A temporary fixing composition is provided that is used to temporarily fix a first bonding target material and a second bonding target material to each other before the two bonding target materials are bonded to each other. The temporary fixing composition contains a first organic component having a viscosity of less than 70 mPa.Math.s at 25° C. and a boiling point of 200° C. or lower and a second organic component having a viscosity of 70 mPa.Math.s or greater at 25° C. and a boiling point of 210° C. or higher. It is preferable that, when thermogravimetry-differential thermal analysis is performed under the conditions at a temperature increase rate of 10° C./min in a nitrogen atmosphere with a sample mass of 30 mg, the 95% mass reduction temperature is lower than 300° C.

A copper paste for joining contains metal particles and a dispersion medium, in which the copper paste for joining contains copper particles as the metal particles, and the copper paste for joining contains dihydroterpineol as the dispersion medium. A method for manufacturing a joined body is a method for manufacturing a joined body which includes a first member, a second member, and a joining portion that joins the first member and the second member, the method including: a first step of printing the above-described copper paste for joining to at least one joining surface of the first member and the second member to prepare a laminate having a laminate structure in which the first member, the copper paste for joining, and the second member are laminated in this order; and a second step of sintering the copper paste for joining of the laminate.

The invention is directed towards enhanced systems and methods for employing a pulsed photon (or EM energy) source, such as but not limited to a laser, to electrically couple, bond, and/or affix the electrical contacts of a semiconductor device to the electrical contacts of another semiconductor devices. Full or partial rows of LEDs are electrically coupled, bonded, and/or affixed to a backplane of a display device. The LEDs may be μLEDs. The pulsed photon source is employed to irradiate the LEDs with scanning photon pulses. The EM radiation is absorbed by either the surfaces, bulk, substrate, the electrical contacts of the LED, and/or electrical contacts of the backplane to generate thermal energy that induces the bonding between the electrical contacts of the LEDs' electrical contacts and backplane's electrical contacts. The temporal and spatial profiles of the photon pulses, as well as a pulsing frequency and a scanning frequency of the photon source, are selected to control for adverse thermal effects.
