ABSTRACT:
A method for fabricating an isolation layer in a semiconductor device, includes the steps of forming a pad oxide layer on a substrate and sequentially forming a first thin nitride layer, a polysilicon layer and a second nitride layer on the pad oxide layer; selectively and sequentially dry-etching the second nitride layer, polysilicon layer, first nitride layer and pad oxide layer to expose a portion of the substrate corresponding to a field region and to form an active region pattern; growing an oxide layer on the exposed portion of the substrate in the field region; carrying out nitridation onto the polysilicon layer to form a nitride layer on the side of the active region pattern; and performing field oxidation to form a field oxide layer in the field region.
