Method of manufacturing semiconductor devices

摘要

After a silicon nitride film (2) is etched by using a first resist pattern (3A) as a mask before coating a second resist (4) superposing on the first resist pattern (3A), a surface layer portion of the first resist pattern (3A) is subjected to a plasma treatment by using oxygen (O2). A properties changed layer in the surface layer portion of the first resist pattern (3A) is removed or modified to improve the adhesion between the second resist (4) and the first resist pattern (3A), and the stripping of the second resist (4) is prevented.
