ABSTRACT:
For integrated circuit fabrication, at least one spacer support structure is formed in a first area over a semiconductor substrate, and a mask material is deposited on exposed surfaces of the spacer support structure and on a second area over the semiconductor substrate. A masking structure is formed on a portion of the mask material in the second area, and the mask material is patterned to form spacers on sidewalls of the spacer support structure and to form a mask pattern under the masking structure. The spacer support structure and the masking structure are comprised of respective high carbon content materials that have been spin-coated and have substantially a same etch selectivity.
