1. A method of processing a substrate, comprising:
forming a photosensitive layer on the substrate;
performing a first exposure process to expose the photosensitive layer to actinic radiation through a first mask, wherein the first mask has a plurality of first opaque portions;
performing a first developing process to remove portions of the photosensitive layer exposed to the actinic radiation and form an intermediate pattern;
performing a second exposure process to expose the intermediate pattern to the actinic radiation through a second mask, wherein the second mask has a plurality of second opaque portions;
performing a second developing process to remove portions of the intermediate pattern shielded from the actinic radiation and form a target pattern; and
performing an etching process to remove portions of the substrate exposed through the target pattern;
wherein during the second exposure process, an alignment of the second mask is set at a position that centers of the plurality of second opaque portions of the second mask are aligned with centers of the plurality of first opaque portions.

10. A method of processing a substrate, comprising:
forming the sacrificial layer on the substrate;
forming a photosensitive layer on the sacrificial layer;
performing a first lithographing process to remove portions of the photosensitive layer exposed to actinic radiation and form an intermediate pattern on the sacrificial layer;
performing a second lithographing process to remove portions of the intermediate pattern shielded from the actinic radiation and form a target pattern on the sacrificial layer; and
etching through the target pattern to remove portions of the substrate and to remove portions of the sacrificial layer in order to form openings in the sacrificial layer.
