Electron beam writing apparatus and position displacement amount correcting method

摘要

The present invention provides an electron beam writing apparatus and an image placement error correcting method each capable of calculating a high-accuracy correction amount relative to an image placement error in consideration of a difference in required unit area of height distribution data between the shape of a back surface of an EUV mask and the shape of a surface of a pin chuck. Of back surface shape data of the EUV mask necessary to perform an image placement error correction of each pattern, the back surface shape data of a position brought into contact with each pin of the pin chuck is extracted. The image placement error is calculated only from the extracted back surface shape data.
