A method for fabricating a semiconductor device. A shallow trench isolation is formed by forming a well region, a gate oxide layer and a wiring layer prior to forming a trench in the substrate. The trench is then filled with silicon oxide layer doped with germanium, nitrogen, titanium or other refractory metal. In addition, a MOS device is also fabricated with a gate buried in the substrate with a shallow trench isolation filled with the doped silicon oxide layer formed therein. |
