Abstract
The instant disclosure relates to a method of forming an isolation area. The method includes the steps of: providing a substrate having a first type of ion dopants, where the substrate has a plurality of trenches formed on the cell areas and the isolation area between the cell areas of the substrate, with the side walls of the trenches having an oxidation layer formed thereon and the trenches are filled with a metallic structure; removing the metallic structure from the trenches of the isolation area; implanting a second type of ions into the substrate under the trenches of the isolation area; and filling all the trenches with an insulating structure, where the trenches of the isolation area are filled up fully by the insulating structure to form a non-metallic isolation area.
