Abstract

See full text

A method includes following steps. A target layer is formed over a substrate. A first hard mask layer is formed over the target layer by a plasma generated using a first radio frequency generator and a second radio frequency generator. The first radio frequency generator and the second radio frequency generator have different powers. A second hard mask layer is formed over the first hard mask layer by a plasma generated using the first radio frequency generator without using the second radio frequency generator. A photoresist layer is formed over the second hard mask layer. The photoresist layer is exposed. The photoresist layer is developed. The first hard mask layer and the second hard mask layer are patterned using the photoresist layer as an etch mask. The target layer is patterned using the first hard mask layer and the second hard mask layer as an etch mask.
