Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A bonding material having a first layer containing Sn as a main component thereof and a second layer containing a metal having a higher melting point than that of Sn as a main component thereof, wherein the first layer and the second layer are laminated on each other, and an amount of Sn in the first layer is larger than a stoichiometric amount of Sn that forms an intermetallic compound between the Sn and the metal.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A bonding material for bonding two objects to each other, the bonding material comprising: a first layer containing a first metal, and the first metal is a material that contains Sn as a most abundant element by weight %; and a second layer containing a second metal, the second metal has a material having a higher melting point than that of Sn as a most abundant material by weight % of the second metal, wherein the first layer and the second layer are laminated on each other, and an amount of Sn in the first layer is larger than a stoichiometric amount of Sn that forms an intermetallic compound between the Sn in the first layer and the second metal in the second layer. 2. The bonding material according to claim 1 , wherein the second metal in the second layer is a CuNi alloy. 3. The bonding material according to claim 2 , wherein the intermetallic compound is (CuNi) 6 Sn 5 , and the amount of the CuNi alloy is 40 wt % and the amount of the Sn is 65 wt % or more, respectively, relative to a sum total of the stoichiometric amount of Sn and a stoichiometric amount of the CuNi alloy needed to form the intermetallic compound. 4. The bonding material according to claim 1 , wherein the second metal in the second layer is in a powder form. 5. The bonding material according to claim 1 , wherein the second layer is arranged between two of the first layers. 6. The bonding material according to claim 1 , wherein the second layer contains a flux. 7. The bonding material according to claim 1 , wherein the bonding material is in the form of a sheet or tape.
