Abstract

The present invention provides a photomask production method, which comprises: providing a transparent substrate, wherein a phase shift layer having a mask pattern and a Cr layer are formed on the transparent substrate; coating a photoresist to cover the Cr layer in a spin coating manner, and removing the photoresist on the main map region Cr layer by using an exposing and developing technology; baking; carrying out primary etching on the main map region Cr layer by using a dry etching process; rinsing with a cleaning liquid; and carrying out secondary etching on the main map region Cr layer by using a dry etching process, and finally removing the photoresist. According to the photomask production method of the present invention, the baking is performed after the development, such that the strength of the photoresist can be improved, and the photoresist is not easily damaged during the subsequent cleaning liquid rinsing; the cleaning liquid rinsing step is added between the two etching steps, such that the byproduct produced due to the etching or the particles carried before the etching can be removed; and the Cr etching is changed into the two-step dry etching, such that the main map region Cr layer removal rate is improved, and the Cr residue is avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor manufacturing, in particular to a method for manufacturing a photomask. Background technique [0002] Photolithography is a particularly important step in semiconductor device processing. The essence of photolithography is to replicate the circuit structure on the wafer to be etched later. The circuit structure is first made in a certain proportion in the form of graphics on a transparent substrate called a photomask. The light source transfers the graphics to the photoresist of the wafer through the photomask. After development, the subsequent etching steps Imaging the pattern on the underlying film of the wafer. [0003] It can be seen that in the photolithography step, the light source copies the pattern to the photoresist layer of the wafer substrate through the photomask. Therefore, it is necessary to make patterns on the photomask. At present, there are mainly two types of photomas...
