Abstract

PURPOSE:To facilitate reuse of a quartz glass plate and to lower the cost of a photomask by forming a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) film on a transparent base provided with a mask pattern and coating this PVA film with a tin oxide film. CONSTITUTION:A prescribed pattern of a Cr film 3 is formed directly on the quartz glass base 1, and the PVA film 4 is formed on the pattern. On this film 4 a tin oxide film 2 is deposited by the sputtering method. The formation of the film 2 on the PVA film 4 prevents the base 1 from being electrostatically charged up sufficiently, and exerts an protection effect on the mask pattern 3. When the pattern 3 is made unnecessary, the water-soluble PVA film 4 can be removed by water washing, and at the same time, the film 2 is also peeled, thus permitting reuse of the quartz glass base 1 to be facilitated and the cost of the photomask to be lowered.

In general, a photomask has a structure in which a predetermined pattern (opaque IW) made of chromium or the like is formed on the surface of a transparent substrate that is in close contact with a semiconductor substrate to be transferred and diluted. Moreover, a glass plate has been used for such a transparent substrate.

The thermal expansion is large, and the transparency at short wavelengths is not very good. Therefore, as an alternative substrate, a quartz glass substrate (pure silicon oxide), which has a low coefficient of thermal expansion (almost on the same level as silicon) and good transmission of short wavelengths, is being used. .

However, since transparent quartz glass is extremely expensive, great care must be taken in its use.

Furthermore, the quartz glass 1 is coated with a tin oxide film 2, which prevents this from occurring because silica glass, which has high insulating properties, is easily charged with static electricity during use.
It is true. The tin oxide film is highly conductive and the thin film is transparent, so it is suitable for this purpose [). If there is no tin oxide film, the quartz glass substrate will be charged up, dust will be attracted to the mask surface, and the dust will be exposed, or the charge will discharge and the pattern will be destroyed. Problems may arise.

The transparent quartz glass substrate has a diameter of 5 inches and is expensive at 10,000 yen, so it is being reused to reduce costs.
