Abstract
The pattern forming method, which is a photo-nanoimprint technology, includes in this order: laying a layer formed of a curable composition (A1) containing at least a polymerizable compound on a surface of a substrate; dispensing liquid droplets of a curable composition (A2) containing at least a polymerizable compound dropwise discretely onto the layer of (A1) to lay the liquid droplets; sandwiching a layer obtained by partially mixing (A1) and (A2) between a mold and the substrate; of irradiating the layer obtained by partially mixing (A1) and (A2) with light from a side of the mold to cure the layer in one stroke; and releasing the mold from the layer formed of the curable compositions after the curing, in which a value Vr/Vc obtained by dividing a volume of (A2) per shot area (Vr) by a volume of (A1) (Vc) is 4 or more and 15 or less.
