A method of manufacturing an integrated circuit (IC) utilizes a shallow trench isolation (STI) technique. The shallow trench isolation technique is used in a strained silicon (SMOS) process. The liner for the trench is formed from a layer deposited in a low temperature process which reduces germanium outgassing. The low temperature process can be an LPCVD. An annealing step can be utilized to form the liner.
