Abstract

Among two main surfaces of a heat dissipation member, one main surface is curved to be convex in an outward direction and the other convex in an inward direction. When a straight line passing through both endpoints P 1 and P 2 of the curve is l 1 , a point at which a distance to l 1 on the curve is maximum is P max , an intersection point between l 1 and a perpendicular drawn from P max to l 1 is P 3 , a middle point of a line segment P 1 P 3 is P 4 , an intersection point between the curve and a straight line that passes through P 4 and is perpendicular to l 1 is P mid , a length of the line segment P 1 P 3 is L, a length of a line segment P 3 P max is H, and a length of a line segment P 4 P max is h, (2 h/L)/(H/L) is 1.1 or more.
