Abstract
There are disclosed processes for forming fine patterns on a semiconductor substrate to a lesser degree than the resolving power of a step and repeat used, thereby improving the degree of integration of the semiconductor device. The process comprises the steps of: forming a first light-exposure mask and a second light-exposure mask with interlaced patterns selected from a plurality of fine patterns to be formed on a semiconductor substrate; coating an organic material layer on the semiconductor substrate; patterning the organic material layer by use of the first light-exposure mask, to form organic material layer patterns; forming a photosensitive film over the organic material layer patterns; and patterning the photosensitive film by use of the second light-exposure mask to form photosensitive film patterns, in such a way that each of photosensitive film patterns is interposed between two adjacent organic material layer patterns.
