Abstract:
A composition may have metal nanoparticles having a diameter of 20 nanometers or less and have a fusion temperature of less than about 220° C. A method of fabricating the metal nanoparticles may include preparing a solvent, adding a precursor with a metal to the solvent, adding a first surfactant, mixing in a reducing agent, and adding in a second surfactant to stop nanoparticle formation. Copper and/or aluminum nanoparticle compositions formed may be used for lead-free soldering of electronic components to circuit boards. A composition may include nanoparticles, which may have a copper nanocore, an amorphous aluminum shell and an organic surfactant coating. A composition may have copper or aluminum nanoparticles. About 30-50% of the copper or aluminum nanoparticles may have a diameter of 20 nanometers or less, and the remaining 70-50% of the copper or aluminum nanoparticles may have a diameter greater than 20 nanometers.

Abstract:
The first support body is pressed against the second support body in response to the softening of the adhesive sheet. The fillers are allowed to reliably contact with one another between the first electrically-conductive land and the second electrically-conductive land. The fillers melt after the adhesive sheet has been softened. The intermetallic compounds are formed between the fillers and the electrically-conductive lands and between the fillers. Electrical connection is in this manner established between the first electrically-conductive land and the second electrically-conductive land. The matrix material and the adhesive sheet are then cured. The first support body and the second support body are firmly bonded to each other.
