Abstract
A semiconductor device, for example a solar battery cell with a semiconductor element and a composite lead wire attached to the semiconductor element in which the lead wire includes a core and a cover overlying the core. The core has a lower thermal expansion coefficient than that of the semiconductor element, and the cover has a higher thermal expansion coefficient than that of the element and a higher electrical conductivity than that of the core. The lead wire therefore has substantially the same thermal expansion coefficient as that of the semiconductor element.
