    Abstract: Provided is a method for creating a mask blank that includes a stop layer. The stop layer is optically compatible and process compatible with other layers included as part of the mask blanks. Such blanks may include EUV, phase-shifting, or OMOG masks. The stop layer includes molybdenum, silicon, and nitride in a proportion that allows for compatibility and aids in detection by a residual gas analyzer. Provided is also a method for the patterning of mask blanks with a stop layer, particularly the method for removing semi-transparent residue defects that may occur due to problems in prior mask creation steps. The method involves the detection of included materials with a residual gas analyzer. Provided is also a mask blank structure which incorporates the compatible stop layer.

    Abstract: A system and method for repairing a photolithographic mask is provided. An embodiment comprises forming a shielding layer over an absorbance layer on a substrate. Once the shielding layer is in place, the absorbance layer may be repaired using, e.g., an e-beam process to initiate a reaction to repair a defect in the absorbance layer, with the shielding layer being used to shield the remainder of the absorbance layer from undesirable etching during the repair process.
