Disclosed herein is a method for isolating active regions in a germanium-based MOS device. A surface of a germanium-based substrate is covered by a thin polysilicon layer or a poly-SiGe layer, and an isolation structure of germanium dioxide covered by a silicon dioxide layer or a SiGe oxide layer on top is formed by means of two steps of oxidation in a case of the active regions are protected. Such two steps of oxidation using the polysilicon layer or the poly-SiGe layer as a sacrificial layer is advantageous to improve the isolation quality of a fabricated germanium dioxide and to reduce a beak effect occurred during a local field oxygen oxidation so as to dramatically elevate the performance of the germanium device.

The field effect transistor comprises a substrate, a source/drain, a gate dielectric layer, and a gate, characterized in that, an “L” shaped composite isolation layer, which envelops a part of a side face of the source/drain adjacent to a channel and the bottom of the source/drain, is arranged between the source/drain and the substrate; the composite isolation layer is divided into two layers, that is, an “L” shaped insulation thin layer contacting directly with the substrate and an “L” shaped high stress layer contacting directly with the source and the drain. The field effect transistor of such a structure improves the mobility of charge carriers by introducing stress into the channel by means of the high stress layer, while fundamentally improving the device structure of the field effect transistor and improving the short channel effect suppressing ability of the device.

The present invention discloses a CMOS device of reducing charge sharing effect and a fabrication method thereof. The present invention has an additional isolation for trapping carriers disposed right below an isolation region. the material of the additional isolation region is porous silicon. Since porous silicon is a functional material of spongy structure by electrochemistry anodic oxidizing monocrystalline silicon wafer, there are a large number of microvoids and dangling bonds on the surface layer of the porous silicon. These defects may form defect states in a center of forbidden band of the porous silicon, the defect states may trap carriers so as to cause an increased resistance. And with an increase of density of corrosion current, porosity increases, and defects in the porous silicon increase. The present invention can reduce the charge sharing effect due to heavy ions by using a feature that the defect states in the porous silicon trap carriers, the formation of a shallow trench isolation (STI) region and a isolation region underneath only needs one time photolithography, and the process is simple, so that radioresistance performance of an integrated circuit may be greatly increased.
