One object of the present invention is to provide the reduced projection exposure method which enables the exposure of various and fine patterns in manufacturing process of semiconductor devices or semiconductor integrated circuit devices. Structure of the present invention to attain the above object is to carry out the reduced projection exposure using a phase shift mask provided with a prescribed correction pattern on the end of the mask pattern domain of a constant mode or the boundary of the mask pattern domain of plural modes. According to this structure, as the end effects etc. are canceled by the correction pattern, the various and fine patterns can be exposed.

The present invention enables the accuracy of aligning a wafer and a reticle with each other in the exposure step in the manufacture of a semiconductor integrated circuit device to be improved. The portions of a metal film 5 and a resist film 6 which cover an alignment mark 4 on a wafer 1 are removed by a gas assisted etching treatment using a laser beam prior to the execution of an exposure treatment, so as to bare the alignment mark 4. The position detecting light is then applied from an alignment mark position detecting means in a reduction projection exposure unit 11 to the alignment mark 4, the position of the alignment mark 4 being detected on the basis of the light reflected on and scattered from the alignment mark 4.

A thick polymer film containing an aromatic bisazide and/or an aromatic sulfonyl azide compound is formed on a substrate having topography level on its surface to flatten said surface and then heated or the whole surface thereof is exposed to a light. A mask pattern having a dry etching resistance higher than that of the polymer is formed on the polymer film, exposed parts of the polymer film are removed by the dry etching and the exposed parts of the film to be processed are removed to form a pattern.
