Abstract

The present disclosure discloses a semiconductor device manufacturing method and a semiconductor device, relating to the technical field of semiconductors. The method includes: providing a semiconductor substrate, the semiconductor substrate comprising a shallow trench and active areas; forming an oxygen-containing layer on exposed outer surfaces of the shallow trench and the active areas; filling a first isolation layer of a set height in the shallow trench comprising the oxygen-containing layer on its surface, the set height being lower than heights of the active areas; forming an etch stop layer on an upper surface of the first isolation layer; filling a second isolation layer on the etch stop layer in the shallow trench to form a shallow trench isolation (STI) structure; and etching the active areas and the STI structure to form wordline trenches, the bottoms of the wordline trenches in the STI structure are higher than the set height.
