Abstract

Methods of forming an integrated circuit device may include forming a resist pattern on a layer of an integrated circuit device with portions of the layer being exposed through openings of the resist pattern. An organic-inorganic hybrid siloxane network film may be formed on the resist pattern. Portions of the layer exposed through the resist pattern and the organic-inorganic hybrid siloxane network film may then be removed. Related structures are also discussed.
