A light emitting device (100) includes a base member (101), electrically conductive members (102a, 102b) disposed on the base member (101), a light emitting element (104) mounted on the electrically conductive members (102a, 102b), an insulating filler (114) covering at least a portion of surfaces of the electrically conductive members (102a, 102b) where the light emitting element (104) is not mounted, and a light transmissive member (108) covering the light emitting element (104).

Embodiments herein may relate to an apparatus with a package that includes a first substrate soldered to a second substrate via solder comprising an off-eutectic solder material. The off-eutectic solder material may form a joint between the first substrate and the second substrate. The off-eutectic solder material may be any suitable material that melts over a range of temperatures, which may provide a relatively slow collapse of the off-eutectic solder material during a melting process. The relatively slow collapse may provide a sufficient amount of time for gases to escape prior to collapse, and thus, the joint between the first substrate and the second substrate may have less voids compared to joints formed using eutectic solder materials. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

A method of forming an integrated circuit device includes forming a bump structure on a substrate, wherein the bump structure has a top surface and a sidewall surface, and the substrate has a surface region exposed by the bump structure. The method further includes depositing a non-metal protection layer on the top surface and the sidewall surface of the bump structure and the surface region of the substrate. The method further includes removing the non-metal protection layer from the top surface of the bump structure, wherein a remaining portion of the non-metal protection layer forms an L-shaped protection structure, and a top surface of the remaining portion of the non-metal protection layer is farther from the substrate than a top surface of the bump structure.

A solder joint layer has a structure in which plural fine-grained second crystal sections (22) precipitate at crystal grain boundaries between first crystal sections (21) dispersed in a matrix. The first crystal sections (21) are Sn crystal grains containing tin and antimony in a predetermined proportion. The second crystal sections (22) are made up of a first portion containing a predetermined proportion of Ag atoms with respect to Sn atoms, or a second portion containing a predetermined proportion of Cu atoms with respect to Sn atoms, or both. The solder joint layer may have third crystal sections (23) which are crystal grains that contain a predetermined proportion of Sb atoms with respect to Sn atoms. As a result, solder joining is enabled at a low melting point, and a highly reliable solder joint layer having a substantially uniform metal structure can be formed.
