Abstract
In an electron beam lithographic method including a correction radiation step based on the ghost method, the entire correction region is divided into small regions, each having a size smaller than a spread of backscattering of an electron beam and larger than a minimum figure which can be drawn. Representative figures are set, as radiation unit figures in the respective small regions, to be smaller in number than the number of times of radiation to be performed when the desired patterns in the small regions are drawn as black/white-inverted patterns. Exposure dose are set for the representative figures in the respective small regions. The electron beam is defocused to increase a beam size to a size roughly coinciding with the spread of backscattering, and the representative figures in the respective small regions are drawn with the set exposure dose.
