ABSTRACT:
A method for reducing a critical dimension of a photoresist pattern while improving a line spacing between distal end portions of pattern lines wherein the method includes providing a substrate including an overlying resist; exposing the resist to an activating light source; baking the resist in a first baking process followed by developing the resist in a first development process to form a first resist pattern; then baking the first resist pattern in a second baking process followed by developing the first resist pattern in a second development process to form a second resist pattern having reduced dimensions; and, then dry trimming the second resist pattern to form a final resist pattern with reduced dimensions compared to the second resist pattern.
