Abstract

A process for thin film formation comprises selectively irradiating with an energy ray a substrate to the surface of which a surface treatment for providing hydrogen atoms is applied to thereby form an irradiated region and a non-irradiated region on the surface of the substrate, and forming a thin film selectively on the non-irradiated region.
