Abstract
A semiconductor device comprises: a diode element with a main surface having an electrode and a back surface having another electrode; a heat dissipation base arranged to face the diode element; a Cu lead arranged to face the diode element; a bonding material which bonds the back surface of the diode element and the heat dissipation base to each other; and a bonding material which bonds the main surface of the diode element and the Cu lead to each other. The bonding material provided on the back surface side of the diode element is a lead-free solder having a melting point higher than 260° C. and a thermal expansion coefficient lower than that of a Zn—Al solder; and the bonding material provided on the main surface side of the diode element contains a high-melting-point metal having a melting point higher than 260° C. and a compound of Sn and the high-melting-point metal.
