Abstract

Disclosed is a composition for formation of a mold, which is used in a method for producing a nanostructure by removing a portion of a thin film formed on the surface of a mold, and removing the mold, the composition including an organic compound, which has a hydrophilic group and has a molecular weight of 500 or more.

Claims (36)

1 . A composition for formation of a mold, which is used in a method for producing a nanostructure by removing a portion of a thin film formed on the surface of a mold and removing the mold,
