Description of the invention (A7 B7 Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs [Technical Field] The present invention relates to the use of Lithography technology to manufacture semiconductor integrated circuits, camera elements (CCD, etc.), liquid crystal displays, etc. In the case of micro-components, the manufacturing method and manufacturing device of the photomask, and the manufacturing method of the component are particularly suitable for users who manufacture photomasks for electron beam exposure devices. [Known Technology] For manufacturing semiconductor integrated circuits In the case of components such as circuits, a pattern in which a reticle (reticle) having a circuit pattern that is to be enlarged by 4 to 5 times is formed is used. By reducing the projection optical system, the exposed substrate projected on a wafer or the like is reduced. The above-mentioned copying method. The optical projection exposure device used at this time has an irradiation range of about 20mm, which has the advantage of high processing capacity. Moreover, if it is required to form a pattern than that formed by an optical projection exposure device For finer patterns, use an electron beam exposure device that can more precisely expose the pattern. Known electron beam exposure The device has many aberrations in the electronic optics system. Compared with an optical projection exposure device in which the exposure range of the irradiation is angular, although the processing power is lower, in recent years, it can compare a larger area of the pattern at one time (for example, 250 # m angle degree) An electron beam exposure device for collective reproduction is disclosed in Jpn.

This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) Read the back first and then fill in ~ 1 binding line V. Description of the invention (γ) The electronic optics system is reduced to 1/4 degree. It is copied in the pattern area with an angle of 250 # m. In addition, since the area of electronic components (integrated circuits) usually manufactured is larger than an angle of 250mm, there are also proposals to prepare a plurality of patterns with an angle of 250Vm, and then Carry on the screen connection of these while repeating in order '' Exposes the circuit pattern of one coating layer of the electronic component. In addition, since the electron beam penetrating ability is low, conventionally, in the electron beam exposure apparatus, the opening pattern (the hole is formed with a fine number of mask patterns) has been used. ) To form a stencil mask, or a mask made of a relatively small atomic element that can transmit electron beams, and a film that scatters the electron beam to form a mask pattern. These photomasks are weak because they are formed by using the electron beam transmission area as an opening or a thin film. Therefore, each photomask pattern is formed in a pattern area arranged at a predetermined interval, so that the interval portion of each pattern area is not thin Make it into the same area as the original thickness, or install reinforcing material in the space between each pattern area. Conventionally, when manufacturing a photomask for such an electron beam exposure device, as disclosed in the above-mentioned document, as an example, it is attached to a photomask substrate, and a plurality of pattern fields forming each photomask pattern are arranged at predetermined intervals. From the opposite side of the surface on which the mask pattern is formed, each pattern region is etched to form a thin film, and the thickness of the space between the pattern regions is maintained at the original thickness. Then, on the pattern forming surface of the photomask substrate, a photoresist is applied, and then an electron beam drawing device is used to sequentially draw a pattern in each pattern area. Further, a photomask pattern is formed from the photoresist pattern through a process such as etching. As described above, the conventional mask manufacturing method is attached to a mask substrate, and the mask pattern is directly drawn by an electron beam drawing device. However, due to the illustration of electron beams 4 A7 A7 Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs __B7_____ V. Description of the Invention (}) The device has a low processing capacity, and it is inconvenient to spend more time in the manufacture of photomasks. In particular, when a plurality of identical masks are manufactured, the manufacturing time required becomes very long. In addition, when drawing a mask pattern, when converting from pattern data to drawing data, an error may occur in data conversion. In addition, when a drawing error occurs due to an error in data conversion, etc., the completed mask must be completely reworked, which causes a problem of increasing the time and cost of manufacturing the mask. The present invention has been made in view of this, and an object thereof is to provide, for example, a method for manufacturing a photomask for use in an electron beam copying device in a shorter time and at a lower cost. In addition, another object of the present invention is to provide a manufacturing apparatus for a photomask capable of implementing such a photomask manufacturing method. Furthermore, another object of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing a device using the photomask manufacturing method. [Disclosure of the invention] The manufacturing method of the photomask of the present invention is a complex shape having a predetermined shape arranged on a substrate (1A; 1B) in at least one-dimensional direction through a predetermined boundary area (1Ab; 1Bb). The pattern area (lAa; IBa) forms a pattern for reproduction (P1A; P1B) in the plurality of pattern areas, which is characterized by drawing a mother pattern combining the plurality of pattern areas and the boundary area and enlarging it. (Pra; Prb) to produce a main mask (RA; RB), and a reduced image of the mother pattern of the main mask is copied on the substrate. According to the present invention described above, the mother pattern of the pattern to be copied is enlarged, for example, by drawing on a glass substrate to form a main photomask. The drawing at this time, for example, uses an electron beam drawing device, but because the drawing pattern is thicker than the conventional one, the drawing accuracy is lower, and the drawing time can be shortened. 5 --I ------ --- &gt; '-t ·-c Please read the precautions on the back before writing this page) * sl · --- line' This paper size applies to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) (B) B7 printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs _V. The invention description (W) also has a low rate of data exchange errors. In addition, when using a glass substrate, defect inspection and defect correction techniques are established, and even if a drawing error occurs, the drawing error can be easily corrected. After that, the reduced image of the main mask is copied on a substrate of a wafer or the like by using an optical reduction projection exposure apparatus, for example, so as to reduce a drawing error to manufacture a mask. At this time, by repeatedly duplicating the main mask, multiple masks can be manufactured. Compared with manufacturing multiple masks with an electron beam drawing device, the time required for mask manufacturing can be greatly reduced, and the light can be greatly reduced. Hood manufacturing costs. In addition, when the magnification of the mother pattern (PRA; PRB) drawn on the main mask (RA; RB) is large, the required drawing accuracy is not particularly high, and the drawing on the main mask can also be processed. High-capacity laser beam drawing device, which can shorten the manufacturing time of the mask more. Furthermore, in order to compensate the stress deformation of the substrate caused by the asymmetry of the pattern density in the pattern field, it is preferable to correct the position where the mother pattern is formed on the main mask. Furthermore, it is preferable to change the position of a part of a pattern formed in the pattern area. Furthermore, it is better to divide the mother pattern into a plurality of partial mother patterns, form the plurality of partial mother patterns respectively to make a plurality of master masks, and reduce the image of the plurality of partial mother patterns at the same time. Copy the screen while making a connection on the substrate, and correct the formation position of a part of the mother pattern on the main mask. Secondly, the photomask manufacturing device of the present invention is a device having a substrate (1E) arranged in a direction of at least one dimension separated by a predetermined boundary area. 6 paper sizes are applicable to Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specifications &lt; 210 X 297 mm) ---------------- Fly-I (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page)

