Glass substrate 12 is glass substrate of mask plate, and is to be made by the backing material such as synthetic quartz glass.Glass substrate 12 has first type surface and end face (side and inclined-plane), and these surfaces are polished to predetermined surfaceness separately, so that become minute surface (for example arithmetic mean surface roughness Ra is 1nm or littler).In addition, in this example, glass substrate 12 has mark 18 at the part place of end face, and this mark 18 is used to the identification or the management of glass substrate 12.By usage flag 18, glass substrate 12 or mask plate 10 are managed one by one.
Mask pattern film 14 is the films such as photomask or phase shift film.Mask pattern film 14 forms mask pattern in mask fabrication process.Etchant resist 16 is formed on the mask pattern film 14.
An example of the structure of Figure 1B flag activation 18.In this example, mark 18 is 2 d codes, and has a plurality of holes or the pit 20 of the each point that forms 2 d code.Each pit 20 is by melting with laser radiation or the part of the end face of the glass substrate 12 that distils forms.
In this example, the mark 18 representative identification information unique to glass substrate 12.In addition, identification information is relevant with for example information about surface configuration, flatness, defective etc. that obtains in the manufacture process of mask plate 10.
Fig. 2 illustrates an example of the detail shape of pit 20.In this example, each pit 20 is by using carbon dioxide (CO 2) laser labelling that forms of gas laser and the hole that forms.The opening portion of pit 20 generally is circular.In addition, formed the annular projection part, smoothly swelled with end face from glass substrate 12 in the periphery of the opening portion of pit 20, thereby around the opening portion of pit 20.By forming opening portion by this way, that can improve mark 18 reads precision (seeing Figure 1A and 1B).The opening portion of pit 20 can be such as such polygonal of square, or has the polygonal of fillet.
Here, the A/F L1 of pit 20 for example is 100 to 500 μ m, more preferably about 150 to 300 μ m.The bottom width L2 of pit 20 for example is 10 to 450 μ m, more preferably about 30 to 250 μ m.The width L3 of the sloping portion of pit 20 for example is 5 to 75 μ m, more preferably about 15 to 60 μ m.The depth D of pit 20 for example is 3 to 20 μ m, more preferably about 5 to 15 μ m.The bump height of the opening portion of pit 20 for example is 0.05 to 5 μ m, more preferably about 0.05 to 1 μ m.In addition, the surfaceness of pit 20 for example is 0.1 to 5nm with regard to Ra (arithmetic mean surface roughness), and more preferably 0.1 to 2nm.
In order to ensure reading precision fully, and be easy to generate to suppress dust by inside with the cleaning pit 20 of side brush and so on, the A/F L1 of pit 20 is 150 μ m or bigger preferably, the depth D of pit 20 is 10 μ m or bigger preferably, the A/F of pit 20 and the ratio between the degree of depth (L1/D) preferably 10 or bigger.
Glass substrate 12 is subjected to fault detection, with unusual or the like the existence of the protruding defective (particulate etc.) in the zone that check to form mask pattern at least, depression defect (aperture, crack etc.), rill, bubble, the transmissivity that causes owing to mixing of impurity.For example, the method for inspection of describing among the execution day this patent No.3422935 is with existence or the rill in the glass substrate 12 or the existence of bubble of the lip-deep raised or sunken defective of checking glass substrate 12.In this method of inspection, for two first type surfaces of glass substrate 12 and at least with perpendicular that of first type surface to the side, in glass substrate 12, propagate and satisfy simultaneously under the condition of total conditioned reflex at check light (laser), introduce check light from the inclined-plane between first type surface and side, thereby check the existence of aforementioned disadvantages by detecting the leak light that causes by the leakage of checking light, wherein check the leakage of light to cause owing to departing from total conditioned reflex, should be and depart from total conditioned reflex owing to raised or sunken defective.On the other hand, in order to check owing to the impurity in the glass substrate 12 mixes the unusual existence of transmissivity that causes, introduce light from the side of glass substrate 12 with exposure wavelength, and by receiving because the light of introducing and the light launched from the inherent vice of glass substrate 12 with wavelength of being longer than exposure wavelength with exposure wavelength, thereby check inherent vice based on the light quantity that receives.In above-mentioned any method of inspection, the side that check light all hits glass substrate 12.Therefore,, then fault detection can't be carried out,, also sufficient testing accuracy can't be obtained even perhaps carried out fault detection if the pit that serves as a mark is formed on the side (check light will hit herein) of glass substrate 12.Therefore, the pit that serves as a mark be preferably formed in as with the side of the perpendicular end face of the first type surface that forms the mask pattern film on check light light path outside the zone in certain position, wherein this check light checks that at least being present in pattern forms defective in the zone.Particularly, in the glass substrate 12 that is of a size of 152.4mm * 152.4mm * 6.35mm, certain position that is preferably in outside the core of the 132mm on the side of glass substrate 12 forms the pit that serves as a mark, that is, with four angles of glass substrate 12 in corresponding that in 10mm or shorter zone, form the pit that serves as a mark.
