Joint structure, joining material, and method for producing joining material containing bismuth

摘要

The present invention provides a semiconductor component having a joint structure including a semiconductor device, an electrode disposed opposite the semiconductor device, and a joining material which contains Bi as main component and connects the semiconductor device to the electrode. Since the joining material contains a carbon compound, joint failure due to the difference in linear expansion coefficient between the semiconductor device and the electrode can be reduced compared with conventional materials. The joining material which contains Bi as main component enables provision of a joint structure in which a semiconductor device and an electrode are joined by a joint more reliable than a conventional joint.
