Abstract

A new material for use in the manufacture of semiconductor devices, a method of manufacturing the new material, and a heat radiator structure for a semiconductor device. The material is an aluminum alloy containing 30-60% by weight of Si and the remaining weight % is Al. The method of manufacture includes solidifying molten material into a powder and forming the powder by hot plastic working. The heat radiator structure includes a substrate of envelope material and an Al-Si alloy layer glued to the substrate through a function layer.
