Abstract: A method of forming a contact hole of a semiconductor device that is able to prevent excessive etching of an interlayer dielectric pattern includes forming a gate pattern including a first insulation layer pattern, a conductive layer pattern, a capping insulation layer pattern, and a second insulation layer pattern on a substrate; forming a spacer using an insulating material on a sidewall of the gate pattern; forming an interlayer dielectric on the substrate on which the gate pattern and the spacer are formed; forming a contact hole and an interlayer dielectric pattern for exposing the substrate by etching the interlayer dielectric; forming a liner spacer on a sidewall of the spacer and the interlayer dielectric pattern; and cleaning the resultant structure using a cleaning solution. The cleaning solution preferably includes includes ozone water and hydrogen fluoride (HF).
