Patent ID: 8293651

Claim:
A method of forming a thin film pattern, comprising: forming a thin film on a substrate; forming an amorphous carbon layer including first and second carbon layers on the thin film, wherein the first carbon layer is formed by one of a spin-on method and a plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) method and the second carbon layer is formed by a physical vapor deposition (PVD) method; forming a hard mask layer on the amorphous carbon layer; forming a PR pattern on the hard mask layer; forming a hard mask pattern by etching the hard mask layer using the PR pattern as an etch mask; forming an amorphous carbon pattern including first and second carbon patterns by etching the amorphous carbon layer using the hard mask pattern as an etch mask; and forming a thin film pattern by etching the thin film using the amorphous carbon pattern, wherein the hard mask pattern is removed after the amorphous carbon pattern is formed but before the thin film pattern is formed.
