Embodiments herein describe techniques for bonded wafers that includes a first wafer bonded with a second wafer, and a stress compensation layer in contact with the first wafer or the second wafer. The first wafer has a first stress level at a first location, and a second stress level different from the first stress level at a second location. The stress compensation layer includes a first material at a first location of the stress compensation layer that induces a third stress level at the first location of the first wafer, a second material different from the first material at a second location of the stress compensation layer that induces a fourth stress level different from the third stress level at the second location of the first wafer. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

A conductive joining material and conductive joined structure for joining two joining members by a joining layer using metal nanoparticles at the time of which even if there is a difference in the amounts of heat expansion due to a difference in linear thermal expansion coefficients between these two joining members and further use at a high temperature is sought, it is possible to adjust the amount of heat expansion of the joining layer to a suitable value between the two joining members to ease the thermal stress occurring at the joining layer and possible to sufficiently hold the joint strength between the two joining members are provided.

A conductive joining material containing metal nanoparticles, microparticles of a conductive material, and a solvent, wherein the conductive material forming the microparticles has a linear thermal expansion coefficient smaller than the linear thermal expansion coefficient of the metal forming the nanoparticles and the microparticles of conductive material have an average particle size of 0.5 to 10 m.
