A method and structure for joining a semiconductor device and a laminate substrate or two laminate substrates where the joint is formed with lead free solders and lead free compositions. The various lead free solders and lead free compositions are chosen so that there is a sufficient difference in liquidus temperatures such that some components may be joined to, or removed from, the laminate substrate without disturbing other components on the laminate substrate.

A method for disassembling a stack of at least three substrates. The invention relates to the techniques for transferring thin films in the microelectronics field. It proposes a method for disassembling a stack of at least three substrates having between them two interfaces, one interface of which has an adhesion energy and an interface of which has an adhesion energy, with less than, the method comprising: 1) implementing a removal of material on the first substrate, in order to expose a surface of the second substrate, 2) transferring the stack onto a flexible adhesive film so that the surface has, with an adhesive layer of the film, an adhesion energy greater than, and 3) disassembling the third substrate at the interface between the second substrate and the third substrate. The method makes it possible to open the stack via the interface thereof with the highest adhesion energy.

In a method of manufacturing a semiconductor device according to one embodiment, after a semiconductor wafer including a non-volatile memory, a bonding pad and an insulating film comprised of an organic material is provided, a probe needle is contacted to a surface of the bonding pad located in a second region, and a data is written to the non-volatile memory. Here, the insulating film is formed by performing a first heat treatment to the organic material. Also, after a second heat treatment is performed to the semiconductor wafer, and the non-volatile memory to which the data is written is checked, a barrier layer and a first solder material are formed on the surface of the bonding pad located in a first region by using an electroplating method. Further, a bump electrode is formed in the first region by performing a third heat treatment to the first solder material.
