ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a method of forming a resist pattern, including: applying a positive resist composition on a support1to form a first resist film2; selectively exposing the first resist film2through a first mask pattern, and developing it to form a first resist pattern3; applying a negative resist composition including an organic solvent (S″) containing an alcohol-based organic solvent on the support1that the first resist pattern3is formed, thereby forming a second resist film6; and selectively exposing the second resist film6through a second mask pattern, and developing it to form a resist pattern denser than the first resist pattern3.
