A trench (319) is created which extends through the semiconductor layer and into the dielectric layer, and the trench is backfilled with a stressor material (320), thereby forming a trench isolation structure. A channel region (326) is defined in the semiconductor layer adjacent to the trench isolation structure.

A process for fabricating a MOSFET on an SOI substrate includes the formation of an active region (14) isolated by field isolation regions (16, 18) and by an insulating layer (12). A recess (26) is formed in the active region (14) using a masking layer (22) having an opening (24) therein. A gate dielectric layer (32) is formed in the recess (26) and a polycrystalline silicon layer (34) is deposited to overlie the masking layer (22), and to fill the recess (26). A planarization process is carried out to form a gate electrode (36) in the recess (26), and source and drain regions (40, 42) are formed in a self-aligned manner to the gate electrode (36). A channel region (44) resides intermediate to the source and drain regions (40, 42) and directly below the gate electrode (36).
