Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, copper that is generally used as a material that satisfies this condition has a large specificity and is expensive. If copper is used as a heat sink component, or the structure of the component itself is thickened to improve rigidity, there is a problem that the semiconductor device cannot be miniaturized and light. Quantitative, low-cost issues
In addition, in the case of using copper, an easily available plate material is generally used, and there is also a problem that it is difficult to shape the shape due to reasons such as reducing machining costs.
[0007] And, in order to make semiconductor device miniaturization, light weight, low cost, if make heat sink thin, light weight etc., then the rigidity of heat sink reduces, and heat sink easily deforms, therefore, it is difficult to make the thickness of thermally conductive member thin and uniform problem
In addition, the deformation of the heat sink is caused by various factors such as the influence of the pressing force of the reinforcement beam and the plate spring, or the influence of the pressure contact force for forming a thin and uniform thermally conductive member. Due to the influence of the temperature of the environment in which the semiconductor device is used or the thermal stress caused by the heat generated by the semiconductor module, etc., there is a problem that the original performance of the semiconductor device cannot be stably exhibited.
