[Detailed Description of the Invention] (1) Technical Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device, and more specifically, a method for very easily determining the suitability of a developed resist pattern and obtaining an accurately transferred pattern. The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device.

(2) Background of the technology In the photoetching process in the manufacture of semiconductor devices, a working mask is transferred to a photoresist coated on a wafer. This transfer consists of photomask alignment, exposure to ultraviolet light by contact or projection, and development. The question is whether the resist image obtained through this exposure and development accurately reflects the pattern of the working mask.

(3) Prior Art and Problems Checking whether the exposure time is appropriate in the photoetching process is much more important than checking whether the working mask is accurately transferred to the photoresist. In other words, even if the photoresist film thickness and development conditions are constant, if the exposure time is shorter than the appropriate time, the resist image will be larger than the desired resist image due to phenomena such as light diffraction, whereas if the exposure time is longer than the appropriate time, the resist image will be larger than the desired resist image. The resist image becomes smaller than the desired resist image. Therefore, if the exposure time is not appropriate, the resist must be peeled off, repositioned, exposed, and developed, resulting in a large amount of time loss.

Conventionally, in order to determine whether the exposure time is appropriate, an L-shaped length measurement pattern is placed on the line between the chip forming patterns in the host mask, and the length of the developed resist pattern to which this pattern is transferred is measured. Actual length measurements were carried out using instruments and microscopes.
Microscopic examinations involving such measurements are quite time consuming. Therefore, there has been a desire for a method that can shorten the time associated with such inspections and that is simpler, determines the appropriate exposure level of the obtained resist pattern, and obtains more accurate IC patterns.

(5) Structure of the invention In order to achieve the above object, the present invention comprises at least three
The resist is exposed to light using a mask having the following dimension check pattern consisting of patterns, and after exposure, the resist is developed to obtain a dimension check resist pattern, and this resist pattern is observed using a microscope. The method is characterized by a step of determining the appropriateness of exposure, and the dimension check pattern includes (1) a first pattern extending from one side of the mask to the other side of the mask; (3) a second pattern extending parallel to the first pattern from the one side of the mask toward the other side; and (3) a second pattern extending from the other side of the mask into the gap between the first pattern and the second pattern. and a third pattern extending parallel to the first pattern and the second pattern, and the tip side of the other side of the first pattern is a certain distance α from the tip side of the other side of the second pattern. The third pattern is located close to the other side, and the leading edge of the third pattern is on one side of the mask by α/2+2β (β is an exposure shift) from the leading edge of the other side of the first pattern. It is characterized by Note that exposure shift refers to a shift between a mask pattern ideally projected onto a photoresist and a resist pattern actually formed through a predetermined process. The deviation is considered a positive exposure shift. This exposure shift β depends on process conditions such as the photoresist's photosensitive characteristics, film thickness, resolution of the exposure optical system, exposure time, and development conditions, and takes a fixed value under certain process conditions.

That is, in the present invention, a dimension check pattern consisting of the three patterns described above is formed at a location outside the area of the photomask that is to become a product, for example, on one side of the photomask, and this pattern is transferred to a photoresist to form the three patterns. A resist pattern consisting of patterns is formed, and it is checked whether the resist line width is within a permissible range based on the relative positional relationship of the three resist patterns. In other words, when a positive resist is used, the resist pattern obtained as the exposure progresses is
In the dimension check pattern of the present invention, the entire edge of the resist pattern shrinks toward the resist side, and in the case of a negative resist, it expands in the opposite direction. Since the edges of the two patterns are reduced or expanded in the same direction, the pitch α between the first pattern and the second pattern is always constant regardless of process conditions such as exposure and development. Further, the edge on one side of the third pattern of the resist pattern is reduced or expanded in the opposite direction to the edge on the other side of the first and second patterns, and if the exposure shift under predetermined process conditions is β, The pitch of the resist pattern changes by 2β from the pitch of the projected mask pattern, but in the present invention, when proper exposure is achieved under predetermined process conditions, the edges of the other side of the first and second patterns of the resist pattern change. In the mask pattern, the third pattern is shifted relative to the first and second patterns by 2β in advance so that one edge of the third pattern is located in the middle position.

Both the first pattern 2 and the second pattern 3 constituting the dimension check pattern extend in parallel from one side of the mask to the other side of the mask, and the tip side 2a of the other side of the first pattern 2 is It is located closer to the other side of the mask by a certain distance α than the other end side 3a of the second pattern 3. The upper limit value of this constant distance α is a value inevitably determined in IC design, and the lower limit value is determined by microscopy for the first pattern 2.
The leading edge 2a of the second pattern 3 and the leading edge 3a of the second pattern 3
The difference between the two values is visible. Therefore, the range between the upper limit and the lower limit becomes the permissible range. The above-mentioned constant distance α, in other words, the allowable range α is constant regardless of the exposure time.

Using mask A (or reticle) having such a positional relationship, the exposure time for the photoresist is 3.
The resist is exposed to ultraviolet light and then developed to obtain a developed resist pattern (FIGS. 3 to 5).
That is, first resist patterns 5, 5', 5'' correspond to the first pattern 2, second resist patterns 6, 6', 6'' correspond to the second pattern 3, and correspond to the third pattern. Third resist patterns 7, 7', 7'' are obtained.

Now, if the exposure time is shorter than the proper exposure time, that is, if the exposure is insufficient, the leading edge portion 7a of the third resist pattern 7 is out of the tolerance range α and is located on the second resist pattern 6 side (FIG. 3). .
This is because the reduction value of the resist patterns 5, 6, and 7 obtained with a short exposure time is smaller than the predetermined reduction value β.
