ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a method for fabricating a semiconductor device by using an amorphous carbon layer as a sacrificial hard mask. The method includes the steps of: forming an amorphous carbon layer on an etch target layer; forming a photoresist pattern on the amorphous carbon layer; etching the amorphous carbon layer by using the photoresist pattern to form a sacrificial hard mask; and etching the etch target layer by using the sacrificial hard mask to form a predetermined pattern.
