Definitions
- the present invention relates to a photomask blank which is a material for manufacturing a photomask used when manufacturing a semiconductor integrated circuit or the like, a photomask manufacturing method, and a mask pattern forming method.
- circuit pattern miniaturization has become more and more necessary, especially due to the high integration of large-scale integrated circuits, and the wiring patterns that make up circuits have become thinner and the layers that make up cells.
- the photomask pattern In order to form a photomask pattern with higher accuracy on the photomask substrate, it is first necessary to form a highly accurate resist pattern on the photomask blank. Since optical lithography when processing an actual semiconductor substrate performs a reduction projection, the photomask pattern is about four times larger than the actually required pattern size, but this does not mean that the accuracy is reduced. High accuracy is required for the mask.
- the circuit pattern to be drawn is a size that is considerably smaller than the wavelength of the light to be used. If a photomask pattern in which the shape of the circuit is four times as it is is used, Due to the influence of light interference or the like that occurs when performing this photolithography, the shape according to the photomask pattern is not transferred to the resist film. Therefore, in order to reduce these effects, the photomask pattern may need to be processed into a more complicated shape than an actual circuit pattern (a shape to which so-called OPC: Optical Proximity Correction (optical proximity effect correction) or the like is applied). .
- OPC Optical Proximity Correction
- Lithographic performance may be expressed with a limit resolution, but this resolution limit is equivalent to or higher than the resolution limit required for optical lithography used in semiconductor processing processes using photomasks. Is required for the lithography technique in the photomask processing step.
- a photoresist film is usually formed on a photomask blank having a light-shielding film on a transparent substrate, a pattern is drawn with an electron beam, and a resist pattern is obtained through development. Then, using the obtained resist pattern as an etching mask, the light shielding film is etched to be processed into a light shielding film pattern.
- the film thickness of the photoresist film is the same as before the miniaturization. If processing is performed while maintaining the ratio of the film thickness to the pattern, the so-called aspect ratio increases, the pattern shape of the resist deteriorates, and pattern transfer cannot be performed properly, or in some cases the resist pattern falls down or peels off. It will cause. For this reason, it is necessary to make the resist film thinner with miniaturization.
