Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An electronic apparatus includes a first electronic part with a first terminal, a second electronic part with a second terminal opposite the first terminal, and a joining portion which joins the first terminal and the second terminal. The joining portion contains a pole-like compound extending in a direction in which the first terminal and the second terminal are opposite to each other. The joining portion contains the pole-like compound, so the strength of the joining portion is improved. When the first terminal and the second terminal are joined, the temperature of one of the first electronic part and the second electronic part is made higher than that of the other. A joining material is cooled and solidified in this state. By doing so, the pole-like compound is formed.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An electronic apparatus comprising: a first electronic part with a first terminal; a second electronic part with a second terminal opposite the first terminal; and a joining portion that joins the first terminal and the second terminal, wherein the joining portion includes a portion containing at least a first metallic element and a second metallic element different from the first metallic element, and an intermetallic compound containing the first metallic element and the second metallic element different from the first metallic element, the intermetallic compound extending in a direction in which the first terminal and the second terminal are opposite to each other, the portion being around the intermetallic compound, and wherein the first metallic element is Sn, and the second metallic element is one of Au, Cu, Ni, and Pd. 2. The electronic apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the intermetallic compound is pole-shaped.
