ABSTRACT:
In a method for manufacturing a nonvolatile memory device, an etch mask layer formed on a dielectric layer to define contact holes in the dielectric layer is slope-etched to form an etch mask pattern having an opening wider at the upper end thereof than the lower end thereof. Thus, the contact holes are defined in the dielectric layer to have a finer size than the upper end of the opening of the etch mask pattern. The method for manufacturing a nonvolatile memory device includes forming an etch mask pattern on a dielectric layer such that a width of a lower end of each opening defined in the etch mask pattern is less than a width of an upper end thereof; and defining contact holes by removing portions of the dielectric layer using the etch mask pattern.
