    Abstract: An imprint method of curing an imprint material in a state in which the imprint material on a substrate and a mold are in contact with each other, includes curing the imprint material by applying first light to the imprint material using a first light source and applying second light to the imprint material using a second light source, thereby forming a plurality of patterns made of a cured product of the imprint material. An intensity distribution of the second light applied to the imprint material by the second light source in the curing is adjusted such that a distribution of evaluation values of the plurality of patterns formed through the curing satisfies a target distribution.
