Zusammenfassung:A mask for extreme-UV lithography, of attenuated phase shift mask type, comprises a substrate (1), a reflecting structure (2) and attenuating and phase-shifting portions (3). An additional capping layer (4) covers at least sidewalls (SW) of the portions (3). It allows reducing a reflection of an incident beam of extreme-UV on the sidewalls of the portions, so that reflection peaks on opposite sides of each attenuating and phase-shifting portion are substantially identical. An additional protection function for the mask during cleaning processes is also provided by the capping layer.
