Abstract

Abstract A vertical type construction transistor is provided wherein a bump electrode is disposed immediately on the junction portions formed on the surface of the semiconductor basic plate so as to effect a radiating operation with the electrode being connected to a heat sink. As a result the heating of the junction portion formed on the basic plate surface is effectively released, the inductance of the outgoing line is reduced, and the power amplification used in the microwave band is put to practical use.
