[0026] The inventors have initially investigated the junction between metallized electrodes and solder layers. Figure 7A ~ Figure 7C An example method of forming a metallized electrode on an aluminum electrode using Ni / Au plating is shown in . An interlayer insulating film 4 is formed on one face of the semiconductor substrate 1 . The insulating film 4 is patterned and electrically insulated between the gate and the emitter. An aluminum electrode 11 is deposited on the one face of the substrate 1 to cover the insulating film 4 by using a sputtering method or a vapor deposition method.

[0027] like Figure 7A As shown, the aluminum electrode 11 has protrusions and recesses corresponding to the insulating film 4 . Then, the oxide film formed on the aluminum electrode 11 is removed by etching the surface of the aluminum electrode 11 . like Figure 7B As shown, the metallized electrode 13 is formed on the aluminum electrode 11 . The metallized electrode 13 includes a nicke...

[0075] Image 6 A semiconductor device according to a second embodiment of the present invention is shown. specifically, Image 6 A laminated structure of an aluminum electrode 11 and a metallized electrode 13 is shown. The metalized electrode 13 is formed by a PVD method such as a sputtering method and a vapor deposition method. The thickness of the metallized electrode 13 includes, for example, a 0.2 μm thick titanium layer 13 c, a 0.5 μm thick nickel layer 13 d, and a 0.1 μm thick gold layer 13 e.

[0076] This second embodiment has the same advantages as the first embodiment. Specifically, the recesses and protrusions of the metallization electrode 13 arranged on the aluminum electrode 11 are smaller in order to improve the bonding strength of the aluminum electrode 11 . Also, electrical failure of the device is reduced.

Abstract

A semiconductor device comprising: a semiconductor substrate (1); an aluminum electrode (11) arranged on the surface of the substrate (1); a protective film arranged on the aluminum electrode (11) and having an opening (12a) (12); and a metallized electrode (13) disposed on the surface of the aluminum electrode (11) through the openings (12a) of the protective film (12). The surface of the aluminum electrode (11) includes a concave portion (11a). The recess (11a) has an opening side and a bottom side, the bottom side being wider than the opening side. In this device, the recesses and protrusions of the metallized electrodes (13) are reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a semiconductor device with aluminum electrodes and metallized electrodes. Background technique [0002] A semiconductor device has a semiconductor substrate and an aluminum electrode formed on one face of the semiconductor substrate. Such devices are disclosed, for example, in Japanese Patent Publication No. 2002-110893 corresponding to US Patent No. 6693350 and the like, and Japanese Patent Publication No. 2003-110064 corresponding to US Patent Publication No. 2003-0022464A1. A heat sink and the like are welded to the aluminum electrodes. [0003] In this device, a protective film is formed on an aluminum electrode arranged on one face of a semiconductor substrate by using the bump electrode method disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. S63-305532. Then, openings are formed in the protective film. Metallized electrodes for soldering or for bonding wires are formed on the surfaces of the aluminum electrodes exposed thro...