More preferably, with four angles of glass substrate 12 in corresponding that in 10mm or shorter zone, form the pit that serves as a mark, get rid of simultaneously and zone, the both sides of the first type surface of glass substrate 12 at a distance of 1.2mm.By form the pit that serves as a mark in the position of aforementioned indication, forming under the situation of etchant resist on the mask pattern film by spin coating method, can prevent the deterioration of thickness evenness in the plane of the etchant resist on the mask pattern film.
Fig. 3 is the process flow diagram of an example that the manufacture method of mask plate 10 is shown.Except hereinafter will describing, those steps in each step of manufacture method and the known mask plate manufacture method are same or similar.In this example, at first, by using muller to grind to have angled end-face the glass substrate 12 (grinding steps S102) of (chamfered end surface).
Then, come the end face and the first type surface (polishing step S104) of polished glass substrate 12 by using the bilateral buffing machine, and after polishing, carry out cleaning (cleaning S106).In polishing step S104, the end face of glass substrate 12 and first type surface for example experience rough polishing, finishing polish and super finishing polish, so that be polished the minute surface that for example has separately with regard to RMS (r.m.s. roughness) for 0.2nm or littler surfaceness.
Then, carry out the substrate check to obtain information (substrate checking procedure S108) about surface configuration, flatness and the defective of glass substrate 12.Substrate checking procedure S108 for example checks thickness, flatness and first type surface warped shapes (the concavo-convex state of entire main surface) about the surface configuration of glass substrate 12 or the like.In addition, for the defective of glass substrate 12, substrate checking procedure S108 for example checks position, kind, size of defective or the like.In this case, the size of defective for example is divided into 0.2 μ m or littler, 0.2 to 0.5 μ m, 0.5 to 1 μ m and 1 μ m or bigger.By distinguishing flaw size by this way, can suitably divide the grade of glass substrate 12.
Then, for example by using the laser labelling of carbon dioxide gas laser, the part of the end face of glass substrate 12 is melted by laser radiation or distils, thereby each (mark forms step S110) in the pit 20 of formation mark 18.The identification information that mark 18 representative is unique to glass substrate 12.In addition, this identification information is relevant with the assay of substrate checking procedure S108.Thereby, by usage flag 18, can discern the shape of glass substrate 12, for example thickness, flatness, warped shapes or the like, and position of defective, kind, size or the like.Therefore, according to this example, can carry out the formation of mask pattern film 14 grades effectively.In addition, for example, in mask was made, mask pattern can be designed to avoid described defective.
Form among the step S110 at mark, in the pit in the mark 18 20 each, irradiating laser repeatedly.This can reduce the change of shape of pit 20, thereby improves the precision that reads of mark 18.
Then, mark 18 is read, and based on the mark 18 that reads, determines to form mask pattern film 14 (film determining step S112) on glass substrate 12.In this example, film determining step S112 discerns the surface configuration of glass substrate 12 according to the assay of the substrate checking procedure S108 relevant with mark 18.Then, according to the shape that identifies, the warped shapes of first type surface is for example selected the type of the mask plate that is applicable to glass substrate 12.Based on this selection, film determining step S112 determines the necessary photomask of this mask plate, photomask and phase shift film, or the like, with as the mask pattern film 14 that will form.
According to this example, can determine the type of mask pattern film 14 based on the assay of substrate checking procedure S108.Therefore, can effectively not use glass substrate 12 lavishly.
In this example, it is interrelated that film determining step S112 also makes the identification information of the information of the etchant resist 16 that indication will use in the selected mask plate 10 and mark 18.Thereby,, can further discern the etchant resist 16 that will be coated on the mask pattern film 14 by usage flag 18.
After film determining step S112, on the first type surface of glass substrate 12, form determined mask pattern film 14, the thickness (film form step S114) of its thickness for realizing needed optical properties, then, the mask pattern film 14 (film checking procedure S116) that check forms.In this example, film checking procedure S116 comprises one to be passed through/by determining step, and judge whether the mask pattern film 14 that forms satisfies the mask plate specification.When it passes through the check of film checking procedure S116 (S116: by), etchant resist 16 coated (formation) is (etchant resist forms step S118) on mask pattern film 14, and the etchant resist 16 of Tu Fuing is verified (etchant resist checking procedure S120) then.Etchant resist checking procedure S120 comprises one to be passed through/by determining step, and judge whether the etchant resist 16 that applies satisfies the mask plate specification.If its check by etchant resist checking procedure S120 (S120: by), then mask plate 10 is finished.
Film checking procedure S116 and etchant resist checking procedure S120 carry out the check to the specification that influences pattern transfer separately, and it is several or still less that described specification for example is that the number of 0.2 μ m or bigger defective (aperture or particulate) is.Film checking procedure S116 for example also checks predetermined optical properties (transmissivity or the like).
