ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a method for fabricating a semiconductor device with a fine pattern even without decreasing a line width of a photoresist pattern. The method includes the steps of: forming a target etching layer on a substrate; forming a plurality of etch mask patterns with high pattern density in a first region and a low pattern density in a second region on the target etching layer; removing a native oxide layer grown on the target etching layer such that a line width of each etch mask pattern decreases in more extents in the second region than in the first region; and etching the target etching layer by using the plurality of etch mask patterns as a mask.
