Abstract
A pattern forming method, comprising the steps of providing a resist film on a substrate; providing a photosensitive film containing a photosensitive diazonium salt on the resist film; and then subjecting the resultant composite to pattern exposure by use of a light to which both of the resist film and the photosensitive diazonium salt are sensitive, can employ a composition for pattern formation which comprises a photosensitive diazonium salt, a resin binder and a solvent. By this method, a minute pattern of 1 .mu.m or less can be formed, utilizing effectively the UV-ray exposure technique of the prior art, with good dimensional precision and stability.
