Abstract

A method for fabricating semiconductor device is disclosed. The method includes the steps of: providing a substrate; forming a fin-shaped structure on the substrate; performing a first etching process to remove part of the fin-shaped structure for forming a trench; and performing a second etching process to extend the depth of the trench and divide the fin-shaped structure into a first portion and a second portion.
