Abstract: Provided is a method of fabricating a transistor. The method includes forming a fin portion protruding upward from a substrate, forming a device isolation pattern on the substrate to cover a lower portion of a sidewall of the fin portion, forming a trench in the device isolation pattern, the trench exposing a top surface and sidewalls of a channel region of the fin portion, and injecting a Group-IV element into the channel region of the fin portion to increase the volume of the channel region.

Abstract: Provided are a semiconductor device and a method of fabricating the same. The semiconductor device comprises a first trench formed in a substrate; a first insulating film formed on sidewalls and a bottom surface of the first trench and not formed on a top surface of the substrate; and a first conductive film formed on the first insulating film to partially fill the first trench, wherein the first insulating film comprises a first portion which overlaps the first conductive film and a second portion which does not overlap the first conductive film, wherein the second portion comprises first fixed charges.
