Claim Text:
1. An imprint method of forming a pattern of a resin on a substrate using a mold, the imprint method comprising: a preparing step of preparing a resin composed of a mixture of an ultraviolet curable resin that becomes cured by receiving ultraviolet light and a luminescent material that undergoes fluorescence or phosphorescence upon receiving ultraviolet light; an applying step of applying the resin prepared in the preparing step on the substrate; an imprinting step of imprinting the mold into the resin after the applying step; a curing step of curing the resin imprinted with the mold in the imprinting step using ultraviolet light; a releasing step of releasing the mold from the substrate that has been imprinted with the pattern after the curing step; and a detecting step of detecting fluorescence or phosphorescence emitted from the cured resin that remains on the mold, based on the received ultraviolet light, after the releasing step.
