Abstract

A method of fabricating a semiconductor device includes providing a substrate including a first region and a second region, forming a first trench having a first width in the first region and a second trench having a second width in the second region, and the second width is greater than the first width. The method also includes forming a first insulation layer in the first and second trenches, removing the first insulation layer in the second trench to form a first insulation pattern that includes the first insulation layer remaining in the first trench, forming on the substrate a second insulation layer that fills the second trench, and the second insulation layer includes a different material from the first insulation layer.
