Summary:PURPOSE: A semiconductor device is provided to alleviate a hot carrier effect of the semiconductor device by preventing a hot carrier to be trapped in a gate insulating layer. CONSTITUTION: A source region and a drain region are included within a substrate. A gate insulating layer(141) is provided to the substrate. A gate electrode(150) is formed on the gate insulating layer. The gate electrode comprises a first gate unit(151) adjacent to the source region and a second gate unit(152) adjacent to the drain region. A work function of the first gate unit is different with a work function of the second gate unit. The first gate unit and the second gate unit comprise a meal material. A first well region is adjacent to the source region. A drift region is located between the first well region and the drain region.
