Semiconductor device and method of fabricating the same

Abstract

A method of fabricating a semiconductor device, including: forming a first well of a second conduction type and a second well of a first conduction type on a semiconductor substrate of the first conduction type, forming a gate oxide corresponding to each element on a surface of the semiconductor substrate, forming trenches by etching at forming locations of first and second trench isolating regions respectively at a first depth larger than a depth of a diffusion layer formed in a memory-cell forming region within the second well and smaller than a depth of a diffusion layer of a transistor of a peripheral circuit region, executing additional etching at a forming location of the second trench isolating region so that a second depth larger than the first depth is obtained and doping the trenches at the forming locations of the first and second trench isolating regions respectively, with a doping agent, thereby executing a planarization process.
