    摘要: The present invention provides a halftone mask comprising an assist pattern and a manufacturing method of the halftone mask, which uses an ArF excimer laser as an exposing source, is used for a projection exposure by an off axis illumination, does not resolve the assist pattern while keeping the focal depth magnification effect as the assist pattern, and may form a transferred image having high contrast of a main pattern. A photomask is a photomask comprising the main pattern which is transferred to a transfer-target surface by the projection exposure and the assist pattern which is formed nearby the main pattern and not transferred, characterized in that the main pattern and the assist pattern are each constituted from a semi-transparent film made of the same material, a retardation of 180° is generated between the light transmitting through the main pattern and the light transmitting through a transparent region of a transparent substrate, and a predetermined retardation within the scope of 70° to 115° is generated between the light transmitting through the assist pattern and the light transmitting through the transparent region of the transparent substrate.

    摘要: An object is to provide a mask blank for manufacturing a phase shift mask in which a thermal expansion of a phase shift pattern, which is caused when exposure light is radiated onto the phase shift pattern, and displacement of the phase shift pattern are suppressed to be small. A phase shift film has a function of transmitting exposure light from an ArF excimer laser at a transmittance of 2% or higher and 30% or lower and a function of generating a phase difference of 150° or larger and 180° or smaller between the exposure light that has been transmitted through the phase shift film and the exposure light that has passed through air by a distance equal to a thickness of the phase shift film. The phase shift film is formed of a material containing a metal and silicon, and has a structure in which a lower layer and an upper layer are laminated in the stated order from a transparent substrate side. The lower layer has a refractive index n at a wavelength of the exposure light that is smaller than that of the transparent substrate. The upper layer has a refractive index n at the wavelength of the exposure light that is larger than that of the transparent substrate. The lower layer has an extinction coefficient k at the wavelength of the exposure light that is larger than that of the upper layer. The upper layer has a thickness that is larger than that of the lower layer.
