    摘要: A thin film composed of a material containing a metal and silicon is formed on a transparent substrate, and a thin film pattern is formed by patterning the thin film. Then, the main surface and the side walls of the thin film pattern are previously modified so as to prevent the transfer characteristics of the thin film pattern from changing more than predetermined even in the case where exposure light with a wavelength of 200 nm or less is cumulatively applied onto the thin film pattern which has been formed. The main surface and the side walls are modified by, for instance, performing heat treatment to the main surface and the side walls at 450-900° C. in the atmosphere containing oxygen.

    摘要: A mask blank for use in the manufacture of a transfer mask adapted to be applied with ArF exposure light is disclosed. The mask blank has a light-shielding film on a transparent substrate. The light-shielding film has an at least two-layer structure comprising a lower layer composed mainly of a material containing a transition metal, silicon, and nitrogen and an upper layer composed mainly of a material containing a transition metal, silicon, and nitrogen.
