By using a novel method, the exposure time of the photosensitive paste layer is reduced and the exposure fineness of the layer is improved, thereby developing a highly fine circuit substrate of high density having a thermal resistance at a reasonable cost. A circuit substrate is manufactured as follows. A photosensitive paste containing photoresist and a circuit material is applied onto a substrate surface so as to form a photosensitive paste layer (4). This photosensitive paste layer (4) is plotted by a laser beam (8) so as to form a plotted area (7).
