Abstract

A method for fabricating a semiconductor device includes the steps of: providing a substrate having a high-voltage (HV) region and a low-voltage (LV) region; forming a base on the HV region and fin-shaped structures on the LV region; forming a first insulating around the fin-shaped structures; removing the base, the first insulating layer, and part of the fin-shaped structures to form a first trench in the HV region and a second trench in the LV region; forming a second insulating layer in the first trench and the second trench; and planarizing the second insulating layer to form a first shallow trench isolation (STI) on the HV region and a second STI on the LV region.
