Abstract

See full text

The present invention relates to a stencil mask for non-optical lithography and a method for fabricating such a mask. The disclosed stencil mask includes a frame for supporting the whole structure; a membrane disposed on the frame for equalizing stresses resulting from the electron beam; and a scattering layer pattern disposed on the membrane for scattering the electron beam. The scattering layer pattern includes regions of varying thickness and/or scattering performance that permit the exposure to be adjusted for areas having greater or lesser pattern density. These adjustments can reduce defects resulting from proximity effects, improve the uniformity of critical features, and improve the yield and reliability of the resulting devices.
