The present invention employs a polymer material exhibiting a low absorbance in the wavelength range of a vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) light to allow the improved ultra-fine process to be realized. In an exposure method for selectively exposing a resist layer to an ultraviolet light to pattern the resist layer into a predetermined shape, a polymer material, to which a cyclopentane group is introduced, is used as a polymer material constituting the resist layer, wherein at least one hydrogen atom of the introduced cyclopentane group is substituted by at least one selected from the group consisting of a fluorine atom, a trifluoromethyl group and a difluoromethylene group.
