Abstract

A stamper and optical disk. A photoresist is applied to a substrate and this photoresist is exposed, developed and then transferred to form a disk master which has a recess/protrusion pattern formed on its one side. The one side of the disk master is etched to narrow the width of a protruding part constituting the recess/protrusion pattern, and the recess/protrusion pattern of the disk master with the reduced width of the protruding part is transferred to form a stamper. The recess/protrusion pattern provided on the stamper is transferred to form a predetermined pattern on a substrate of an optical disk.
