Abstract

PURPOSE:To form a resist pattern having sharp edge by immersing a substrate in a developer, applying ultrasonic waves to the substrate for a prescribed time and swinging the substrate until it is taken out of the developer. CONSTITUTION:Ultrasonic waves are applied to each substrate 1 having a resist from an ultrasonic generator 3 during development and the substrate 1 is swung with a swinging device 4. When ultrasonic waves are applied in the latter stage of development, the cured part of the resist is stripped, so ultrasonic waves are preferably applied for the first half of the required developing time. Thus, the uncured part can be removed nearly perfectly without stripping the cured part, and a resist pattern having sharp edges can be formed.
