A manufacturing method includes the step of forming a diced semiconductor wafer (10) including semiconductor chips (11) from a semiconductor wafer (W) typically on a dicing tape (T1). The diced semiconductor wafer (10) on the dicing tape (T1) is laminated with a sinter-bonding sheet (20). The semiconductor chips (11) each with a sinter-bonding material layer (21) derived from the sinter-bonding sheet (20) are picked up typically from the dicing tape (T1). The semiconductor chips (11) each with the sinter-bonding material layer are temporarily secured through the sinter-bonding material layer (21) to a substrate. Through a heating process, sintered layers are formed from the sinter-bonding material layers (21) lying between the temporarily secured semiconductor chips (11) and the substrate, to bond the semiconductor chips (11) to the substrate. The semiconductor device manufacturing method is suitable for efficiently supplying a sinter-bonding material to individual semiconductor chips while reducing loss of the sinter-bonding material.

The present disclosure provides a method of transferring an electronic element using a stamping and magnetic field alignment technology and an electronic device including an electronic element transferred using the method. In the present disclosure, a polymer may be simultaneously coated on a plurality of electronic elements using the stamping process, and the polymer may be actively coated on the electronic elements without restrictions on process parameters such as size and spacing of the electronic elements.
