Abstract
The method prepares a substrate provided thereon with a first resist film having a first pattern of first pillars spaced at intervals, the pillars having a first height, and forms a second resist film on the substrate. The second resist film is formed by alternately performing, each at least twice, applying of a resist solution to the substrate such that at least the spaces between adjacent first pillars are filled with a resist solution having a thickness smaller than the first height, and by heat-treating of the substrate to solidify the resist solution thus applied, thereby forming a resist layer, whereby the spaces between the adjacent first pillars are filled with resist layers, as the second resist film, having a total thickness at least approximately equal to the first height.
