Abstract: When a hole pattern is formed on a film to be processed, a matching deviation margin at a lithography step is reserved by making a diameter of a bottom of a hole substantially equal to a diameter of an aperture of the hole. The method for manufacturing the semiconductor apparatus includes the steps of: forming a (first) mask material film on a film to be processed; forming a tapered open pattern on the (first) mask material film; and etching the film to be processed by using the (first) mask material film as a mask.

Abstract: A method of forming a resist pattern comprising the steps of depositing a resist on a semiconductor substrate, performing a first exposure on the resist using a reticle with a certain pattern formed on it as a mask to change the degree of polymerization at the exposed area in the resist, causing diffusion of a silicon compound to silylate selectively a part of the surface of the resist, performing a second exposure on the resist so that light passing through the silylated area and the unsilylated area become inverse in phase, and developing the resist for forming a micropattern on the resist.

Abstract: An exposure mask and an exposure method are provided, which can suppress adverse effects of interference edge patterns (sub-shifters) located around a central pattern.The exposure mask has central patterns and edge patterns arranged around each central pattern. The mutual interference of edge patterns is reduced by providing an angle or a phase difference between vicinity edge patterns, or providing a single edge pattern to reduce the light transmission.
