A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor region, source and drain regions, gate insulating film, and gate electrode. The semiconductor region has a plane orientation of (001). The source and drain regions are formed away from each other in the semiconductor region, and a channel region is formed in the semiconductor region between the source and drain regions. The channel length direction of the channel region is set along the direction of <100> of the semiconductor region. Tensile stress is produced in the channel length direction. The gate insulating film is formed on the semiconductor region between the source and drain regions. The gate electrode is formed on the gate insulating film.
