Abstract:
A micro-pattern forming method for a semiconductor device having a first pitch size of &agr;+&bgr;, the method comprising the following steps of:sequentially forming first and second insulation films on a semiconductor substrate; forming a photosensitive film in a proper configuration on the second insulation film, the photosensitive film having a second pitch size which is twice the first pitch size of &agr;+&bgr;; dry etching the second insulation film using the photosensitive film as a mask; removing the photosensitive film; forming a third insulation film on an entire surface of the substrate including remaining portions of the second insulation film; forming a fourth insulation film on a resultant structure in portions corresponding to those between the remaining portions of the second insulation film; etching the third and fourth insulation films using a proper formal solution, whereby the third insulation film has a dry etching selectivity of 1 to 1 in respect to the fourth insulation film, to first flatten the fourth insulation film until the second insulation film is exposed; etching the third insulation film using the fourth and second insulation films as masks to form a third insulation film pattern; and filling a conductive film into spaces between the second and third insulation films and second flattening the conductive film to form conductive lines having a pitch size of &agr;+&bgr;.
