摘要:
In a method of forming a metal or metal nitride pattern, a metal or metal nitride layer is formed on a substrate, and a photoresist pattern is formed on the metal or metal nitride layer. An over-coating composition is coated on the metal or metal nitride layer and on the photoresist pattern to form a capping layer on the photoresist pattern. The over-coating composition includes a polymer having amine groups as a side chain or a branch and a solvent. A remaining portion of the over-coating composition is removed by washing with a hydrophilic solution. The metal or metal nitride layer is partially removed using the capping layer and the photoresist pattern as an etching mask.

Provided are a method of forming patterns and a method of manufacturing an integrated circuit device. In the method of forming patterns, a photoresist pattern having a first opening exposing a first region of a target layer is formed. A capping layer is formed at sidewalls of the photoresist pattern defining the first opening. An insoluble region is formed around the first opening by diffusing acid from the capping layer to the inside of the photoresist pattern. A second opening exposing a second region of the target layer is formed by removing a soluble region spaced apart from the first opening, with the insoluble region being interposed therebetween. The target layer is etched using the insoluble region as an etch mask.

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device includes forming a resist pattern on a first region on a substrate, bringing a descum solution including an acid source into contact with the resist pattern and with a second region of the substrate, decomposing resist residues remaining on the second region of the substrate by using acid obtained from the acid source in the descum solution and removing the decomposed resist residues and the descum solution from the substrate.

The present invention provides a double photolithography method in which, after a first photoresist pattern including a crosslinkable agent is formed on a semiconductor substrate, a crosslinkage is formed in a molecular structure of the first photoresist pattern. A second photoresist film may be formed on a surface of the semiconductor substrate on which the crosslinked first photoresist patterns are formed. Second photoresist patterns may be formed by exposing, post-exposure baking, and developing the second photoresist film.

Methods of forming fine patterns of a semiconductor device include forming a positive first photoresist layer on a semiconductor substrate, including initiating an exposure reaction at a first dose. The first photoresist layer is exposed and developed to form first photoresist patterns. A second photoresist layer is formed on a region of the semiconductor substrate including the first photoresist patterns, including terminating an exposure reaction at a second dose no greater than the first dose. The second photoresist layer is exposed and developed to form second photoresist patterns between the first photoresist patterns. Methods of forming fine patterns having a negative first photoresist layer are also provided.

In a method of fabricating patterns in an integrated circuit device, first mask patterns, sacrificial patterns, and second mask patterns are formed on a target layer such that the sacrificial patterns are provided between sidewalls of adjacent ones of the first and second mask patterns. The sacrificial patterns between the sidewalls of the adjacent ones of the first and second mask patterns are selectively removed using a dry etch-back process, and the target layer is patterned using the first and second mask patterns as a mask.

A method of forming fine patterns of a semiconductor device according to a double patterning process that uses acid diffusion is provided. In this method, a plurality of first mask patterns are formed on a substrate so as to be separated from one another. A capping film including an acid source is formed on sidewalls and an upper surface of each of the plurality of first mask patterns. A second mask layer is formed on the capping films. A plurality of acid diffused regions are formed within the second mask layer by diffusing acid obtained from the acid source from the capping films into the second mask layer. A plurality of second mask patterns are formed of residual parts of the second mask layer which remain in the first spaces after removing the acid diffused regions of the second mask layer.

Provided are a nonvolatile memory device and a method of manufacturing the same. A floating gate electrode of the nonvolatile memory device may have a cross-shaped section as taken along a direction extending along a control gate electrode. The floating gate electrode may have an inverse T-shaped section as taken along a direction extending along an active region perpendicular to the control gate electrode. The floating gate electrode may include a lower gate pattern, a middle gate pattern and an upper gate pattern sequentially disposed on a gate insulation layer, in which the middle gate pattern is larger in width than the lower gate pattern and the upper gate pattern. A boundary between the middle gate pattern and the upper gate pattern may have a rounded corner.
摘要:
A fine pattern is formed in an integrated circuit substrate, by forming a sacrificial pattern on the integrated circuit substrate. The sacrificial pattern includes tops and side walls. Atomic layer deposition is then performed to atomic layer deposit a mask material layer on the sacrificial pattern, including on the tops and the side walls thereof, and on the integrated circuit substrate therebetween. The mask material layer that was atomic layer deposited is then etched, to expose the top and the integrated circuit therebetween, such that a mask material pattern remains on the side walls. The sacrificial pattern is then removed, and the integrated circuit substrate is then etched through the mask material pattern that remains.
