[011 OJ The lactone structure moiety or the sultone structure moiety may or may not have a substituent (Rb$_{2}$ ). Preferred examples of the substituent (Rb$_{2}$ ) include an alkyl group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, a cycloalkyl group having 4 to 7 carbon atoms, an alkoxy group having 1 to 8 carbon atoms, an alkoxycarbonyl group having 2 to 8 carbon atoms, a carboxyl group, a halogen atom, a hydroxyl group, a cyano group, and an acid-decomposable group. Among these, an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, a cyano group, and an acid› decomposable group are more preferable. n$_{2 }$ represents an integer ofO to 4. When n$_{2 }$ is 2 or more, the substituents (Rb$_{2}$ ) which are present in plural numbers may be the same as or different from each other, and further, the substituents (Rb$_{2}$ ) which are present in plural numbers may be bonded to each other to form a ring. 

[0111] It is preferable that the resin (A) contains a repeating unit having a lactone structure or a sultone structure, repre› sented by the following General Formula (III).

[0112] In Formula (III), 

[0113] A represents an ester bond ( a group represented by --COO-) or an amide bond (a group represented by ----CONH-), 

[0114] in the case where R$_{0}$ ’ s are present in plural numbers, they each independently represent an alkylene group, a cycloalkylene group, or a combination thereof, and
