Abstract

See full text

A photomask used by photolithography and a process for producing same which allows a single exposure to make a photomask, thereby simplifying the photomask making process, and facilitating the inspection and correction of photomasks. In addition, the phase shifter using a slanting pattern prevents a pattern from being formed outside a predetermined area. The use of a phase shifter which does not resolve under an optical projection system shields a large size area against an irradiated light, thereby allowing the formation of fine, intricate patterns suitable for use in LSIs.
