Abstract

See full text

According to a lead-free solder bump bonding structure, by causing the interface (IMC interface) of the intermetallic compound layer at a lead-free-solder-bump side to have scallop shapes of equal to or less than 0.02 [portions/μm] without forming in advance an Ni layer as a barrier layer on the surfaces of respective Cu electrodes of first and second electronic components like conventional technologies, a Cu diffusion can be inhibited, thereby inhibiting an occurrence of an electromigration. Hence, the burden at the time of manufacturing can be reduced by what corresponds to an omission of the formation process of the Ni layer as a barrier layer on the Cu electrode surfaces, and thus a lead-free solder bump bonding structure can be provided which reduces a burden at the time of manufacturing in comparison with conventional technologies and which can inhibit an occurrence of an electromigration.
