ABSTRACT:
A method of fabricating a semiconductor device according to one embodiment includes: forming a porous film above a semiconductor substrate; forming an altered layer by applying alteration treatment to a first pattern region of the porous film up to a predetermined depth; forming a first concave portion by etching a second pattern region to a depth deeper than the predetermined depth, the second pattern region at least partially overlapping the first pattern region of the porous film having the altered layer formed therein; and forming a second concave portion by selectively removing the altered layer from the porous film after forming the first concave portion.
