Abstract
A method for forming a dual damascene pattern includes preparing a multi-functional hard mask composition including a silicon resin as a base resin, wherein the silicon resin comprises about 20 to 45% silicon molecules by weight, based on a total weight of the resin; forming a deposition structure by sequentially forming a self-arrangement contact (SAC) insulating film, a first dielectric film, an etching barrier film, and a second dielectric film over a hardwiring layer; etching the deposition structure to expose the hardwiring layer, thereby forming a via hole; coating the multi-functional hard mask composition over the second dielectric film and in the via hole to form a multi-functional hard mask film; and etching the resulting structure to expose a part of the first dielectric film using a photoresist pattern as an etching mask, thereby forming a trench having a width greater than that of the via hole.
