A bonding wire for a semiconductor device includes a Cu alloy core material and a Pd coating layer on a surface of the Cu alloy core material, and contains Ga and Ge of 0.011 to 1.2% by mass in total, which is able to increase bonding longevity of the ball bonded part in the high-temperature, high-humidity environment, and thus to improve the bonding reliability. The thickness of the Pd coating layer is preferably 0.015 to 0.150 m. When the bonding wire further contains one or more elements of Ni, Ir, and Pt in an amount, for each element, of 0.011 to 1.2% by mass, it is able to improve the reliability of the ball bonded part in a high-temperature environment at 175 C. or more. When an alloy skin layer containing Au and Pd is further formed on a surface of the Pd coating layer, wedge bondability improves.

A light emitting device mount includes a positive lead terminal, and a negative lead terminal. Each of the positive and negative lead terminal includes a first main surface, a second main surface, and an end surface. The end surface is provided between the first main surface and the second main surface. The end surface includes a first recessed surface area and a second recessed surface area. The first recessed surface area is extending from a first point of the first main surface in cross section. The second recessed surface area is extending from a second point of the second main surface in cross section. The first and second recessed surface areas define a protruding portion protruding outwardly.
