Abstract
An imprint apparatus cures an imprint material on a shot region of a substrate by light irradiation and forms a pattern on the shot region in a state in which a mold is in contact with the imprint material. The apparatus includes a shutter mechanism including a shutter plate configured to control light irradiation to the imprint material on the shot region and an actuator configured to drive the shutter plate, and a driving mechanism configured to change relative positions of the substrate and the mold. The shutter plate includes a first passing portion configured to irradiate a part out of a whole of the imprint material on the shot region with light and a second passing portion configured to irradiate the whole of the imprint material on the shot region.
