A nanowire bonding interconnect for fine-pitch microelectronics is provided. Vertical nanowires created on conductive pads provide a debris-tolerant bonding layer for making direct metal bonds between opposing pads or vias. Nanowires may be grown from a nanoporous medium with a height between 200-1000 nanometers and a height-to-diameter aspect ratio that enables the nanowires to partially collapse against the opposing conductive pads, creating contact pressure for nanowires to direct-bond to opposing pads. Nanowires may have diameters less than 200 nanometers and spacing less than 1 μm from each other to enable contact or direct-bonding between pads and vias with diameters under 5 μm at very fine pitch. The nanowire bonding interconnects may be used with or without tinning, solders, or adhesives. A nanowire forming technique creates a nanoporous layer on conductive pads, creates nanowires within pores of the nanoporous layer, and removes at least part of the nanoporous layer to reveal a layer of nanowires less than 1 μm in height for direct bonding.
