Zusammenfassung:Example embodiments of the present invention relate to methods of treating and removing a photoresist pattern and a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device using the same. Other example embodiments of the present invention relate to a method of treating a photoresist pattern and a method of removing a photoresist pattern formed using a photoresist composition suitable for argon fluoride (ArF). In a method of removing a photoresist pattern, an ozone vapor including a water vapor and an ozone gas may be provided onto the photoresist pattern to remove a hydrophobic group from a photoresist resin included in the photoresist pattern. A cleaning solution may be provided to make the photoresist pattern water-soluble. A cleaning process may be performed on the photoresist pattern to remove the photoresist pattern. The photoresist pattern may be effectively removed without an increased processing time and/or damage to a substrate.
