Zusammenfassung:A method of forming a semiconductor device is provided. A hollowed portion is formed over an active region of a semiconductor substrate. The bottom of the hollowed portion is lowered in level than the surface of an isolation region of the substrate. A first mask is formed in the hollowed portion, except on a side region that is adjacent to the boundary between the active region and the isolation region. A trench is formed in the side region of the active region by using the first mask and the isolation region as a mask.
