ABSTRACT:
An overlying shifter type phase shift photomask used to produce semiconductor integrated circuits of high integration density, e.g. VLSI, ULSI, etc., which is capable of transferring fine-line patterns to a wafer by projection exposure. The photomask is produced by forming at least a light-blocking layer pattern or a combination of a light-blocking layer pattern and an etching stopper layer for a shifter layer on a transparent substrate, forming a shifter layer over the whole surface of the substrate, and then patterning the shifter layer to form a shifter layer pattern. The production method includes the step of polishing away unevenness on the surface of the shifter layer caused by a step which is produced by the light-blocking layer pattern, thereby leveling the surface of the shifter layer.
