Problems solved by technology

[0009] In the above-mentioned insulated circuit board (substrate for power module), an example was shown in which Al-Si-based brazing filler metal was used when bonding the ceramic substrate and the aluminum plate. 3 N 4 ) and the aluminum plate, the joint strength cannot be ensured sufficiently due to the influence of the sintering aid of the ceramic substrate, etc.
[0010] In particular, there are ceramic substrates (insulating layers) and metal layers in insulating circuit boards (substrates for power modules) that undergo repeated cooling and heating cycles between a high-temperature state caused by heat generated during operation of power semiconductor elements and a low-temperature state when they are not operating. The problem that the joint reliability is easy to decrease
