IMPRINT APPARATUS, IMPRINT METHOD, AND MANUFACTURING METHOD OF SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE

According to one embodiment, an imprint apparatus that presses a fine pattern of an original plate against a photo-curable resin dropped onto a substrate, and transfers the fine pattern to the photo-curable resin by applying light, includes a dropping unit that drops the photo-curable resin onto a shot region obtained by dividing the substrate into a plurality of sections, an original plate supporting unit that stamps the original plate on the photo-curable resin on the substrate, the original plate being supported the fine pattern towards the substrate side, and a substrate supporting unit that supports the substrate and moves the substrate such that a position of a predetermined shot region of the substrate is a dropping position of the dropping unit or a stamping position of the original plate, in which the dropping unit is controlled such that the photo-curable resin is sequentially dropped onto the plurality of shot regions of the substrate, and the original plate supporting unit is controlled such that the fine pattern is transferred by sequentially stamping the original plate on the photo-curable resin dropped onto the plurality of shot regions, while operating the substrate supporting unit.
