Abstract
A method for manufacturing a diffraction grating includes applying a resist, the developing speed of which has an extreme at a certain exposure intensity, to a substrate on which the diffraction grating is to be formed, performing interference exposure of the resist with maximum and minimum values of exposure intensity respectively larger and smaller than the intensity which makes the developing speed an extreme, developing the resist, and etching the substrate using the remaining resist as a mask.
