The present invention relates to a high-reliable semiconductor device in
which electrodes formed on substrates are prevented from deteriorating by
sealing the electrodes with a frame member rather than a sealing
material. The frame member in the present invention surrounds electrodes
formed on the substrates. The inside of the frame member is vacuous or
filled with a gas which does not react with the electrodes such as an
inert gas and, thereby, the electrodes are prevented from deteriorating
by attacks of oxygen or moisture.
