Abstract
A photomask blank for manufacturing a phase shift mask having a light-transmitting substrate provided with a phase shift part adapted to give a predetermined phase difference to transmitted exposure light. An etching mask film serving as an etching mask when forming a phase shift part is provided on the front surface side, where the phase shift part is to be formed, of the substrate. A light-shielding film serving to shield exposure light is provided on the back surface side (opposite-side surface) of the substrate.
