A contact pad includes a solder-wettable porous network (310) which wicks the molten solder (130) and thus restricts the lateral spread of the solder, thus preventing solder bridging between adjacent contact pads.

Provided is a method for producing a joined body, the method including a first step of preparing a laminated body which includes a first member having a metal pillar provided on a surface thereof, a second member having an electrode pad provided on a surface thereof, and a joining material provided between the metal pillar and the electrode pad and containing metal particles and an organic compound, and a second step of heating the laminated body to sinter the joining material at a predetermined sintering temperature, in which the joining material satisfies the condition of the following Formula (I):

(M.sub.1M.sub.2)/M.sub.11001.0(I)

[in Formula (I), M.sub.1 represents a mass of the joining material when a temperature of the joining material reaches the sintering temperature in the second step, and M.sub.2 represents a non-volatile content in the joining material.]

Reduced-profile semiconductor device apparatus are achieved by thinning a semiconductive device substrate at a backside surface to expose a through-silicon via pillar, forming a recess to further expose the through-silicon via pillar, and by seating an electrical bump in the recess to contact both the through-silicon via pillar and the recess. In an embodiment, the electrical bump contacts a semiconductor package substrate to form a low-profile semiconductor device apparatus. In an embodiment, the electrical bump contacts a subsequent die to form a low-profile semiconductor device apparatus.
