Abstract
This method for disposing fine objects, in a substrate preparing step, prepares a substrate having specified positions where fine objects () are to be disposed in an area where a first electrode () and a second electrode () face each other, and in a fluid introducing step, a fluid () is introduced on the substrate (). The fluid () contains a plurality of the fine objects (). The fine objects () are diode elements, each of which has, as an alignment structure, a front side layer () composed of a dielectric material, and a rear side layer () composed of a semiconductor. In the fine object disposing step, by applying an AC voltage to between the first electrode () and the second electrode (), the fine objects () are disposed by dielectrophoresis with the front side layer () facing up at the predetermined positions in the area (A) where the first electrode () and the second electrode () face each other.
