ABSTRACT:
There is provided a laminate used as an underlayer layer for a photoresist in a lithography process of a semiconductor device and a method for manufacturing a semiconductor device by using the laminate. The method comprising: laminating each layer of an organic underlayer film (layer A), a silicon-containing hard mask (layer B), an organic antireflective film (layer C) and a photoresist film (layer D) in this order on a semiconductor substrate. The method also comprises: forming a resist pattern in the photoresist film (layer D); etching the organic antireflective film (layer C) with the resist pattern; etching the silicon-containing hard mask (layer B) with the patterned organic antireflective film (layer C); etching the organic underlayer film (layer A) with the patterned silicon-containing hard mask (layer B); and processing the semiconductor substrate with the patterned organic underlayer film (layer A).
