Abstract

The present invention uses the thinned second pad oxide layer as the pad oxide layer for the subsequent shallow trench isolation process. Therefore, it is not necessary to remove the entire pad oxide layer on the substrate surface after the P-type high-voltage ion well thermal drive-in process. The subsequent step of re-growing the pad oxide layer is omitted, thereby simplifying the process complexity.
