Abstract
A method of forming an isolating trench device in a semiconductor device comprising the steps of; sequentially forming a first material layer and a second material layer over a surface of a semiconductor substrate, exposing a portion of the semiconductor substrate in which a device isolation region is to be formed by selectively etching the first and second material layers, forming side wall spacers on exposed lateral sidewalls of the first and second material layers, forming a trench by etching the exposed portion of the semiconductor substrate using the side wall spacers as a mask, depositing an insulating film having an underlayer dependency characteristic over the surface of the resulting structure, etching the surface of the insulating film, and removing the first and second material layers.
