Abstract

In a micromachine according to this invention, a polyimide film is formed on the surface of each electrode. The polyimide film is formed as follows. A substrate having each electrode and a counterelectrode are dipped in an electrodeposition polyimide solution, and a positive voltage is applied to the electrode. A material dissolved in the electrodeposition polyimide solution is deposited on a surface of the positive-voltage-applied electrode that is exposed in the solution, thus forming a polyimide film on the surface.
