摘要:
Proposed herein is a method for producing a substrate suitable for mask blanks for EUVL and the method being capable of suppressing a concave defect having a depth of less than 5 nm. The present invention provides a method for producing a substrate in which final polishing is performed by a polishing apparatus having an upper polishing plate equipped with a polishing pad, the method comprising the steps of placing a substrate stock in the polishing apparatus so that the main surface of the substrate stock face toward the upper polishing plate; rotating the upper polishing plate and polishing the substrate stock concomitantly with a polishing slurry on the main surface of the substrate stock; and raising the upper polishing plate which is kept being rotated to separate it from the main surface of the polished substrate stock.
