In this paper, a halftone type phase shift mask has translucent patterns of the reference transmittance and the phase difference to light passing a light transmissible substrate is defined.
Abstract
PURPOSE: To provide a halftone type phase shift mask which is formed within a permissible range of a phase difference and transmittance by distinctly defining this permissible range CONSTITUTION: This halftone type phase shift mask has translucent patterns of the reference transmittance T formed out of a film which is translucent and has the phase difference to light passing a light transmissible substrate on this light transmissible substrate The range of the phase difference and the transmittance where a relative depth of focus of >=90% is obtainable at an exposing wavelength of 365nm is indicated on a plane defining the transmittance of the translucent film patterns and the phase difference to the light transmissible substrate at X- and Y-axes A square shape inscribing the range of the phase difference and transmittance indicated on this plane is regulated by the coordinates at its vertex The phase difference and transmittance of the translucent film patterns are so set as to attain the values within this square shape

Phase shift mask and phase shift mask blank

TL;DR: In this paper, a half-tone type phase shift mask blank is presented, in which a semi-transparent film is formed on a transparent substrate, and the semi transparent film serves to shift phase of a first optical light beam which directly transmits the transparent substrate and further, serves to reduce strength of the first light beam.
