Patent attributes
A semiconductor device includes: a base plate having a first surface and having a first contact area in the first surface; a metal plate having a second surface, disposed such that the second surface faces the first surface, and having a second contact area in the second surface; a bonding material disposed between the first surface and the second surface and in contact with the first contact area and the second contact area to bond the metal plate and the base plate; an insulating plate disposed on the metal plate; a circuit member disposed on the insulating plate; a semiconductor element mounted to the circuit member; and a sealing material that covers the metal plate, the bonding material, the insulating plate, the circuit member, and the semiconductor element to seal a space above the base plate, wherein outside the second contact area, the second surface has a non-contact area that is not in contact with the bonding material, wherein on the base plate, a groove portion facing the non-contact area and surrounding the first contact area is provided, and wherein, in a plan view as viewed in a thickness direction of the base plate, an inner periphery of a corner portion of the groove portion has a first curve.
