摘要:
In a method of forming patterns, an object layer is formed on a substrate. Guide patterns are formed on the object layer. A brush layer is formed using a brush polymer on surfaces of the guide patterns. The brush polymer includes at least one of a first brush polymer and a second brush polymer. The first brush polymer includes a hydrophobic repeating unit and a hydrophilic terminal group having at least two hydroxyl groups. The second brush polymer includes a hydrophobic repeating unit and a hydrophilic random repeating unit having a hydroxyl group. A self-aligned layer is formed using a block copolymer on the brush layer to form blocks aligned around the guide patterns. At least a portion of the blocks is transferred to the object layer.

A method of forming patterns of a semiconductor device may include forming a photoresist layer that includes a photo acid generator (PAG) and a photo base generator (PBG), generating an acid from the PAG in a first exposed portion of the photoresist layer by first-exposing the photoresist layer, and generating a base from the PBG in a second exposed portion of the photoresist layer by second-exposing a part of the first exposed portion and neutralizing the acid. The method may also include baking the photoresist layer after the first and second-exposing and deblocking the photoresist layer of the first exposed portion in which the acid is generated to form a deblocked photoresist layer, and forming a photoresist pattern by removing the deblocked photoresist layer by using a developer.

Methods of forming a pattern of a semiconductor device including performing a double patterning process without using an atomic layer deposition (ALD) oxide film are provided. The methods may include forming a mask pattern on a substrate; forming a chemical attach process (CAP) material layer covering at least a portion of the mask pattern; forming a CAP adhesive layer by adhering at least a portion of the CAP material layer to the mask pattern by using a first baking process and a first development process; forming an interlayer covering at least a portion of the mask pattern and the CAP adhesive layer; and removing the mask pattern and the interlayer while allowing the CAP adhesive layer to remain by using a second baking process and a second development process.
摘要:
Methods of forming a photoresist pattern include forming a first photoresist pattern on a substrate and treating the first photoresist pattern with plasma that modifies etching characteristics of the first photoresist pattern. This modification may include making the first photoresist pattern more susceptible to removal during subsequent processing. The plasma-treated first photoresist pattern is covered with a second photoresist layer, which is patterned into a second photoresist pattern that contacts sidewalls of the plasma-treated first photoresist pattern. The plasma-treated first photoresist pattern is selectively removed from the substrate to reveal the remaining second photoresist pattern. The second photoresist pattern is used as an etching mask during the selective etching of a portion of the substrate (e.g., target layer). The use of the second photoresist pattern as an etching mask may yield narrower linewidths in the etched portion of the substrate than are achievable using the first photoresist pattern alone.

Lower electrode contact structures and methods of forming the same provide an interface having a large surface area between a lower electrode and the underlying layers. The lower electrode is in contact with a contact plug and an insulation layer in which the contact plug is buried. At least one supporting layer protrudes upright along the outer peripheral edge of the top surface of the contact plug. The interface between the lower electrode and the underlying layers is thus increased by the supporting layer(s) so that the lower electrode and the underlying layers will solidly adhere to each other.

Embodiments of the invention provide a semiconductor memory device and a method for fabricating the semiconductor memory device. The semiconductor memory device comprises a source region and a drain region disposed in a semiconductor substrate; a buried contact disposed on and electrically connected to the source region of the transistor; and a direct contact disposed on and electrically connected to the drain region of the transistor, wherein an upper surface of the direct contact is disposed at a different height than an upper surface of the buried contact. The semiconductor memory device further comprises a bit line disposed on and electrically connected to the direct contact and thereby electrically connected to the drain region; and a lower electrode of a capacitor disposed on and electrically connected to the buried contact and thereby electrically connected to the source region.

A semiconductor device having a buffer layer pattern and a related method of manufacture are disclosed. The semiconductor device comprises at least two bit line patterns formed on a semiconductor substrate having a buried insulating interlayer. Each bit line pattern is formed of a bit line and a bit line capping layer pattern formed on the bit line. A buffer layer pattern is formed to cover one of the bit line patterns, and bit line spacers are formed on sidewalls of the remaining bit line patterns. A planarized insulating interlayer covers the buffer layer pattern and the bit line spacers. A bit line contact hole passing through the planarized insulating interlayer, the buffer layer pattern, and the bit line capping layer pattern, is formed on the bit line.

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device using a photolithography process may include forming an anti-reflective layer and a first photoresist film on a lower surface. The first photoresist film may be exposed to light and a first photoresist pattern having a first opening may be formed by developing the first photoresist film. A plasma treatment can be performed on the first photoresist pattern and a second photoresist film may be formed on the first photoresist pattern, which may be exposed to light. A second photoresist pattern may be formed to have a second opening by developing the second photoresist film. Here, the second opening may be substantially narrower than the first opening.
