Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor chip made of a SiC substrate and having main electrodes on one surface and a rear surface, first and second heat sinks, respectively, disposed adjacent to the one surface and the rear surface, a terminal member interposed between the second heat sink and the semiconductor chip, and a plurality of bonding members disposed between the main electrodes, the first and second heat sinks, and the terminal member. The terminal member includes plural types of metal layers symmetrically layered in the plate thickness direction. The terminal member as a whole has a coefficient of linear expansion at least in a direction orthogonal to the plate thickness direction in a range larger than that of the semiconductor chip and smaller than that of the second heat sink.
