A method of fabricating a semiconductor device, includes forming an amorphous silicon film above a semiconductor substrate, partially removing each of the amorphous silicon film and the semiconductor substrate, thereby forming an element isolation trench in a surface of the semiconductor substrate, forming an insulating film above the amorphous silicon film so that the element isolation trench is filled with the insulating film, polishing the insulating film by a chemical-mechanical polishing method with the amorphous silicon film serving as a stopper, thereby planarizing an upper surface of the insulating film, and thermally-treating the amorphous silicon film, thereby converting to a polysilicon film after polishing the insulating film.
