In a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, a mask layer and a first layer may be sequentially formed on a substrate. The first layer may be patterned by a photolithography process to form a first pattern. A silicon oxide layer may be formed on the first pattern. A coating pattern including silicon may be formed on the silicon oxide layer. The mask layer may be etched using a second pattern as an etching mask to form a mask pattern, and the second pattern may includes the first pattern, the silicon oxide layer and the coating pattern. The mask pattern may have a uniform size.

Methods of manufacturing semiconductor devices

A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, including forming an etching target film on a substrate; forming an anti-reflection film on the etching target film; forming a photoresist film on the anti-reflection film; exposing the photoresist film; performing heat treatment on the anti-reflection film and the photoresist film to form a covalent bond between the anti-reflection film and the photoresist film; and developing the photoresist film.

Method of forming micropatterns

In a method of forming a hole, an insulation layer is formed on a substrate, and a preliminary hole exposing the substrate is formed through the insulation layer. A photosensitive layer pattern including an organic polymer is then formed on the substrate to fill the preliminary hole. An etching gas including hydrogen fluoride (HF) or fluorine (F) is then provided onto the photosensitive layer pattern to etch the insulation layer so that width of the preliminary hole is increased.
