Abstract

A solder bump forming member including: a base substrate having a plurality of recesses; and solder particles in the recesses, in which the solder particle has an average particle diameter of 1 to 35 μm and a C.V. value of 20% or less, and a part of the solder particle projects from the recess, or in cross-sectional view, when a depth of the recess is designated as H 1 , and a height of the solder particle is designated as H 2 , H 1 <H 2 is established.

Claims (18)

1. A solder bump forming member comprising:

a base substrate having a plurality of recesses; and

a plurality of solder particles in the recesses, respectively, wherein;

each of the solder particles has an average particle diameter of 1 to 35 μm and a C.V value of 20% or less;

a part of each of the solder particles projects from the respective recess; and

each of the solder particles includes a planar portion in contact with a bottom portion of the respective recess.

2. A solder bump forming member comprising:

a base substrate having a plurality of recesses; and

a plurality of solder particles in the recesses, wherein:

each of the solder particles has an average particle diameter of 1 to 35 μm and a C.V value of 20% or less;

in cross-sectional view, when a depth of each of the recesses is designated as H 1 , and a height of the solder particle is designated as H 2 , H 1 <H 2 is established; and

each of the solder particles includes a planar portion in contact with a bottom portion of the respective recess.

3. The solder bump forming member according to claim 1 , wherein a distance between the recesses adjacent to each other is 0.1 times or more the average particle diameter of the solder particle.

4. The solder bump forming member according to claim 1 , wherein a ratio (A/B) of a diameter (A) of the planar portion to a diameter (B) of each of the solder particles is greater than 0.01 and less than 1.0.

5. The solder bump forming member according to claim 1 , wherein a ratio (A/B) of a diameter (A) of the planar portion to a diameter (B) of each of the solder particles is equal to or greater than 0.1 and equal to or less than 0.9.

6. The solder bump forming member according to claim 1 , wherein at least one alignment mark is provided on the base substrate to permit accurate transfer of the solder particles onto a base substrate having an electrode.

7. The solder bump forming member according to claim 1 , wherein each of the recesses has a depth H 1 , and each of the solder particles has a height H 2 , and a ratio of H 2 /H 1 is 1.02 to 3.00.

8. The solder bump forming member according to claim 1 , wherein the base substrate includes a base layer and a recess layer in which the recesses are formed, wherein the base layer supports the recess layer.
