Abstract

A method of forming a semiconductor device on a substrate including the steps of: forming a first recess in the substrate; depositing an insulator in the first recess so that an isolation region is formed when the first recess is filled with the insulator; forming a second recess in a predetermined area of the substrate; forming a recess insulation layer on the surface of the second recess; depositing a conductive material on the recess insulation layer and in the second recess so that a gate region is formed when the second recess is filled with the conductive material; removing a sufficient amount of the insulator and the conductive material so that the top surfaces of the insulator, the conductive material and the substrate are substantially at the same level.
