Abstract

Sub-100A line width patterns are formed on a member by electron beam conversion and fixing of a resist that arrives at the reaction zone point by surface migration into a resist pattern of a precise thickness and width while the member rests on an electron backscattering control support. The resist is for example a contamination film from a vacuum pump oil used in evacuating the apparatus used to perform the process, e.g. silicone oil.
