A recessed part 5P having a taper type undercut part 5 on an Si substrate is formed by isotropic etching via an aperture 4 penetrating an Si3N4 film 2 and a first SiO2 film 3. A trench 6 is formed under the recessed part 5P by anisotropic dry etching. A second SiO2 film 7 is formed in the inner surfaces of the recessed part 5P and the trench 6. An Si layer 8 is vapor deposited on the substrate so as to completely fill the recessed part 5P and the trench 6. The Si layer 8 on the first SiO2 film 3, the first SiO2 film 3, and the Si layer 8 on the Si3N4 film 2 in the aperture 4 are eliminated in order. A third SiO2 film 9 is formed on the surface of the Si layer 8 by selective oxidation.

However, according to the above-mentioned conventional method, since the corner portion 60 of the semiconductor substrate 51 in which the trench 56 is opened is formed substantially at a right angle as is clear from the figure, this trench-shaped element is formed. When a wiring having a high potential difference with the substrate 51 crosses over the inter-isolation region, electric field concentration occurs in the corner portion 60 to easily cause current leakage between the wiring and the substrate, and the trench width becomes extremely narrow and If the regions on both sides of the trench have a high potential difference, there is a problem that leakage occurs between elements. Furthermore, since the third SiO 2 film 58 formed by thermal oxidation is formed on the entire surface of the opening surface of the trench 56 on the surface of the polysilicon layer 57 embedded in the trench 56, the trench 56 is opened at that time. A strong compressive stress is exerted on the corners 60 formed at substantially right angles of the semiconductor substrate 51,
There is also a problem that a defect is generated in this corner portion and an element leak is generated through this defect.

It Therefore, the electric field concentration at the corners of the substrate is relaxed,
Leakage between the wiring and the substrate and between the elements that occurs through the portion is prevented. Further, the thermal oxide film (corresponding to the third SiO 2 film 58 in the conventional method) formed on the surface of the polysilicon layer buried in the trench is formed only in the central region of the polysilicon layer while leaving the polysilicon layer in the peripheral portion.

Therefore, the electric field concentration at the corner portion 10 of the substrate 1 is relaxed, so that the current leakage between the wiring and the substrate having a high potential difference with the substrate and the leakage between the elements through this portion are prevented.
Further, as described above, the corner portion 10 of the silicon substrate 1 around the trench opening has a gentle obtuse shape, and at the same time, the tapered enlarged portion 5 of the trench 6 opening is covered with the Si 3 N 4 film 2.

A step of sequentially laminating a silicon nitride film and a first silicon oxide film on a semiconductor substrate when forming a trench-shaped element isolation region having a tapered enlarged portion in an opening, A step of forming an opening penetrating the silicon oxide film and the silicon nitride film to expose a trench formation region, and a tapered undercut portion is formed on the semiconductor substrate by an isotropic etching means through the opening. A step of forming a recess under the silicon nitride film, a step of forming a trench under the recess by anisotropic dry etching means through the opening, the recess by selective oxidation means using the silicon nitride film as a mask And forming a second silicon oxide film on the inner surface of the trench, vapor-depositing a silicon layer on the substrate to a thickness that completely fills the recess and the trench, The silicon layer on the first silicon oxide film;
The step of sequentially removing the silicon oxide film and the silicon layer above the silicon nitride film in the opening, and using the silicon nitride film as a mask to selectively oxidize the third silicon oxide film on the surface of the silicon layer. A method of manufacturing a semiconductor device, comprising the step of forming.
