ABSTRACT:
Methods are provided for etching during fabrication of a semiconductor device. The method includes initially etching to partially remove a portion of one or more lithographic-aiding layers overlying an oxide layer while etching a first portion of the oxide layer in accordance with a mask formed by the one or more lithographic-aiding layers, and thereafter additionally etching to remove remaining portions of the one or more lithographic-aiding layers while etching a remaining portion of the oxide layer.
