Abstract

A connected structure including: a first circuit member having a first electrode; a second circuit member having a second electrode; and a connecting portion provided between the first circuit member and the second circuit member and electrically connecting the first electrode and the second electrode to each other, wherein at least one of the first electrode and the second electrode has a layer made of Cu or Ag as an outermost surface thereof, and the connecting portion contains a conductive particle having a layer made of Pd or Au as an outermost surface thereof.

Claims (23)

1. A connected structure comprising:

a first circuit member comprising a first electrode;

a second circuit member comprising a second electrode; and

a connecting portion provided between the first circuit member and the second circuit member and electrically connecting the first electrode and the second electrode to each other,

wherein at least one of the first electrode and the second electrode comprises an outermost surface layer made of Cu,

wherein the connecting portion comprises a conductive particle comprising an outermost surface layer made of Pd or Au, and

wherein the outermost surface layer of the conductive particle has a thickness of 50 nm or less.

2. The connected structure according to claim 1 , wherein the outermost surface layer of the conductive particle is made of Pd.

3. The connected structure according to claim 1 , wherein the outermost surface layer of the conductive particle is made of Au.

4. The connected structure according to claim 1 , wherein the conductive particle additionally comprises:

a polymer particle as a core; and

an additional layer provided on the polymer particle,

wherein the outermost surface layer of the conductive particle is provided on the additional layer, and

wherein the additional layer has a thickness of 300 nm or less.

5. An adhesive composition comprising:

an adhesive component; and

a conductive particle,

wherein the adhesive composition is used for bonding a first circuit member comprising a first electrode and a second circuit member comprising a second electrode to each other and electrically connecting the first electrode and the second electrode to each other,

wherein the conductive particle comprises an outermost surface layer made of Pd or Au,

wherein at least one of the first electrode and the second electrode comprises an outermost surface layer made of Cu, and

wherein the outermost surface layer of the conductive particle has a thickness of 50 nm or less.

6. The adhesive composition according to claim 5 , wherein the outermost surface layer of the conductive particle is made of Pd.

7. The adhesive composition according to claim 5 , wherein the adhesive component comprises a thermoplastic resin.
