According to one embodiment, a pattern formation material includes a first monomer. The first monomer includes a first molecular chain, a first group, and a second group. The first molecular chain includes a first end and a second end. The first group has an ester bond to the first end. The second group has an ester bond to the second end. The first group is one of acrylic acid or methacrylic acid. The second group is one of acrylic acid or methacrylic acid. The first molecular chain includes a plurality of first elements bonded in a straight chain configuration. The first elements are one of carbon or oxygen. The number of the first elements is 6 or more. A film including the first monomer is caused to absorb a metal compound including a metallic element.

Pattern formation material and pattern formation method

According to one embodiment, a pattern formation method is disclosed. The method can include a film formation process, and a exposure process. The film formation process forms a pattern formation material film on a base body. The pattern formation material film includes a pattern formation material including a first portion and a second portion. The first portion includes at least one of acrylate or methacrylate. The second portion includes an alicyclic compound and a carbonyl group. The alicyclic compound has an ester bond to the at least one of the acrylate or the methacrylate. The carbonyl group is bonded to the alicyclic compound. The exposure process causes the pattern formation material film to expose to a metal compound including a metallic element.
