Photomask and pattern formation method using the same

摘要

A photomask includes: a transparent substrate having a transparent property against exposing light; a first light-shielding pattern formed on the transparent substrate and having a first dimension; a second light-shielding pattern formed on the transparent substrate and having a second dimension larger than the first dimension; and an opening provided in part of the transparent substrate where the first light-shielding pattern and the second light-shielding pattern are not formed. The first light-shielding pattern includes a first semi-light-shielding portion and an auxiliary pattern which is arranged within the first semi-light-shielding portion and allows the exposing light to pass through in an opposite phase with respect to the first semi-light-shielding portion. The second light-shielding pattern includes a second semi-light-shielding portion and a light-shielding portion which does not substantially allow the exposing light to pass through.
