ABSTRACT:
A halftone phase shift mask blank has a phase shifter film on a transparent substrate. The phase shifter film is composed of a metal silicide compound containing Mo, at least one metal selected from Ta, Zr, Cr and W, and at least one element selected from O, N and C. The halftone phase shift mask blank has improved processability and high resistance to chemicals, especially to alkaline chemicals.
