Abstract
Microlithography masks are disclosed, such as those that include one or more image reversal assist features disposed between at least two primary mask features. The one or more image reversal assist features may be defined by a patterned relatively non-transparent material on a mask substrate. Microlithography systems include such masks. Methods of forming microlithography masks are also disclosed, such as those that include patterning a relatively non-transparent material on a mask substrate to form at least one image reversal assist feature located between at least two primary features.
