Abstract:
A mask blank having, on a light-transmissive substrate, a light-shielding film made of a material mainly containing chromium, and adapted to use a resist film for electron beam writing when forming a transfer pattern in the light-shielding film. In the mask blank, an etching mask film made of a material containing a nitride or oxynitride of silicon is formed on an upper surface of the light-shielding film and a conductive mask film made of a conductive material dry-etchable with a fluorine-based gas and a mixed gas of chlorine and oxygen is formed on an upper surface of the etching mask film.
