Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] In general terms, the present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device. More particularly, the present invention relates to a method of forming a pattern that can overcome resolution limitations of photolithography for fabricating semiconductor devices. Background technique
[0002] Recently, a double exposure method has been performed to form fine patterns of semiconductor devices in order to overcome resolution limitations of exposure equipment. This general method is described below.
[0003] Referring to FIGS. 1 a and 1 b , a bottom layer 12 , a first hard mask layer 13 , a first anti-reflection film 14 , and a first photoresist film 15 are sequentially formed on a semiconductor substrate 11 . A first region of the entire surface is exposed using a first exposure mask 16, and the exposed photoresist film 15 is developed to form a first photoresist pattern 15'. The hard mask layer 13 is usually a double layer composed...
