Substrates that are bonding targets are bonded in ambient atmosphere via bonding films, including oxides, formed on bonding faces of the substrates. The bonding films, which are metal or semiconductor thin films formed by vacuum film deposition and at least the surfaces of which are oxidized, are formed into the respective smooth faces of two substrates having the smooth faces that serve as the bonding faces. The bonding films are exposed to a space that contains moisture, and the two substrates are overlapped in the ambient atmosphere such that the surfaces of the bonding films are made to be hydrophilic and the surfaces of the bonding films contact one another. Through this, a chemical bond is generated at the bonded interface, and thereby the two substrates are bonded together in the ambient atmosphere. The bonding strength can be improved by heating the bonded substrates at a temperature.

A bonding between a first substrate and a second substrate, the method includes the steps of: a) providing the first substrate and the second substrate, b) forming a first bonding layer having tungsten oxide on the first substrate and a second bonding layer having tungsten oxide on the second substrate, at least one of the first bonding layer and of the second bonding layer including a third element M so as to form an MWxOy-type alloy, the atomic content of M in the composition of the alloy being between 0.5 and 20% and preferably between 1 and 10%, c) carrying out a direct bonding between the first bonding layer and the second bonding layer, and d) performing a heat treatment at a temperature greater than 250 C.
