Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a first pMISFET region having an Si channel, a second pMISFET region having an Si channel and an nMISFET region having an Si channel. First SiGe layers which apply first compression strain to the Si channel are embedded and formed in the first pMISFET region to sandwich the Si channel thereof and second SiGe layers which apply second compression strain different from the first compression strain to the Si channel are embedded and formed in the second pMISFET region to sandwich the Si channel thereof.
