Methods used during the manufacture of a semiconductor device, such as one that includes forming a plurality of vertically oriented first support features. Each feature comprises first and second sidewalls and the first support features are formed to have a first pitch. A plurality of first mask spacers are formed, wherein one first mask spacer is formed on each first support feature sidewall, and each first mask spacer comprises an exposed, vertically oriented sidewall. A plurality of vertically oriented second support features are formed, wherein one second support feature is formed on the exposed, vertically oriented sidewall of each first mask spacer, and each second support feature is separated from an adjacent second support feature by a gap. A plurality of second mask features are formed, wherein one second mask feature is formed within each gap. The first and second support features are removed, and the first and second mask spacers are left to provide an etch pattern, wherein the first and second mask features have a second pitch. The first pitch is about three times the second pitch.
