  • Publication number: 20140210140
    Abstract: A nanoimprinting method employs a resist composition including polymerizable compounds and a polymerization initiating agent, each having absorption spectrum properties with absorption regions within a range from 250 nm to 500 nm. The polymerization initiating agent has an absorption region with a longer wavelength end wavelength longer than the longer wavelength end wavelength of the absorption region of the polymerizable compounds. Further, exposure of the resist composition is executed by light having spectral intensity properties that satisfy a predetermined relational formula. The present invention enables contamination of molds by adhered matter to be suppressed, and enables formation of resist patterns having sufficient etching resistance by nanoimprinting.
