Abstract: Extreme ultraviolet (EUV) mask blanks, methods for their manufacture and production systems therefor are disclosed. The EUV mask blanks comprise a substrate, a multilayer stack of reflective layers on the substrate, a capping layer on the multilayer stack of reflecting layers, and an absorber on the capping layer. The absorber comprises a first layer selected from the group consisting of Mo, Nb, V, alloys of Mo, Nb and V, oxides of Mo, oxides of Nb, oxides of V, nitrides of Mo, nitrides of Nb and nitrides of V and a second layer selected from the group consisting of TaSb, CSb, SbN, TaNi, TaCu and TaRu.
