1. A semiconductor device including a p-type field-effect transistor, comprising:
a formation region of the p-type field-effect transistor, surrounded by a first STI, and formed of a semiconductor substrate with a plane direction of a surface being a (100) surface;
a second STI surrounded by the formation region of the p-type field-effect transistor and separated from the first STI; and
a gate electrode provided so as to run upon the second STI, and to cross the formation region of the p-type field-effect transistor in a <010> direction,
wherein a direction of a channel formed on a surface of the formation region of the p-type field-effect transistor under the gate electrode is set as a <100> direction.
