摘要:
A lower resist film, which is made of PMMA for EB exposure and has a thickness of about 200 nm, is applied onto a substrate, and then an upper resist film to be exposed to i-rays is applied on the lower resist film. Thereafter, a mixed layer, in which the upper and lower resist films are mixed, is formed in the interface between the upper and lower resist films. Next, the upper resist film, except for the head-forming region thereof, is exposed to i-rays and developed, thereby forming an upper-layer opening. And then the mixed layer and a leg-forming region of the lower resist film are exposed to EB and developed, thereby forming a lower-layer opening having an upper part like a taper progressively expanding upward.

A first resist film for EB exposure, a buffer film, and a second resist film for i-line exposure are applied sequentially onto a substrate. Thereafter, the second resist film and the buffer film are subjected to patterning for forming a first opening. Then, dry etching is performed with respect to the first resist film masked with the second resist film to transfer the pattern of the second resist film to the first resist film and thereby form a second opening in the first resist film. Subsequently, a third resist film of chemically amplified type is applied to the entire surface of the first resist film to form a mixing layer in conjunction with the first resist film. As a result, the wall faces of the second opening are covered with the mixing layer and the width of the second opening is thereby reduced.

The phase shift mask according to the present invention is a phase shift mask for manufacturing a semiconductor device. The phase shift mask includes a light-blocking portion, a light-transmitting portion, a phase shift portion, and an auxiliary pattern portion, the light-blocking portion, the light-transmitting portion, the phase shift portion, and the auxiliary pattern portion being concentrically arranged, wherein a width of the auxiliary pattern portion in a radius direction is less than a width of the light-transmitting portion and a width of the phase shift portion in a radius direction. Furthermore, it is possible that a phase of exposure light which passes through an auxiliary pattern portion is opposite to a phase of exposure light which passes through a light-transmitting portion or a phase shift portion, the light-transmitting portion or the phase shift portion being the closest to the auxiliary pattern portion.
