Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A bonding member ( 10 ) includes surface-processed silver surfaces ( 11 a, 11 b ).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for producing a bonding member used for bonding a first bonding target and a second bonding target together through heating, the bonding member having a surface-processed silver surface, the method comprising: preparing a silver layer that is porous; and processing a surface of the silver layer so as to supply the surface of the silver layer with a compressive stress, wherein the bonding member has a thickness of 50 μm or greater and 300 μm or less. 2. The method for producing the bonding member of claim 1 , wherein in the processing of the surface of the silver layer, the surface of the silver layer is processed such that the number of grain boundaries, between silver grains, at the surface of the silver layer is larger than that in a pre-processing state. 3. The method for producing the bonding member of claim 1 , wherein the surface-processed silver surface has a residual stress of a negative value due to supply of the compressive stress. 4. The method for producing the bonding member of claim 3 , wherein in the processing of the surface of the silver layer, the surface of the silver layer is processed such that the number of the pores at the surface of the silver layer is smaller than that in a pre-processing state. 5. The method for producing the bonding member of claim 1 , wherein in the preparing a silver layer, the silver layer is formed through heating a silver paste. 6. The method for producing the bonding member of claim 1 , wherein in the processing a surface of the silver layer, the silver surface is ground. 7. A method for producing a bonding structure, comprising: preparing a bonding member by the method according to claim 1 ; preparing the first bonding target; preparing the second bonding target; forming a stack body including the first bonding target, the bonding member, and the second bonding target stacked such that the bonding member is located between the first bonding target and the second bonding target; and heating the stack body to bond the first bonding target and the second bonding target to together via the bonding member.
