摘要:
Metallic films are formed on a silicon substrate on which an insulation film and a conductive portion are exposed. The metallic films include a first metallic film directly contacting the insulation film and the conductive portion and a second metallic film disposed on the first metallic film as a stress adjustment film to control a stress at an interface between the first metallic film and the underlying member. Accordingly, an adhesion between the first metallic film and the insulation film can be controlled to be smaller than that between the first metallic film and the conductive portion. Then, the metallic film is removed from the insulation film by an adhesive sheet selectively while remaining on the conductive portion. As a result, the metallic film can be patterned stably and readily at low cost.

On a rear surface of a semiconductor (10), a contact layer (11), a diffusion preventing layer (12) and a solder joint layer (13) are formed, and this solder joint layer (13) is connected to a mount base (15) by a Pb-Sn solder layer (14). The contact layer (11) is formed of a rare earth metal, its silicide or a composite thereof, the diffusion preventing layer (12) is formed of a ferrous metal, and the solder joint layer (13) is formed of a Ni-Au alloy. By forming the diffusion preventing layer (12) using the ferrous metal, a diffusion of tin in a solder is prevented and by the solder joint layer (13) of the Ni-Au alloy, an excellent solder joint property can be maintained to reduce the number of laminated layers. Further, as a surface treated layer of at least one joint member, the Ni-Au alloy is used and by heating the semiconductor substrate via a solder foil in a reducing atmosphere a high airtightness is obtained.

Disclosed is a nickel layer formed on a substrate by sputtering, in which nickel layer a percent ratio of an X-ray diffraction peak intensity of the (200) plane of the nickel layer to that of the (111) plane of the nickel layer is not less than 10%. This nickel layer has a reduced stress, and therefore, lessens a bending of a substrate. The nickel layer is formed by a process for sputtering nickel on a substrate, comprising supplying an argon gas into a vacuum chamber, adjusting a pressure of the argon gas in the vacuum chamber to a predetermined value, ionizing the argon gas, bombarding a target containing nickel with the ionized argon gas, to sputter nickel atoms, and depositing the sputtered nickel atoms onto the substrate, wherein the predetermined pressure of the argon gas is not lower than 12 mTorr.
