Abstract
A method for fabricating a shallow trench isolation (STI) structure comprises the following steps. A silane-base precursor having a volumetric flowrate of 500 to 750 sccm and a nitrogen-base precursor having a volumetric flowrate of 300 to 600 sccm are introduced and mixed under a first pressure ranging from 0.5 to 1.5 torr at a first temperature ranging from 30 to 105 centigrade to deposit a flowable dielectric layer in a trench of a substrate. Then, ozone gas and oxygen gas are introduced and mixed under a second pressure ranging from 300 to 650 torr at a second temperature ranging from 50 to 250 centigrade to treat the flowable dielectric layer, wherein a volumetric flowrate ratio of ozone gas and oxygen gas ranges from 1:1 to 3:1. A method for fabricating a FinFET is provided.
