    摘要: A method of forming hard mask employs a double patterning technique. A first hard mask layer is formed on a substrate, and a first sacrificial pattern is formed on the first hard mask layer by photolithography. Features of the first sacrificial pattern are spaced from one another by a first pitch. A second hard mask layer is then formed conformally on the first sacrificial pattern and the first hard mask layer so as to delimit recesses between adjacent features of the first sacrificial pattern. Upper portions of the second hard mask layer are removed to expose the first sacrificial pattern, and the exposed first sacrificial pattern and the second sacrificial pattern are removed. The second hard mask layer and the first hard mask layer are then etched to form a hard mask composed of residual portions of the first hard mask layer and the second hard mask layer. A fine pattern of a semiconductor device, such as a trench isolation region or a pattern of contact holes, can be formed using the hard mask as an etch mask.

    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.

    摘要: A method of manufacturing a mask includes designing a first mask data pattern, designing a second mask data pattern for forming the first mask data pattern, acquiring a first emulation pattern, which is predicted from the second mask data pattern, using layout-based Self-Aligning Double Patterning (SADP) emulation, comparing the first emulation pattern with the first mask data pattern, and modifying the second mask data pattern according to results of the comparison. The method further includes performing Optical Proximity Correction (OPC) on the modified second mask data pattern, acquiring second emulation patterns, which are predicted from the second mask data pattern on which the OPC has been performed, using image-based SADP emulation, and comparing the second emulation patterns and the first mask data pattern and manufacturing a first mask layer, which corresponds to the second mask data pattern on which the OPC has been performed, according to the results of the comparison.
