An embodiment of the present invention provides a method for producing a bonded object. The method comprises a step for preparing a laminate in which a first member, a copper bonding paste, and a second member are laminated in order and a step for sintering the copper bonding paste under a pressure of 0.1-1 MPa. The copper bonding paste contains metal particles and a dispersion medium, wherein the content of metal particles is at 50 mass % or more with respect to the total mass of the copper bonding paste, and the metal particles contain 95 mass % or more of submicro copper particles with respect to the total mass of the metal particles.

An arrangement is disclosed. In one example, the arrangement of a conductor and an aluminum layer soldered together comprises a substrate and the aluminum layer disposed over the substrate. The aluminum forms a first bond metal. An intermetallic compound layer is disposed over the aluminum layer. A solder layer is disposed over the intermetallic compound layer, wherein the solder comprises a low melting majority component. The conductor is disposed over the solder layer, wherein the conductor has a soldering surface which comprises a second bond metal. The intermetallic compound comprises aluminum and the second bond metal and is predominantly free of the low melting majority component.

Disclosed is a method for transient liquid-phase bonding between metal materials using a magnetic force. In particular, in the method, a magnetic force is applied to a transient liquid-phase bonding process, thereby shortening a transient liquid-phase bonding time between the metal materials, and obtaining high bonding strength. To this end, an attractive magnetic force is applied to a ferromagnetic base while a repulsive magnetic force is applied to a diamagnetic base, thereby to accelerate diffusion. This may reduce a bonding time during a transient liquid-phase bonding process between two bases and suppress formation of Kirkendall voids and voids and suppress a layered structure of an intermetallic compound, thereby to increase a bonding strength.
