its mechanism was not clearly understood.A serious of researches on mechanism was carried out by Xiaoyin Hong et al.In this paper the results of the mechanism researches are given.It was proved that the DFVP is based on the photo-induced difference of concentration of etching accelerators in the polymer film
while the traditional photolithography is base on photo-induced difference of solubility of the polymer film. Based on the proposed mechanism some phenomenon involved in DFVC are explained and some improvements have been made.
