Abstract
The present invention pertains to a curable composition which comprises a) a N-substituted 4-(o-nitrophenyl)dihydropyridine which constitutes a base-generating substance that is caused to generate a base by the action of ultraviolet light, and (b) a silicone polymer (R.sub.2 SiO.sub.2/2)(RSiO.sub.3/2) containing silicon-hydrogen bonds (Si--H) which are capable of reacting with hydroxy groups to form silicon-oxygen bonds (Si--O) and hydrogen molecules (H.sub.2) under the effect of the base. This composition is cured by irradiation with ultraviolet light. Patterns are formed by placing a mask between a coating film of the composition and the ultraviolet light source during the irradiation with ultraviolet light, and then dissolving and removing the uncured portions of the composition following said irradiation.
