<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technique capable of easily and accurately adjusting the wavelength dependence of reflectance of a light shielding film so as to properly and rapidly perform redesigning under transition of exposure wavelength, resist drawing wavelength and inspection wavelength in a halftone phase shifting mask. Ž<P>SOLUTION: In a method for adjusting the wavelength dependence of reflectance of a light shielding film 3 in a halftone phase shifting mask blank having on a transparent substrate 1 a translucent film 2 having a prescribed transmittance and phase shifting extent to exposure light and the light shielding film 3 formed on the translucent film 2, a top layer part of the light shielding film 3 is formed as a reflectance adjusting part 3a comprising chromium, carbon, oxygen and nitrogen and the wavelength dependence of reflectance of the entire light shielding film 3 is adjusted according to the nitrogen content of the reflectance adjusting part 3a.
