Abstract:
The present invention relates generally to UV (ultraviolet) photosensitive bulk glass, and particularly to batch meltable alkali boro-alumino-silicate and germanosilicate glasses. The photosensitive bulk glass of the invention exhibits photosensitivity to UV wavelengths below 300 nm.The photosensitivity of the alkali boro-alumino-silicate and germanosilicate bulk glasses to UV wavelengths below 300 nm provide for the making of refractive index patterns in the glass. With a radiation source below 300 nm, such a laser, refractive index patterns are formed in the glass. The inventive photosensitive optical refractive index pattern forming bulk glass allows for the formation of patterns in glass and devices which utilize such patterned glass.

Abstract:
Disclosed are masks and mask blanks for photolithographic processes, photosensitive materials and fabrication method therefor. Photosensitive materials are used in the masks for recording permanent pattern features via UV exposure. The masks are advantageously phase-shifting, but can be gray-scale masks having index patterns with arbitrary distribution of refractive index and pattern dimension. The masks may have features above the surface formed from opaque or attenuating materials. Alumino-boro-germano-silicate glasses having a composition comprising, in terms of mole percentage, 1-6% of Al2O3, 10-36% of B2O3, 2-20% of GeO2, 40-80% of SiO2, 2-10% of R2O, where R is selected from Li, Na and K, and expressed in terms of weight percentage of the glass, 0-5% of F, can be used for the mask substrate.
