Abstract
A semiconductor device includes a lead, a semiconductor substrate, a back-surface electrode provided between the semiconductor substrate and the lead, and a solder layer configured to connect the back-surface electrode and the lead. The back-surface electrode includes a silicide layer formed on a back surface of the semiconductor substrate, a bonding layer formed on the lead, a barrier layer formed on the bonding layer, and a stress relaxation layer formed between the silicide layer and the barrier layer. The stress relaxation layer is made of a first metal film containing aluminum as a main component or a second metal film containing gold, silver, or copper as a main component.
