Circuit components (110,160) are joined using a copper-tin (Cu-Sn) alloy. A barrier layer/adhesion promoter (120) is sputtered on a bond connection surface (112) of a package component (110), a seed layer of copper (130) is applied thereon and a copper layer (140) is plated on the seed layer (130). The copper layer (140) is put in contact with a tin layer (150) by positioning a package component (160), having a layer of tin (150) thereon. The copper and tin layers (140,150) are heated to form a Cu-Sn alloy, melt the Cu-Sn alloy and react substantially all of the tin to form a Cu-Sn intermetallic compound (170) from the alloy, physically and electrically coupling components (110,160) together. Component (110) may be a semiconductor or integrated circuit substrate. Component (160) may be a leadframe or a circuit board. The barrier layer/adhesion promoter (120), the Cu seed layer (130) and the plated Cu layer (140) may be patterned. The tin layer (140) may alternatively be formed directly on the plated Cu layer (130).

The method includes forming a second metal thin film layer on a surface of the substrate; forming a die-bonding material layer on the second metal thin film layer; placing the LED chip on the die-bonding material layer with the first metal thin film layer contacting the die-bonding material layer; heating the die-bonding material layer at a liquid-solid reaction temperature for a pre-curing time, so as to form a first intermetallic layer and a second intermetallic layer; and heating the die-bonding material layer at a solid-solid reaction temperature for a curing time, so as to perform a solid-solid reaction. The liquid-solid reaction temperature and the solid-solid reaction temperature are both lower than 110°C, and a melting point of the first and second intermetallic layers after the solid-solid reaction is higher than 200°C.
