PURPOSE: Prevention of line bending and tilting for etching with a tri-layer mask is provided to remove a hard mask by selectively etching the hard mask in an organic mask and an etching layer. CONSTITUTION: A hard mask is used as an etching mask. An organic mask layer is etched(112). The hard mask is selectively etched in an organic mask and an etching layer. The hard mask is removed(116). Features are etched in the etching layer using the organic mask as an etching mask(120).