As described above, since the film portion 1Aa and the stripe portion 1Ab are alternately formed on the working mask WM1, a plurality of mask patterns P1A on the working mask WM1 are copied on the wafer by an electron beam exposure device. At this time, the screens of the reduced mask patterns Pm separated by the stripe section 1Ab are connected while being sequentially connected and copied. Finally, each of the mask patterns P1A becomes a circuit pattern formed on the wafer. The enlarged pattern is divided into objects each having a width of about 1 to 2 mm. In addition, when the stencil mask is manufactured, each mask pattern Pu is formed as a small majority of openings in the thin film portion 1Aa. At this time, the thin film The part 1Aa is formed to be thick so as not to allow the electron beam to pass through.

In FIG. 3 (B), on the main graticule plate RA, the mother pattern PRA divided by the pattern P5A of FIG. 3 (A) sandwiching the boundary area is formed by drawing. Moreover, the same The main pattern board RB is divided into a two-dimensional mother pattern PRB that divides the pattern P5B of Fig. 4 (A) by clamping the boundary area. The mask patterns on the working mask WM1 of Fig. 1 are formed by drawing. P1A, due to its short 12 paper size, applicable to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) A7 B7 V. Description of the invention ([I) The width of the printed side of the Intellectual Property Bureau employee consumer cooperative of the Ministry of Economic Affairs It is arranged in a way of 1 to 2 mm. When the mother pattern PRA on the main reticle RA is copied on the photomask substrate 1A at a reduction ratio of 1/5 times, for example, the mother pattern PRA on the main reticle RA is The width in the short-side direction is arranged in a range of 5 to 10 mm. Then, using an electron beam exposure device, for example, when the photomask pattern P1A is copied on a wafer at a reduction ratio of 1/4 times, the tolerance of the mother pattern PRA formed on the main reticle RA is the semiconductor device manufactured last. The allowable error of the circuit pattern on the substrate (wafer) is 20 times. Therefore, compared with the electron beam drawing device used in the past, a laser beam drawing device with a lower precision but a faster daylight speed can be used in the manufacture of the main marking board, and the time can be shortened. Manufacture of main marking board. Furthermore, when manufacturing the working mask WM1, on the surface of the mask substrate 1A on which the thin film portion 1Aa has been formed, the integration with the position of the thin film portion 1Aa is taken while the reduction of the mother pattern IV on the main reticle RA is reproduced image. Then, the interval of these divided mother patterns PRA must be made in a manner that the main reticle RA is made in a manner consistent with the interval of each thin film portion 1Aa on the working mask WM1 when it has been reduced, that is, the width of the strip portion 1Ab. The same applies to the main reticle RB. In the above embodiment, for the sake of simplicity, only one main reticle is used in the manufacture of the working mask, but the area that can be copied by one main reticle, even when using the latest optical projection exposure device At this time, it is also an area with an angle of 20 mm. If it is further reduced to 1/4 times, it can only be an area with an angle of 5 mm on the wafer. Therefore, when actually manufacturing the working mask, a plurality of main reticle plates are manufactured, and while the mother patterns are screen-connected, they are sequentially copied on the substrate for the working mask. 13 This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard &lt; CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm).

