Abstract
A method for preparing a semiconductor device structure with features at different levels. The method includes forming a target layer over a semiconductor substrate; forming a plurality of first energy-sensitive patterns over the target layer; performing an energy treating process to transform at least a portion of each of the first energy-sensitive patterns into a first treated portion; forming a lining layer conformally covering the first energy-sensitive patterns, wherein a first opening is formed over the lining layer and between the first energy-sensitive patterns; filling the first opening with a second energy-sensitive pattern; and performing an etching process to form a plurality of second openings and a third opening in the target layer, wherein the third opening is between the second openings, and the second openings and the third opening have different depths.
