A method for fabricating a semiconductor device and a semiconductor formed by this method, the method including, the steps of sequentially forming a pad oxide film, a polysilicon film, and an antioxidation film on an active region of a semiconductor substrate such that a field region is exposed; etching an exposed portion of the surface of the substrate to a predetermined thickness to form a trench within the substrate; forming a first insulation film along the inner face of the trench by using an oxidation process; forming a stress buffer film on the entire surface of the resultant structure; forming a second insulation film on the stress buffer film such that the trench is sufficiently filled; making the second insulation film planar such that the remaining antioxidation film has a predetermined thickness on the active region of the substrate so as to form a shallow trench isolation within the trench; and sequentially removing the remaining antioxidation film, the polysilicon film, and the pad oxide film.