When film checking procedure S116 does not pass through (S116: pass through), divest mask pattern film 14 (film strip step S206) from glass substrate 12.Then, read the mark 18 of glass substrate 12, and discern the thickness (thickness identification step S208) of glass substrate 12 according to the assay of the substrate checking procedure S108 relevant with the mark that reads 18.If glass substrate 12 has permission by polishing recycling thickness (S210: be) again, then come again polished glass substrate 12 (polishing step S212 again) according to the polished amount of determining according to the thickness that identifies among the thickness identification step S208.For example, based on the thickness that identifies, polishing step S212 is divided into glass substrate 12 by in the group in the group of thickness classification again, and according to coming polished glass substrate 12 for the default polished amount of this group.
Then, after polishing again, method is returned cleaning S106 and is repeated subsequently step.In this case, mark forms step S110 and forms mark 18, is used to identify by polishing and recycling glass substrate 12 again.In addition, film forms on the first type surface of the glass substrate 12 that step S114 polishes in polishing step S212 again and forms new mask pattern film 14.According to this example, can effectively not use expensive glass substrate 12 lavishly.
Step S210 judges based on according to for whether the processing capacity that satisfies the minimum requirements of quality institute remains the minimum thickness that the mask plate glass substrate is determined after the polished glass substrate 12 again whether glass substrate 12 can be recycled.(S210: not), glass substrate 12 is dropped in the time of can not be recycling because thickness is not enough when judging.
On the other hand, when in etchant resist checking procedure S120, passing through (S120: pass through), divest etchant resist 16 (etchant resist strip step S202) from glass substrate 12, then, judge whether to be necessary to polish again (S204) for recycling glass substrate 12.Even for example when by applying etchant resist 16 again with pre-determined number also can't check by etchant resist the time, step S204 judges and is necessary to polish again.Step S204 can judge whether based on the assay of substrate checking procedure S108 to be necessary to polish again.
(S204: not), read mark 18, and, the etchant resist 16 that be coated on the mask pattern film 14 is selected (etchant resist is selected step S214) when judgement there is no need to polish again based on mark 18.Then, selected etchant resist 16 is applied to (etchant resist forms step S216 again) on the mask pattern film 14, and method advances to etchant resist checking procedure S120 once more.According to this example,, also can suitably carry out the coating again/formation again of etchant resist 16 even when the coating/formation of etchant resist 16 is unsuccessful.In addition, owing to the etchant resist 16 that can select reliably will apply again/form again, therefore can simplify the step management.
On the other hand, when judgement is necessary to polish again (S204: be), film strip step S206 and step subsequently are repeated.This make it possible to recycling those only by apply/forming 16 glass substrate that can't be recycled 12 of etchant resist again again.
Though omit to some extent in aforementioned description, substrate checking procedure S108 judges also preferably for example whether glass substrate 12 satisfies desired quality.In this case, if judge and not satisfy desired quality, then method for example advances to the mark that forms mark 18 and forms step S110, advances to thickness identification step S208 and step subsequently then, so that polished glass substrate 12 again.This makes it possible to not lavishly, more effectively uses glass substrate 12.For example, under the situation of the glass substrate of the mask plate that is used for ArF excimer laser exposure, desired quality is meant the specification relevant with glass substrate that influences pattern transfer in the glass substrate 12, for example surfaceness is 0.2nm or littler with regard to RMS, flatness is 0.5 μ m or littler, does not perhaps have 0.2 μ m or bigger defective.
Fig. 4 is the process flow diagram that an example that is used for the manufacture method by making new mask plate 10 with the mask plate 10 made is shown.In this example, mask plate 10 has the chemical reinforcing type etchant resist that forms etchant resist 16.
In this example, at first for example by recovering the mask plate 10 that (preparation process S302) prepares to have made from the mask mark.For example, preparation process S302 is beginning to prepare mask plate 10 afterwards as the mask plate of having made 10 through the schedule time (for example one month or longer) from applying etchant resist 16.Preparation process S302 can prepare respectively polytype mask plate 10 of forming with different etchant resists 16.
Then, the etchant resist 16 of mask plate 10 is divested (etchant resist strip step S304).In etchant resist strip step S304, the etchant resist 16 of polytype mask plate 10 can be divested simultaneously.
Then, read mark 18, and, be chosen in and divest the etchant resist 16 (etchant resist is selected step S306) that on mask plate 10, forms before the etchant resist based on the mark 18 that reads.Then, selected etchant resist 16 coated (formation) (etchant resist forms step S308 again) on mask pattern film 14.
Therefore, even take place under the situation of deterioration and so at the etchant resist 16 of the mask plate of having made 10, mask plate 10 also can be by recycling effectively.In addition, can simplify the step management by usage flag 18.
