Method for forming fine patterns of a semiconductor device

Abstract

A method of forming fine patterns in a semiconductor device includes forming narrow-width patterns in a first region and wide-width patterns in a second region, where the widths of the narrow-width patterns are smaller than the resolution limitations in a photolithography process used to make the semiconductor device. The first and second regions may comprise cell array regions, with memory cells in the first region and peripheral circuits for operating the memory cells in the second region. The semiconductor device can be, for example, a NAND FLASH memory device. The semiconductor memory device can be variously classified according to the type of memory cells to be integrated in the cell array region, e.g., a DRAM, an SRAM, a PRAM, a RRAM, an MRAM, and a FRAM. In other embodiments, a MEMS device, an optoelectronic device, or a processor, such as CPU or DSP, may be provided on the semiconductor substrate.
