Abstract
A substrate with a multilayer reflective film, a reflective mask blank, a reflective mask and a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device can prevent contamination of the surface of the multilayer reflective film even in the case of having formed reference marks on the multilayer reflective film. A substrate with a multilayer reflective film contains a substrate, a multilayer reflective film that reflects EUV light formed on the substrate, and a protective film formed on the multilayer reflective film. Reference marks are formed to a concave shape on the surface of the protective film. A surface layer of the reference marks contains an element that is the same as at least one of the elements contained in the protective film. A shrink region, where at least a portion of the plurality of films contained in the multilayer reflective film are shrunk, is formed at the bottom of the reference marks.
