Semiconductor device
A semiconductor device includes a semiconductor element having a substrate of GaAs, InP, or GaN, and an element securing member bonded to the semiconductor element by solder. The element securing member is a composite material of Cu and carbon or a composite of Al and carbon. A stem is connected to the element securing member, and a cap is secured to the stem. The cap covers the semiconductor element and the element securing member. The stem and the element securing member are made of the same material.
1. A semiconductor device comprising:
a semiconductor element having a substrate of one of GaAs, InP, and GaN;
an element securing member bonded to said semiconductor element by solder, wherein said element securing member is composed of a composite of Cu and carbon;
a stem connected to said element securing member; and
a cap secured to said stem and covering said semiconductor element, and said element securing member, wherein said stem and said element securing member are the same material.
2. The semiconductor device according to claim 1 , wherein said stem and said element securing member are integral.
3. The semiconductor device according to claim 1 , further comprising an iron layer on a surface of said stem, wherein said cap is welded to said iron layer and thereby secured to said stem.
4. A semiconductor device comprising:
a semiconductor element having a substrate of one of GaAs, InP, and GaN;
an element securing member bonded to said semiconductor element by solder, wherein said element securing member is composed of a composite of Al and carbon;
a stem connected to said element securing member; and
a cap secured to said stem and covering said semiconductor element, and said element securing member, wherein said stem and said element securing member are the same material.
5. The semiconductor device according to claim 4 , wherein said stem and said element securing member are integral.
6. The semiconductor device according to claim 4 , further comprising an iron layer on a surface of said stem, wherein said cap is welded to said iron layer and thereby secured to said stem.
