Abstract:
Methods of forming integrated circuits and multiple CD SADP processes are provided that include providing a patternable structure including a first hard mask layer and a first patternable layer underlying the first hard mask layer. Mandrels are provided over the first hard mask layer. Sidewall spacers are formed adjacent sidewalls of the mandrels. The mandrels are removed, with the sidewall spacers remaining and defining gaps therebetween. The first hard mask layer is etched through the gaps to form a first patterned hard mask feature and a second patterned hard mask feature. A critical dimension of the first patterned hard mask feature is selectively modified to form a biased hard mask feature. A space is defined between sidewalls of the biased hard mask feature and the second patterned hard mask feature. The first patternable layer is etched through exposed material in the space.
