In the pattern forming method according to the embodiment, second templates are manufactured by an imprint technology using first templates manufactured by applying a predetermined misalignment distribution for each shot on a first substrate by an exposure apparatus. Then, an upper-layer-side pattern is formed by an imprint technology using a second template in which an inter-layer misalignment amount between a lower-layer-side pattern already formed above a second substrate and the upper-layer-side pattern to be formed above the second substrate becomes equal to or lower than a predetermined reference value.

A pattern transfer method for transferring an uneven pattern onto a resist material is disclosed. The uneven pattern is formed in a template having a through-groove in a predetermined region. The resist material is applied to a substrate. The template is made to come into contact with the resist material. The resist material is filled to concave portion in the uneven pattern. The residual resist material leaked from a gap between the substrate and the template to the outside is sucked through the through-groove in a state where the template is in contact with the resist material. The resist material is made to cure in a state where the template is in contact with the resist material after the suction of the residual resist material. The template is separated from the cured resist material.

A substrate-processing apparatus includes a sample table which mounts thereon a to-be-processed substrate, a first line which supplies a chemical solution, a second line which supplies a cleaning liquid, a three-way valve connected to the first and second lines and configured to select one of the first and second lines, a filter provided across the first line upstream of the three-way valve, and configured to eliminate a foreign material from the chemical solution, and a nozzle provided downstream of the three-way valve and configured to discharge the chemical solution or the cleaning liquid when the first or second line is selected via the three-way valve. The three-way valve selects the first line when the substrate is coated with the chemical solution, and selects the second line in other cases.

A patterning method includes: forming a first film on a workpiece substrate; forming a second film on the first film, the second film being a silicon film having a lower optical absorption coefficient with respect to EUV (extreme ultraviolet) light than the first film; forming a resist film on the second film; selectively irradiating the resist film with the EUV light; and developing the resist film.

According to one embodiment, an evaluating apparatus includes a resist-pattern-data acquiring unit and an evaluating unit. The resist-pattern-data acquiring unit acquires resist pattern data having a plurality of feature values including at least two among a hole diameter measured concerning a pattern for hole formation in the resist pattern, an aspect ratio of the hole diameter, and a difference of hole diameters at a plurality of signal thresholds. The evaluating unit calculates an evaluation value using an evaluation function for evaluating whether a hole pattern formed on a processing target by using the pattern for hole formation is unopened and the resist pattern data and evaluates presence or absence of a risk that the hole pattern is unopened.

According to one embodiment, firstly, an inversion pattern having a periodic pattern in which a first line pattern and a space are inversed and a non-periodic pattern arranged at an interval which is substantially equal to the width of the first line pattern from the end of the periodic pattern is formed above a processing object so as to correspond to the plurality of spaces between a plurality of first line patterns in a first pattern and the space between the first pattern and a second pattern. Next, a sidewall film is formed around the inversion pattern, and the periodic pattern is removed selectively. Thereafter, the processing object is etched using the sidewall pattern formed of the sidewall film and the non-periodic pattern surrounded by the sidewall film as masks.
