Abstract:
A photomask blank which is manufactured by depositing a phase shift film on a substrate and irradiating the phase shift film with high-energy radiation to effect substrate shape adjusting treatment is inspected by measuring a surface topography of the photomask blank after the substrate shape adjusting treatment, removing the phase shift film from the photomask blank, measuring a surface topography of the treated substrate after removal of the phase shift film, and comparing the surface topographies, thereby evaluating a warpage change before and after removal of the phase shift film, due to a stress of the phase shift film having undergone substrate shape adjusting treatment.
