An aluminum wire with which, at the time of bonding a bonding wire for a power semiconductor, the wire is not detached from a wedge tool, and a long life is achieved in a power cycle test. The aluminum wire is made of an aluminum alloy having an aluminum purity of 99 mass % or more and contains, relative to a total amount of all elements of the aluminum alloy, a total of 0.01 mass % or more and 1 mass % or less of iron and silicon. In a lateral cross-section in a direction perpendicular to a wire axis of the aluminum wire, an orientation index of is 1 or more, an orientation index of is 1 or less, and an area ratio of precipitated particles is in a range of 0.02% or more to 2% or less.

A method of forming a microelectronic device structure comprises coiling a portion of a wire up and around at least one sidewall of a structure protruding from a substrate. At least one interface between an upper region of the structure and an upper region of the coiled portion of the wire is welded to form a fused region between the structure and the wire.
