Abstract

See full text

A photomask and method for creating a protective layer on the photomask are disclosed. The method includes placing a photomask including a patterned layer formed on at least a portion of a substrate in a chamber. Oxygen is introduced into the chamber proximate the patterned layer and the photomask is exposed to radiant energy that initiates a reaction between the oxygen and the patterned layer in order to passivate the patterned layer and prevent optical properties of the patterned layer from being altered by a cleaning process.
