According to one embodiment, there is provided a method of forming a pattern including forming a polymer layer on a substrate, the polymer layer including a first and second regions, selectively irradiating either of the first and second regions with energy rays or irradiating the first and second regions with energy rays under different conditions to cause a difference in surface free energy between the first and second regions, thereafter, forming a block copolymer layer on the polymer layer, and causing microphase separation in the block copolymer layer to simultaneously form first and second microphase-separated structures on the first and second regions, respectively. |
