As a result, the pattern accuracy of the transfer mask film formed by patterning deteriorates.

In short, since the pattern of the light semi-transmissive film 2 can be formed without a difference in size from the resist pattern or the hard mask film pattern, the pattern accuracy formed on the light semi-transmissive film 2 can be increased.
  • the intermediate layer 32 preferably has a thickness of 30% to 70%, more preferably 50% to 60%, with respect to the total thickness of the light shielding film 3. If the film thickness of the intermediate layer 32 is too thin, the effect of accelerating the etching rate of the entire light shielding film 3 is reduced. If the film thickness is too thick, the side etch in the intermediate layer 32 becomes too deep and the pattern in the lower layer 31 is reduced. There is a risk that shape recovery will be insufficient.
  • the lower layer 31 having the slow etching rate after the upper layer 33 has a slower etching rate than the intermediate layer 32, side etching is less likely to occur than the intermediate layer 32 (the side walls of the pattern are less likely to be eroded). For this reason, in the etching process of the lower layer 31, excessive erosion of the side wall due to side etching is suppressed, so that the pattern shape of the upper layer 33 can be recovered, and the contact area between the pattern of the light shielding film 3 and the light semitransmissive film 2 is shielded. It can be secured in the lower layer 31 of the film 3. As a result, for example, when a pattern having a dimension of 50 nm or less is formed, the light shielding film pattern does not fall down.

  • the final transfer pattern is a pattern formed on the light semi-transmissive film 2, and a pattern formed on the light shielding film 3. Since the pattern does not become a transfer pattern, the cross-sectional shape of the light shielding film pattern itself is not so important.
  • the light shielding film 3 of the laminated structure of the present invention has the pattern of the hard mask film 4 as described above. Can be transferred to the light semi-transmissive film 2 as faithfully as possible, and there is no problem of the cross-sectional shape of the light-shielding film 3.
  • the method for adjusting the etching rate of each layer of the light-shielding film 3 is not particularly limited, but it is preferable for the present invention to perform by changing the composition of each layer constituting the light-shielding film 3. Basically, it is possible by adjusting the chromium content of each layer, but for example, adjusting the degree of oxidation or nitridation of chromium in each layer, or making the composition other than chromium different in the composition of each layer You can adjust it. Further, the etching rate of each layer may be adjusted by adjusting the amount of an element (for example, indium or molybdenum) that can increase the etching rate.

  • the content of chromium is the highest in the upper layer 33 and the second highest in the lower layer 31 (Invention of Configuration 2). Since the upper layer 33 has a region with the highest chromium content in the light shielding film 3, the upper layer 33 has the slowest etching rate of dry etching using a mixed gas of chlorine gas and oxygen gas in the light shielding film 3. Become. Therefore, there is little side etching in the upper layer 33, and the pattern shape of the hard mask film 4 immediately above is almost accurately transferred to the upper layer 33 of the light shielding film 3, so that the transfer mask having an excellent pattern shape is finally obtained. Can be manufactured. Further, the upper layer 33 having the highest chromium content has an effect of increasing the optical density of the entire light shielding film 3 because of its high extinction coefficient.
  • the lower layer 31 has the second largest chromium content after the upper layer 33, the adhesion to the light semi-transmissive film 2 having a film quality different from that of the light shielding film 3 is improved, so that the light shielding film pattern is more effectively tilted. Can be suppressed. That is, since the lower layer 31 has a relatively high chromium content, the number of vacant (holes) in the chromium binding site is relatively large, and therefore the adhesion with the light semi-transmissive film 2 of different film quality is improved. In addition, the fall of the light shielding film pattern can be more effectively suppressed.
  • the surface of the light semi-transmissive film is in an oxygen-rich state. Since the vacant site of chromium and oxygen in the light-semitransmissive film are bonded with a chemical bond, the adhesion is improved. Since the intermediate layer 32 has a film configuration with the smallest chromium content in the light shielding film 3, the side wall portion of the pattern is eroded during etching, but the light shielding film 3 has such an intermediate layer 32. The etching rate as a whole can be increased.
  • the upper layer 33 preferably has a chromium content of 60 atomic% or more (invention of Configuration 4).
  • the chromium content of the upper layer 33 of the light shielding film 3 is 60 atomic% or more, the optical density of the entire light shielding film 3 can be increased by the upper layer 33, the etching rate in the upper layer 33 is slowed down, and side etching in the upper layer portion is performed. Therefore, the pattern shape of the hard mask film 4 directly above is transferred almost accurately, and finally a transfer mask having an excellent pattern shape can be manufactured.
  • the oxygen content is preferably lower in the lower layer 31 than in the intermediate layer 32 (Invention of Configuration 3). Since the oxygen content in the light-shielding film 3 is lower in the lower layer 31 than in the intermediate layer 32, the oxygen content in the intermediate layer 32 is the highest, so that the etching rate of the intermediate layer 32 is faster. For this reason, the etching rate of the whole light shielding film 3 can be kept fast. In addition, since the oxygen content contained in the lower layer 31 is lower than that in the intermediate layer 32, the etching rate in the depth direction is slowed when etching is transferred from the intermediate layer 32 to the lower layer 31.
  • the pattern shape of the upper layer 33 is restored in the lower layer 31 and the dimension in the width direction of the pattern is maintained.
  • the contact area between the pattern of the light shielding film 3 and the light semi-transmissive film 2 is maintained. Can do.
  • the oxygen content of the lower layer 31 is relatively small, the light translucent film 2 is exchanged with oxygen and bonded with a chemical bond, so that the pattern of the light shielding film 3 and the light semitransmissive film 2 The effect of further improving the adhesiveness is also obtained.
  • the upper layer 33 preferably has a thickness of 3 nm or more and 8 nm or less (Invention of Configuration 5). If the thickness of the upper layer 33 is less than 3 nm, the risk of erosion of the pattern side wall of the upper layer 33 during dry etching increases, and if the thickness of the upper layer 33 exceeds 8 nm, the etching time of the upper layer 33 may be increased. Occurs. Therefore, by setting the thickness of the upper layer 33 of the light shielding film 3 in the range of 3 nm or more and 8 nm or less, the etching time of the upper layer 33 is suitably suppressed, and the patterning accuracy in the upper layer 33 is favorably maintained. Can do.
  • the etching rate of dry etching using a mixed gas of chlorine gas and oxygen gas in the light shielding film 3 is characterized in that the upper layer 33 is the slowest and then the lower layer 31 is slow. Therefore, the intermediate layer 32 has the fastest etching rate.
