A method of manufacturing a substrate layered body includes: a step of applying a bonding material to the surface of at least one of a first substrate or a second substrate; a step of curing the bonding material applied on the surface to form a bonding layer having a reduced modulus at 23° C. of 10 GPa or less; and a step of bonding the first substrate and the second substrate via the bonding layer formed.

In a method for connecting components during production of power electronics modules or assemblies, surfaces of the components have a metallic surface layer upon supply, or are furnished therewith, wherein the layer has a surface that is smooth enough to allow direct bonding or is smoothed to obtain a surface that is smooth enough to allow direct bonding. The surface layers of the surfaces that are to be connected are then pressed against each other with a pressure of at least 5 MPa at elevated temperature, so that they are joined to each other, forming a single layer. The method enables simple, rapid connection of even relatively large contact surfaces, which satisfies the high requirements of power electronics modules.
