Abstract:
1. A pattern-forming method comprising: providing a resist film on a substrate; exposing the resist film selectively to form a more-polar site and a less-polar site in the resist film, the more-polar site being more polar than the less-polar site and being generated by an exposure to light; removing the less-polar site and leaving the more-polar site using a developing solution comprising an organic solvent to form a prepattern on the substrate; filling a space other than a space in which the prepattern is formed on the substrate with a resin composition, the resin composition containing a solvent which is an organic solvent, and a compound which is diffusible into the prepattern; diffusing the compound into a part of the prepattern; and removing portions in which the compound is undiffused in the prepattern using a removing liquid to make a pattern using the part of the prepattern.
