Abstract
In a method of fabricating a mask for a semiconductor device, a phase shift layer and a light blocking layer are formed on a transparent substrate. The light blocking layer is patterned to form light blocking patterns which partially expose a surface of the phase shift layer. An extension defect or a bridge defect is detected. A photoresist layer, which does not react to light, is formed on a resulting structure including the detected defect. The extension defect is removed by performing a repair process on the light blocking patterns. The bridge defect is removed by etching using the light blocking patterns as a mask.
