Abstract

A method for producing a joined body includes: forming a coating film between a joining target member and a second joining target member, wherein the coating film is formed from a paste containing copper particles, and then heating the coating film to sinter the copper particles to form a joining layer; wherein the copper particles have an average primary particle size of 0.06 μm or more and 1.0 μm or less, and include copper particles having an increase rate of the crystallite size, (D2−D1)/D1×100, of 5% or more, where D1 represents the crystallite size (nm) at 150° C. and D2 represents the crystallite size (nm) at 250° C.; and the coating film is held at a heating temperature of 150° C. or more and 350° C. or less for 45 minutes or less to sinter the copper particles.

Claims (10)

1 . A method for producing a joined body, the method comprising:

forming a coating film between first and second target members to be joined, wherein the coating film is formed from a paste containing copper particles, and then

heating the coating film to sinter the copper particles to form a joining layer;

wherein

the copper particles have an average primary particle size of 0.06 μm or more and 1 μm or less, and include copper particles having an increase rate of a crystallite size, (D2−D1)/D1×100, of 5% or more, where D1 represents a crystallite size (nm) at 150° C. and D2 represents a crystallite size (nm) at 250° C.; and

the coating film is held at a heating temperature of 150° C. or more and 350° C. or less for 45 minutes or less to sinter the copper particles.

2 . The method for producing a joined body according to claim 1 ,

wherein the increase rate, (D2−D1)/D1×100, is 7.5% or more.

3 . The method for producing a joined body according to claim 1 ,

wherein the paste contains the copper particles in an amount of 60 mass % or more and 99 mass % or less.
