Abstract

A method of forming a pattern includes forming an etch target layer on a substrate, forming sacrificial patterns on the etch target layer, the sacrificial patterns including a carbon-containing material, providing a silicon-sulfur compound or a sulfur-containing gas onto the sacrificial patterns to form a seed layer, providing a silicon precursor onto the seed layer to form silicon-containing mask patterns, and at least partially etching the etch target layer using the mask patterns.
