A floating gate fabrication method is disclosed. The method includes: providing a substrate, and depositing an oxide layer on the substrate; fabricating a shallow trench isolation in the substrate, a top surface of the shallow trench isolation being higher than a top surface of the oxide layer; depositing a polysilicon layer on the oxide layer and the shallow trench isolation; performing a first thermal annealing process on the polysilicon layer, thereby repairing cavities formed after the deposition of the polysilicon layer; implanting ions into the polysilicon layer; performing a second thermal annealing process on the polysilicon layer, thereby activating the implanted ions and repairing again the cavities formed after the deposition of the polysilicon layer; and planarizing the polysilicon layer to form a floating gate.
