Abstract
The present invention relates to a method of forming micro patterns of a semiconductor device. In the method according to an aspect of the present invention, first etch mask patterns having a second pitch, which is twice larger than a first pitch of target patterns, are formed in a column direction over a semiconductor substrate. An auxiliary film is formed over the semiconductor substrate including a surface of the first etch mask patterns. An etch mask film is formed over the semiconductor substrate including the auxiliary film. An etch process is performed in order to form second etch mask patterns having the second pitch in such a manner that the etch mask film, the auxiliary film, and the first etch mask patterns are isolated from one another in a row direction and the etch mask film remains between the first etch mask patterns. The auxiliary film between the first and second etch mask patterns is removed.
