Abstract

A method for fabricating semiconductor device includes the steps of: forming a fin-shaped structure on a substrate; forming a shallow trench isolation (STI) around the fin-shaped structure; removing part of the fin-shaped structure and part of the STI to form a first trench and removing part of the STI adjacent to the fin-shaped structure to form a second trench; and forming a dielectric layer into the first trench and the second trench to form a first single diffusion break (SDB) and a second single diffusion break.
