A method for forming a pattern of a semiconductor device is disclosed which can increase the contact area between a photoresist and an anti-reflective film by performing an etching process on the anti-reflective film in a process of forming a photoresist pattern for a semiconductor device so as to form fine irregularities, thereby preventing collapse of a photoresist pattern. The disclosed method includes: (a) forming an organic anti-reflective film by coating an organic anti-reflective coating composition onto an upper portion of a layer to be etched, and performing a baking process thereto; (b) forming fine irregularities on the organic anti-reflective film by performing an etching process on the formed organic anti-reflective film; and (c) forming a photoresist pattern by coating a photoresist on the upper portion of the organic anti-reflective film, exposing the photoresist and then developing the same.

Method for forming patterns in a semiconductor device

Disclosed are an organic anti-reflective coating polymer having a structure represented by the following formula I, its preparation method and an organic anti-reflective coating composition with respect to an ultra-fine pattern formation process of the photoresist for photolithography technique using ArF light source with a wavelength of 193 nm or VUV light source with a wavelength of 157 nm. An organic anti-reflective coating polymer capable of protecting a photoresist from amines in the atmosphere to minimize the post exposure delay effect after exposure to light and, at the same time, enhances notching status, such as, a pattern distortion caused by diffused reflection, and reducing reflection rate to minimize the swing effect. wherein m is an integer ranging from 5 to 5000.
