Abstract
A method of forming fine patterns includes forming a partition on a base layer. The partition includes a partition block, a first open region provided to face the partition block, and first lines extending from the partition block to the first open region. A spacer is formed on sidewalls of the partition to define a second open region overlapping with the first open region and to include second lines on sidewalls of the first lines. The partition may be removed to open a third open region occupied by the partition block and spaces between the second lines. A target pattern is formed to include third lines filling the spaces between the second lines, a first pad block filling the second open region, and a second pad block filling the third open region. Each of the first and second pad blocks is separated into a plurality of pads.
