摘要:
A semiconductor device manufacturing method which shortens the turnaround time for semiconductor devices. In this method, shading material of resist film lies over a main surface of mask blanks and light-transmitting patterns are made as openings in the shading material. A planarizing film is formed so as to cover the shading material and phase shifters of resist film are formed on the flat top surface of the planarizing film. For exposure, pattern is used. Multiple exposure with two or more exposure areas is made in one chip area, where the exposure areas have patterns equal in shape, size, and arrangement, and phase shifters arranged alternately, so that a line pattern is transferred onto a positive type photoresist film of a semiconductor wafer.

A method of fabrication of a semiconductor integrated circuit device uses a mark having, on a first main surface of a mask substrate, a first light transmitting region, a second light transmitting region disposed at the periphery of the first light transmitting region and permitting inversion of the phase of light transmitted through the second light transmitting region relative to light transmitted through the first light transmitting region, and a light shielding region disposed at the periphery of the second light transmitting region. The second light transmitting region is formed from a first film deposited over the first main surface of the mask substrate, said light shielding region is formed by a second film deposited over the first main surface of the mask substrate via said first film, and at least one of said first film and second is formed from a resist film.

A method of manufacturing an electronic device, such as a high-speed semiconductor integrated circuit device, provides improved dimensional accuracy in transferring fine patterns. Photolithography for gate patterns and wiring patterns is carried out by exposing a halftone phase-shift mask having shade areas made of resist with an oblique illumination system, and photolithography for contact hole patterns is carried out by using a photomask having a metal shade film with metal alignment wafer marks.

A method of manufacturing an electron device provided with minute structure such as a semiconductor integrated circuit using projection exposure technique and phase shift mask technique, maintaining a high yield is disclosed. In an electron device manufacturing method according to the invention, a desired electron device is manufactured by printing a light shielding film pattern on a photosensitive film provided on the surface of a workpiece by a projection tool using a mask where a phase shifter having predetermined thickness is partially formed on the flat surface of a transparent plate and a light shielding film having a predetermined pattern and made of non-metal is partially provided with the film covering the end of the shifter and developing the photosensitive film. Further, concretely, the above pattern is printed using a mask where the light shielding film made of non-metal is partially extended on the surface of the shifter and the transparent plate including the end of the shifter by the projection tool. According to the electron device manufacturing method according to the invention, an electron device provided with minute structure can be precisely manufactured maintaining a high yield.

A semitransparent phase shifting mask has, in the periphery of a pattern element area, a light shielding portion which is formed by a semitransparent phase shifting portion and a transparent portion with the optimal size combination. A pattern is formed employing the semitransparent phase shifting mask.

In order to suppress or prevent the occurrence of foreign matter in the manufacture of a semiconductor integrated circuit device by the use of a photo mask constituted in such a manner that a resist film is made to function as a light screening film, inspection or exposure treatment is carried out, when the photo mask 1PA1 has been mounted on a predetermined apparatus such as, e.g., an inspection equipment or aligner, in the state in which a mounting portion 2 of the predetermined apparatus is contacted with that region of a major surface of a mask substrate 1a of the photo mask 1PA1 in which a light shielding pattern 1b and a mask pattern 1mr, each formed of a resist film, on the major surface of the mask substrate 1a do not exist.
