Abstract

See full text

A method for producing surface convexes and concaves enabling easy and highly precise formation of desired convex and concave shapes using a photomask is provided. A mask member 20 having light transmitting sections and non-light transmitting sections is disposed over one side of a photosensitive film 10 consisting of a photosensitive resin composition with a light diffusing layer 30 disposed between the mask member 20 and the photosensitive film 10. Light is irradiated from a light source disposed on the side of the mask member 20 to expose the photosensitive film 10 through the light transmitting sections of the mask member 20, and exposed portions or unexposed portions of the photosensitive film 10 are removed by development to produce convexes and concaves on the photosensitive film 10 in shapes determined by shapes of the exposed portions or unexposed portions. In the light exposure, light exposure conditions such as haze of the light diffusing layer 30 are controlled so as to control the shapes of the exposed portions or unexposed portions.
