    摘要: Lithography masks and methods of manufacture thereof are disclosed. For example, a method of manufacturing a lithography mask includes forming a stack over a substrate. The stack includes bottom attenuated phase shift material layers, intermediate opaque material layers, and finally top resist layers. The method further includes patterning the stack and then trimming the resist layers to uncover a portion of the opaque material layers. The uncovered opaque material layers are subsequently etched followed by removal of any remaining resist layers.