The formation position of each pattern PπPα is formed with the position of each mask pattern. The film portion on the reverse surface of the photomask substrate 1C is aligned. Furthermore, it is not necessary to form all these patterns Pl ~ Pl6 on different main reticles, and it is also possible to form some patterns on the same main reticle. At this time, as long as a desired pattern is selected from a plurality of patterns formed on one main reticle, it can be copied on the photomask substrate 1C. In addition, when the mask pattern formed in the working mask WM3 is divided into a plurality of patterns in this way, for example, the area can be divided equally. However, it is best to use each unit circuit pattern with a specific function as The unit is divided. For example, it is preferable to divide each unit (IP (Intellectual Property)) of the system LSI as a unit. That is, it is preferable that each of the unit circuit patterns of the CPU central portion, the RAM portion, the ROM portion, the A / D conversion portion, the D / A conversion portion, and the like form a different main reticle.

Description of the invention (〖t) The moving mirror 18 is fixed on the upper part of the material table 17, and the X coordinate, Y coordinate and the coordinate of the sample table 17 are measured by the moving mirror 18 and the laser interferometer 19. The rotation angle is measured based on this to control the sample base 20. Furthermore, by using an autofocus sensor (not shown) to "measure the focus position of the photomask substrate 1E (position on the optical axis AX direction)", the sample stage 17 can control the photomask 1E to control the focus position and tilt angle of the photomask substrate 1E. The surface of the substrate 1E coincides with the image plane of the projection optical system 15. Furthermore, in the present example, a frame-shaped main marking plate library 14 is arranged on the side of the marking plate table 10, and a main marking plate is arranged in a support plate arranged in two directions in the main marking plate library 14 RC ~ RG. On these main graticule plates RC to RG, there are formed, for example, a pattern in which a part of the mother pattern 6 dividing the mother pattern 6 in FIG. 8 or a plurality of types of IP portions are formed. Therefore, the number of main marking boards RC ~ RG is not limited to five, and can be increased or decreased as required. The main marking plate library 14 ′ is freely supported in the Z direction by a sliding device (not shown), and is arranged between the marking plate table 10 and the main marking plate library 14 so as to be rotatable and movable within a predetermined range in the Z direction.之 标 线 板载 器 13。 The marking line plate carrier 13.

