ABSTRACT:
A mask blank for electron beam exposure includes a pattern support layer that transmits an electron beam therethrough, an electron beam scattering layer formed on the pattern support layer, and a support body supporting the pattern support layer and the electron beam scattering layer. The pattern support layer is formed by a material that has an amorphous structure and that is mainly composed of carbon-silicon bonds. The pattern support layer is a tensional stress membrane that has a surface roughness of 0.2 (nm, Rms) or less. A mask for electron beam exposure is formed by patterning the electron beam scattering layer of the mask blank.
