Abstract
A pattern forming method is provided which discharges droplets of a liquid material on a substrate and forms a film pattern W. The method comprises a first step of forming a central pattern W1 of the film pattern W on the substrate, a second step of forming a first side pattern W2 with respect to the central pattern W1, and a third step of forming a second side pattern W3 with respect to the central part W1.
Claims11
A pattern forming method for forming a linear film pattern by arranging droplets of a liquid material on a substrate, the method comprising:
- a first step of arranging the droplets, whose width is smaller than that of the film pattern, on the substrate and forming a central part of the film pattern by depositing a plurality of first droplets spaced apart from each other on the substrate and depositing second droplets in spaces between the first droplets;
- a second step of arranging the droplets, whose width is smaller than that of the film pattern, on the substrate and forming one side with respect to the formed central part by depositing a plurality of third droplets spaced apart from each other on the substrate and depositing fourth droplets in spaces between the third droplets;
- and
- a third step of arranging the droplets, whose width is smaller than that of the film pattern, on the substrate and forming the other side with respect to the formed central part by depositing a plurality of fifth droplets spaced apart from each other on the substrate and depositing sixth droplets in spaces between the fifth droplets.
A method of manufacturing a device having a linear wiring pattern comprising a material arrangement step of arranging droplets of a liquid material on a substrate,
- wherein the material arrangement step comprises:
- a first step of arranging the droplets, whose width is smaller than that of the wiring pattern, on the substrate and forming a central part of the wiring pattern by depositing a plurality of first droplets spaced apart from each other on the substrate and depositing second droplets in spaces between the first droplets;
- a second step of arranging the droplets, whose width is smaller than that of the wiring pattern, on the substrate and forming one side with respect to the formed central part by depositing a plurality of third droplets spaced apart from each other on the substrate and depositing fourth droplets in spaces between the third droplets;
- and
- a third step of arranging the droplets, whose width is smaller than that of the wiring pattern, on the substrate and forming the other side with respect to the formed central part by depositing a fifth plurality of droplets spaced apart from each other on the substrate and depositing sixth droplets in spaces between the fifth droplets.
A pattern forming method for forming a film pattern by arranging droplets of a liquid material on a substrate, the method comprising:
- a first step of discharging a plurality of linearly spaced apart first droplets in an elongated central part of the film pattern on the substrate and thereafter discharging a set of linearly spaced apart second droplets on the substrate, the second droplets filling in gaps between the first droplets;
- a second step of discharging a plurality of linearly spaced apart third droplets along a first side of the formed central part, the third droplets partially overlapping the formed central part and thereafter discharging a set of linearly spaced apart fourth droplets on the substrate, the fourth droplets filling in gaps between the third droplets;
- and
- a third step of discharging a plurality of linearly spaced apart fifth droplets along a second side of the formed central part, the fifth droplets partially overlapping the formed central part and thereafter discharging a set of linearly spaced apart sixth droplets on the substrate, the sixth droplets filling in gaps between the fifth droplets.
