Abstract
A photomask includes a transparent substrate, a predetermined pattern of a light blocking member disposed on the transparent substrate, and a phase member formed along a peripheral edge of the light blocking member and exposed by a predetermined width. The photomask manufacturing method includes forming a transparent film on a surface of a transparent substrate, forming a predetermined pattern of a light blocking member on the transparent film, forming an etching mask layer on the transparent film and light blocking member, anisotropically etching the etching mask layer to leave the etching mask layer on the transparent film and along a peripheral edge of the light blocking member, and selectively etching the transparent film with the light blocking member and the remaining etching mask layer as a mask to form a phase member of the transparent film along the peripheral edge of the light blocking member.
