of a metal pattern, and a manufacturing method of an array substrate are provided. The photoresist composition includes a base material and an ion adsorbent, and the ion adsorbent is chelating resin.
