Methods of forming resist pattern, forming electrode pattern, and manufacturing surface acoustic wave device

摘要

Methods of forming a resist pattern, of forming an electrode pattern, and of manufacturing a surface acoustic wave device are provided. The resist-pattern- and the electrode-pattern-forming methods each comprise a step of forming an antireflection film for preventing ultraviolet light from diffusely reflecting to a transparent substrate. The antireflection film is formed with a semiconductor having a band gap energy of 3.4 eV or less. The reflectance is expressed by (n1-n2)<2>/(n1+n2)<2 >is 0.15 or less, wherein n1 and n2 is the refractive indexes of the substrate and the antireflection film, respectively. The resist-pattern- and the electrode-pattern-forming methods with simple processes can achieve high-quality, reliable resist patterns and electrode patterns.
