1. A producing method of a semiconductor device comprising:
forming a trapezoidal portion including a first oxide film which functions as a gate oxide film and a plurality of other films,
wherein said first oxide film has a first peripheral region including an end face of said first oxide film, and a first central region surrounded by said first peripheral region; and
adjusting a thermal treatment of said trapezoidal portion so that a film thickness of said first oxide film in said first peripheral region is thicker than a film thickness of said first oxide film in said first central region,
wherein a length from the end face to a midpoint of the first central region of said first oxide film of said trapezoidal portion is L, and a length of said first peripheral region from the end face of said first oxide film is 2L/3.
