Abstract

A method of fabricating a semiconductor device comprising a step of forming a trench selectively on a semiconductor substrate, a step of positioning said semiconductor substrate to a first position inclined to a plane vertical to ion beams, a step of injecting ions by emitting ion beams to a side-wall of the trench of the semiconductor substrate at the first position, a step of positioning said semiconductor substrate to a second position which is different from the first position by rotating it, and a step of injecting ions by emitting ion beams to a side-wall of the trench of the semiconductor substrate at the second position.
