Abstract
A method for producing a linear pattern having a width less than 100 microns and a resistivity of the order of 10.sup.-6 .OMEGA..multidot.cm on a substrate includes maintaining a low melting point metal in a fused state, applying the fused metal to a tip of a drawing head disposed close to or in contact with a substrate by capillary action, applying the fused metal to the substrate in a line with a width less than 100 microns while moving the tip of the drawing head relative to the substrate, and cooling and solidifying the fused metal as a linear pattern on the substrate.
