Abstract
A mask blank that includes a thin film made of a material containing silicon and nitrogen for forming a transfer pattern on a transparent substrate. In conducting an X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy on a plurality of measurement locations in an inner region, which is a region excluding a vicinity region and a surface layer region of the thin film, in order to acquire an average value PSi_fi_av of maximum peaks PSi_fi of photoelectron intensity of Si2p narrow spectrum and conducting an X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy on a plurality of measurement locations in the transparent substrate to acquire an average value PSi_sb_av of maximum peaks PSi_sb of photoelectron intensity of Si2p narrow spectrum, (PSi_fi_av)/(PSi_sb_av) is 1.08 or more.
