ABSTRACT:
PURPOSE: To provide the phase shift mask which can be produced while the generation of microdefects is suppressed with relatively simple stages and with which pattern transfer with a high resolution is possible and the phase shift mask blank which is the blank material thereof.
CONSTITUTION: The mask patterns to be formed on a transparent substrate 1 of this phase shift mask are composed of light transparent parts 4 which allow the transmission of light of the intensity substantially contributing to exposing and light translucent parts 2 which allow the transmission of the light of the intensity substantially contributing to exposing. The phase shift mask is so formed that the phase of the light past the light translucent parts 2 and the phase of the light past the light transparent parts 4 are varied by shifting the phase of the light passing the light translucent parts 2, by which the light rays passing near the boundary parts of the light transparent parts 4 and the light translucent parts 2 are negated with each other and the contrast in the boundary parts is well maintained. The light translucent parts 2 are composed of thin films consisting of materials consisting of oxygen, molybdenum and silicide as main constituting elements.
