Abstract: According to the invention, auxiliary openings (2) are allocated to the openings (1) on a mask which are to be transferred onto a wafer. Said auxiliary openings have a phase shifting characteristic of preferably between 160 DEG and 200 DEG in relation to the openings (1), as well as a cross-section which is less than the limit dimension (31) for the printing of the projection device, so that the auxiliary openings (2) themselves cannot be printed onto the wafer. At the same time, however, they strengthen the contrast of the aerial image of an associated insulated or semi-insulated opening (1) on the wafer in particular. According to one form of embodiment, the distance of the auxiliary openings (2) from the opening (1) is greater than the resolution limit of the projection device, the opening being less than the coherence length of the light used for projection. The effect of the auxiliary openings consists of the phase-related use of the optical proximity effect. If the auxiliary openings (2) are arranged in a preferred direction, this effect can be used on quadratic openings (1) on the mask to produce elliptic structures (1') on a wafer. The result is a considerable widening of the process window for the projection of substrate contacting planes onto a wafer.

Abstract: A carrier has a surface with a mask layer thereon. An irradiation-sensitive layer on the mask layer is exposed and developed to form a first exposure structure. The first exposure structure is used as an etching mask while the mask layer is etched. The first exposure structure is subsequently removed. A second irradiation-sensitive layer is applied to the mask layer and the carrier. The second irradiation-sensitive layer is exposed with a first exposure dose and a second exposure dose. The second irradiation-sensitive layer is subsequently developed to form a second exposure structure with a first and second exposure structure thickness. The carrier is etched down to a first etching depth in the region of the first exposure structure thickness and down to a second etching depth in the region of the second exposure structure thickness. The first etching depth is larger than the second etching depth.

Abstract: A raw layout (10) for manufacturing a circuit structure is provided using a lithographic technique. From the layout, a pattern (56) for a phase-shift mask and a pattern for a trim mask are formed. The pattern for the phase-shift mask is corrected in a first correction step (60). The pattern for the trim mask is corrected using the corrected pattern for the phase shift mask. Independent claims are also included for: (a) a data processing apparatus for correcting patterns (b) a program for producing corrected patterns (c) an integrated circuit structure (d) a phase-shift mask (e) a trim mask

Abstract: Mask set comprises a first chrome-less phase mask (1) for producing exposed and non-exposed regions on a photolaquer in a minimal structure and a second mask (2) for dividing the non-exposed regions by exposing partial regions of the regions non-exposed by the first phase mask. An Independent claim is also claimed for a process for producing structures acting as resist masks (3). Preferred Features: The second mask is a chrome-on-glass mask or a halftone mask. The exposed and non-exposed regions produced by the first mask are formed in straight lines. Both masks each have a number of individual structures.

Abstract: An irradiation sensitive layer formed on a mask layer of a carrier (1), is removed to form an exposure structure, after which the exposure structure is removed. Another irradiation sensitive layer is developed on the carrier to form an exposure structure (5) having two regions (6,7) with varying thickness. The carrier is etched to different etching depths with respect to thickness of the exposure structure covering the carrier.

Abstract: A substrate is exposed with an alternating phase mask to form a microstructure e.g. interconnects of a dynamic RAM (DRAM) on the substrate. The substrate is then exposed with a trimming mask having at least two trimming openings (31,32), for producing an alternating phase shift. An Independent claim is also included for a trimming mask.
