PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a MOS field-effect transistor improved in a breakdown voltage property by preventing GIDL. SOLUTION: The MOS field-effect transistor includes a device isolating region disposed on a predetermined portion of the semiconductor substrate to define an active region, a source region and a drain region spaced apart from each other about a channel region within the active region, a gate electrode formed on the active region between the source region and the drain region, and a gate insulating layer formed between the active region and the gate electrode. The gate insulating layer includes a central gate insulating layer disposed under central portion of a gate electrode, an edge gate insulating layer disposed under an edge of the gate electrode to have a bottom surface level with a bottom of the central insulating layer, and an upper surface protruding to be higher than an upper surface of the central gate insulating layer.
