In a lead-free solder bump, diffusion of Cu from intermetallic compound layers, which are respectively formed at joining interfaces with Cu electrodes is suppressed, so that the in metallic compound layers are not likely to disappear. Correspondingly, with the use of the intermetallic compound layers, Cu is not likely to diffuse from the Cu electrodes into the lead-free solder bump. Even when an electric current flows continuously between a first electronic member and a second electronic member through the lead-free solder bump, the occurrences of the electromigration phemenon and the thermomigration phenomenon are suppressed. Thus, the present invention provides a lead-free solder bump joining structure capable of suppressing the disconnection failure caused by the synergistic effect of the electromigration phenomenon and the thermomigration phenomenon.

A substrate support and method of forming a substrate support are described herein. In one example, a substrate support includes an aluminum body having an upper surface configured to support a large area substrate, a heater element, and a filler material. The aluminum body has a groove formed therein. The heater element is disposed in the groove. The filler material is in contact with the heater element and fills the groove. The contact between the filler material and the perimeter of the heater element is the only material interface within the groove, and the filler material has a larger grain size than a grain size of the aluminum body.
