The present invention relates to preparation of patterned reticles to be used as masks in the production of semiconductor and other devices. Methods and devices are described utilizing resist and transfer layers over a masking layer on a reticle. The methods and devices produce small feature dimensions in masks and phase shift masks. The methods described for masks are in many cases applicable to the direct writing on other workpieces having similarly small features, such as semiconductor, cryogenic, magnetic and optical microdevices. |
