In a method of forming a semiconductor device, a feature layer is provided on a substrate and a mask layer is provided on the feature layer. A portion of the mask layer is removed in a first region of the semiconductor device where fine features of the feature layer are to be located, the mask layer remaining in a second region of the semiconductor device where broad features of the feature layer are to be located. A mold mask pattern is provided on the feature layer in the first region and on the mask layer in the second region. A spacer layer is provided on the mold mask pattern in the first region and in the second region. An etching process is performed to etch the spacer layer so that spacers remain at sidewalls of pattern features of the mold mask pattern, and to etch the mask layer in the second region to provide mask layer patterns in the second region. The feature layer is etched using the mask layer patterns as an etch mask in the second region and using the spacers as an etch mask in the first region to provide a feature layer pattern having fine features in the first region and broad features in the second region.

A user interface apparatus comprises a plurality of key buttons, and a plurality of touchpad pieces, each located under an associated key button and situated such that a touch of an associated key button can be sensed. When a user touches predetermined key buttons among the plurality of key buttons such that the key buttons contact their associated touchpad pieces in a state where a menu screen is displayed, the predetermined key buttons serve as navigation key buttons for changing a menu screen between main menus or shifting a highlight between submenus. Upon detecting a touch-drag for a plurality of key buttons in a menu mode, menu items displayed on the menu screen are sorted or highlight-scrolled according to a predetermined condition for the touch-dragged key button group.

Provided is a method of forming patterns for a semiconductor device in which fine patterns and large-width patterns are formed simultaneously and adjacent to each other. In the method, a first layer is formed on a substrate so as to cover a first region and a second region which are included in the substrate. Both a blocking pattern covering a portion of the first layer in the first region and a low-density large-width pattern covering a portion of the first layer in the second region are simultaneously formed. A plurality of sacrificial mask patterns are formed on the first layer and the blocking pattern in the first region. A plurality of spacers covering exposed sidewalls of the plurality of sacrificial mask patterns are formed. The plurality of sacrificial mask patterns are removed. The first layer in the first and second regions are simultaneously etched by using the plurality of spacers and the blocking pattern as etch masks in the first region and using the low-density large-width pattern as an etch mask in the second region.

A method of fabricating an integrated circuit device includes forming first and second mask structures on respective first and second regions of a feature layer. Each of the first and second mask structures includes a dual mask pattern and an etch mask pattern thereon having an etch selectivity relative to the dual mask pattern. The etch mask patterns of the first and second mask structures are isotropically etched to remove the etch mask pattern from the first mask structure while maintaining at least a portion of the etch mask pattern on the second mask structure. Spacers are formed on opposing sidewalls of the first and second mask structures. The first mask structure is selectively removed from between the spacers in the first region using the portion of the etch mask pattern on the second mask structure as a mask to define a first mask pattern including the opposing sidewall spacers with a void therebetween in the first region, and a second mask pattern including the opposing sidewall spacers with the second mask structure therebetween in the second region. The feature layer may be patterned using the first mask pattern as a mask to define a first feature on the first region, and using the second mask pattern as a mask to define a second feature on the second region having a greater width than the first feature.
