Patent 11842968 was granted and assigned to Mitsubishi Electric Corporation on December, 2023 by the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
A power semiconductor device includes a substrate and a semiconductor element bonded onto a first surface of the substrate through use of a sintered metal bonding material. The substrate has a plurality of dimples formed in the first surface and located outside a location immediately below a heat generation unit of the semiconductor element. The sintered metal bonding material is supplied onto the substrate after the formation of the dimples, and the semiconductor element is bonded to the substrate through application of heat and a pressure thereto.