Description of the Invention (,)). This also applies to a substrate holder (not shown) on the sample stand 17. Furthermore, in order to position and expose the reduced image of the mother pattern on the main reticle RC and the thin film portion 1Ea (see FIG. 7) formed on the reverse side of the mask substrate 1E, the exposure device of this example is provided with Correction optics 16. FIG. 7 shows the vicinity of the correction optical system 16 detected on the reverse illuminated surface of this example. In FIG. 7, the wavelength of the correction illumination optical system composed of the light source 22 and the condenser lens 23 provided in the sample table 17 is shown. Near infrared light of about 700 to 100 nm is irradiated from the reverse surface of the mask substrate 1E, and the transmitted light is detected by, for example, a correction optical system 16 composed of an imaging system. Since the material of the mask substrate 1E is a silicon wafer, since the near-infrared light has a certain degree of permeability to silicon, the intensity of the transmitted light depends on the thickness of the mask substrate 1E, that is, the illumination area on the reverse side of the mask substrate 1E is The thin film portion 1Ea or the stripe portion 1Eb varies. Therefore, based on the intensity of the transmitted light image, the position of the thin film portion 1Ea of the mask substrate 1E is detected, that is, the reduced image of the mother pattern and the thin film portion 1Ea can be positioned for exposure. Returning to FIG. 6, when copying the mother pattern on the main reticle RC ~ RG to the photomask substrate 1E, first use the RA microscope 12 to correct the main reticle RC. By moving the sample table 17, the photomask substrate The predetermined irradiation area on 1E moves to the exposure area of the projection optical system 15. In addition, the "reticle shading plate of the illumination optical system 12" is adjusted so as to illuminate only the desired pattern on the main reticle RC. Then, the pattern on the main reticle RC is illuminated with the illumination optical system 12, and the reduced image of the pattern is projected and exposed on the mask substrate 1E through the projection optical system 5. Then, suppose that the images of the patterns in different areas on the main reticle RC are 'copied' in different irradiation areas on the photomask substrate 1E. 19 This paper size applies to Chinese national standards (CNS> A4 specification (210 X 297 public love)) Printed by the Consumers ’Cooperative of Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs A7 B7 V. Description of Invention (α), when the exposure to an irradiation field is over, 'adjust the reticle shading plate of the lighting optics 12 to make the reticle on the main reticle RC The pattern of the next copy object can be illuminated, and the sample table 17 is moved to move the next irradiation area above and below the photomask substrate 1E to the exposure area of the projection optics 15 'in a step and repeat manner to repeat the main reticle RC The exposure operation of the patterned image is performed to the predetermined irradiation area on the mask substrate 1E. When the exposure of the pattern on the main reticle RC is finished, the sample table 17 is moved up and down the mask substrate 1E. The irradiation area is moved to the exposure area of the projection optical system 15. At the same time, the main reticle RC on the reticle plate 10 is returned to the main reticle plate library 14 through the reticle holder 13 'Next Copy object The main reticle RD is placed on the reticle plate 10 through the reticle holder 13. After correction, the reduced image of the main reticle RD is projected and exposed on the mask substrate through the projection optical system 15 For the corresponding irradiation areas on 1E, the following stepwise and repetitive methods are used to expose the reduced images of the main graticule plates RE to RG corresponding to the remaining irradiation areas on the mask substrate 1E. Then, for all After the exposure in the irradiated area is completed, the photoresist coated on the photomask substrate 1E is developed, and through the engraving step, photoresist peeling step, etc., the main reticle RC is formed on the photomask substrate 1E in a state of screen connection.

In addition, in order to use an electron beam exposure device, a mask mark for correcting the mask substrate 1E when the pattern of the mask substrate 1E is reproduced on a wafer, and to be formed in the next step for inspection. The wafer marks at the positions of the patterns on the wafer are formed in advance on the photomask substrate 1E (working photomask), and at least one of the main reticle plates rc to RG is formed with such correction marks. 20 --- --------- install -------- order --------- line Ν ( Read the notes on the back before you write this page) This paper size applies to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) A7 B7 V. Description of Invention (θ) Employees ’Cooperatives, Bureau of Intellectual Property, Ministry of Economic Affairs For printing, in this example, a single exposure type projection exposure device is used. However, a scanning exposure type reduction projection exposure device such as a step and scan method can also be used. In addition, a reduced image of the pattern of the main reticle is copied. When used on a substrate for a working mask, a reduction and copying device other than an optical method, such as a low-precision electron beam exposure device, may be used. However, when using an optical reduction and copying device, established manufacturing techniques and The manufacturing of the main reticle by using a glass substrate for drawing error correction technology has the advantage that the main reticle can be easily manufactured, inspected, and corrected. Before forming the mask pattern on the working mask, it is preferable to form a thin film portion on the reverse side of the mask substrate of the working mask in advance. This is because the thin film portion is formed after the mask pattern is formed. The mask substrate may be deformed due to the stress generated when the thin film portion is formed, and the mask pattern may be displaced. The deformation (stress deformation) of the working mask is caused not only by the formation of the thin film portion but also by the formation of the mask pattern. Especially in the case where the density (thickness) of the mask pattern formed on a thin film portion formed by a rectangular region within 1 mm or a quadrangular region within 1 mm is large, the mask follows this mask. The density difference of the pattern is caused by stress deformation in the thin film portion, and the formed mask pattern may deviate from a desired position. The stress deformation of the working mask due to the density difference of this pattern can be estimated by simulation based on the mask pattern data. Therefore, when manufacturing the main reticle, the amount of positional deviation of the mask pattern due to stress deformation is estimated in advance, and the formation position of the mother pattern (partial mother pattern) on the main reticle is deviated from the established amount in advance.
