    摘要: A resist pattern forming method includes preparing a photomask for generating near-field light having an intensity distribution. The photomask has a light-transmissible base member, and a light-blocking film. The film has a micro-aperture adapted to expose an object to near-field light seeping out from the micro-aperture. The photomask has a periodic structure and a shift of a phase. The shift exists between recesses or projections adjacent to the micro-aperture. A difference in the intensity distribution of the near-field light in the area of the aperture is reduced. The photomask is arranged close to a photoresist film on a substrate. Light from a light source irradiates the photoresist film by way of the photomask to form a latent image based on the micro-aperture, and the photoresist film is developed to form a resist pattern on the substrate based on the latent image.
