Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A bonding structure including metal nano particles includes a first member having a metal surface on at least one side, a second member having a metal surface on at least one side, the second member being disposed such that the metal surface of the second member faces the metal surface of the first member, and a bonding material bonding the first member and the second member by sinter-bonding the metal nano particles. At least one of the metal surfaces of the first member and the second member is formed to be a rough surface having a surface roughness within the range from 0.5 μm to 2.0 μm.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A bonding structure including metal nano particles, comprising: a first member having a metal surface on at least one side; a second member having a metal surface on at least one side, said second member being disposed such that said metal surface of said second member faces said metal surface of said first member; and a bonding material bonding said first member and said second member by sinter-bonding the metal nano particles, wherein at least one of said metal surfaces of said first member and said second member is formed to be a rough surface having a surface roughness of 0.5 μm Rz-JIS to 2.0 μm Rz-JIS. 2. The bonding structure including metal nano particles according to claim 1 , wherein said rough surface includes a first roughness region having a first surface roughness and a second roughness region having a second surface roughness greater than said first surface roughness, and said first roughness region and said second roughness region are formed in straight stripes in parallel with each other. 3. The bonding structure including metal nano particles according to claim 1 , wherein said rough surface includes a first roughness region having a first surface roughness and a second roughness region having a second surface roughness greater than said first surface roughness, and said second roughness region is formed in a cross shape or in a grid pattern. 4. The bonding structure including metal nano particles according to claim 1 , wherein said rough surface is formed in a region greater than a bonding region to an opposite metal surface in at least one of said metal surfaces of said first member and said second member. 5. The bonding structure including metal nano particles according to claim 1 , wherein said first member is a semiconductor element and said second member is a heat spreader. 6. The bonding structure including metal nano particles according to claim 5 , wherein said semiconductor element is SiC. 7. The bonding structure including metal nano particles according to claim 1 , wherein said rough surface has a surface roughness of 0.5 μm Rz-JIS to less than 2.0 μm Rz-JIS. 8. The bonding structure including metal nano particles according to claim 7 , wherein said at least one of said metal surfaces of said first member and said second member is roughened to form said rough surface.
