1. A method for forming fine patterns in a semiconductor device, the method comprising:

  • forming a hard mask layer over an etch target layer;

    forming a plurality of first patterns with a predetermined width and space over the hard mask layer;

    reducing size of the first patterns;

    forming first spacers on side walls of the first patterns and removing the first patterns;

    patterning the hard mask layer using the first spacers as mask to form a hard mask patterns and removing the first spacers;

    oxidating surfaces of the hard mask patterns;

    removing the oxidated portion over the surfaces of the hard mask patterns;

    forming second spacers on side walls of the hard mask patterns and removing the hard mask patterns; and

    ,patterning the etch target layer using the second spacers as mask.
