Produced is a metal ball which suppresses an emitted dose. Contained are the steps of melting a pure metal by heating the pure metal at a temperature which is higher than a boiling point of an impurity to be removed, higher than a melting point of the pure metal, and lower than a boiling point of the pure metal, the pure metal containing a U content of 5 ppb or less, a Th content of 5 ppb or less, purity of 99.9% or more and 99.995% or less, and a Pb or Bi content or a total content of Pb and Bi of 1 ppm or more, and the pure metal having the boiling point higher than the boiling point at atmospheric pressure of the impurity to be removed; and sphering the molten pure metal in a ball.

A system and method for applying an underfill is provided. An embodiment comprises applying an underfill to a substrate and patterning the underfill. Once patterned other semiconductor devices, such as semiconductor dies or semiconductor packages may then be attached to the substrate through the underfill, with electrical connections from the other semiconductor devices extending into the pattern of the underfill.
