A method for fabricating a semiconductor device is provided. The method for fabricating the semiconductor device includes forming an interlayer insulating layer that comprises a first region and a second region, forming an etch stop pattern for exposing the second region in the first region of the interlayer insulating layer and forming a mask pattern that comprises a first via-hole that exposes an upper surface of the etch stop pattern and a second via-hole that penetrates the interlayer insulating layer on the interlayer insulating layer and the etch stop pattern.

A semiconductor device includes a logic region disposed in a central region of the semiconductor device, and a peripheral region disposed in an outer region thereof. The logic region includes a line-shaped logic transistor and a box-shaped decoupling capacitor. The peripheral region includes a line-shaped peripheral transistor and a line-shaped peripheral dummy transistor disposed adjacent to the peripheral transistor.

A method of detecting focus shift in a lithography process, a method of analyzing an error of a transferred pattern using the same, and a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device using the methods are provided. The focus shift detecting method of a lithography process comprises generating a first contour band of a mask pattern between a first focus and a second focus, generating a second contour of the mask pattern between the first focus and a third focus, and determining whether focus shift of the mask pattern occurs using an intersection of the first contour band and the second contour band.

A mask for photolithography and methods of manufacturing a mask and a semiconductor device are provided. The method of manufacturing a mask may comprise providing a substrate, forming a phase shift material layer on the substrate, forming a light blocking layer on the phase shift material layer, and forming a main pattern and a sub pattern on the substrate by patterning the phase shift material layer and the light blocking layer. The light blocking layer may be removed on the main pattern left on the light blocking layer remaining on the sub pattern. A semiconductor device may be manufactured using the mask to form a photoresist pattern on a semiconductor wafer. The pattern of the photoresist may be used to etch an object layer of the semiconductor wafer.
