  • Abstract
    The authors propose a novel phase-shifting reticle structure with two shifter layers. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the two shifter layers for repairing defects. A novel phase-shifter fabrication technique for the proposed structure is also demonstrated. The proposed fabrication process utilizes electron-beam-sensitive SOG (spin-on-glass) materials. The use of this material reduces the number of process steps for forming the phase shift reticle.<>
