Abstract

Provided is a mounting structure that can bond a first heat dissipation element to a second substrate through a hole in a first substrate without using a binder such as solder, an adhesive, or the like. A mounting structure of the present disclosure includes a first substrate ( 10 ) in which a penetrating hole ( 11 ) is formed, a second substrate ( 20 ) and a first heat dissipation element ( 30 ) overlapped with both surfaces of the first substrate ( 10 ), respectively, so as to cover the penetrating hole ( 11 ), and a second heat dissipation element ( 40 ) sandwiched and attached between the second substrate ( 20 ) and the first heat dissipation element ( 30 ) inside the penetrating hole ( 11 ).
