Abstract

According to one embodiment, a semiconductor device includes a substrate; a semiconductor chip provided on the substrate; a resin covering the semiconductor chip; and a metal film provided on the resin. The metal film includes a first metal layer provided on the resin, a second metal layer provided on the first metal layer, and a third metal layer provided on the second metal layer. The first metal layer and the second metal layer contain a same material, and a particle diameter of the second metal layer is smaller than a particle diameter of the first metal layer.

Claims (18)

1. A semiconductor device comprising:

a substrate;

a semiconductor chip provided on the substrate;

a resin covering the semiconductor chip; and

a metal film provided on the resin, wherein

the metal film includes a first metal layer provided on the resin, a second metal layer provided on the first metal layer, and a third metal layer provided on the second metal layer, and

the first metal layer and the second metal layer contain a same material, and a particle diameter of the second metal layer is smaller than a particle diameter of the first metal layer,

wherein the particle diameter of the first metal layer of at least 0.20 μm and no more than 0.5 μm, and the particle diameter of the second metal layer is 0.15 μm or less.

2. The semiconductor device according to claim 1 , wherein

the first metal layer and the second metal layer contain copper.
