Abstract
Bumps each having a pointed tip end or grooves are formed on electrodes of a chip, and they pierce wiring layers of an insulating film substrate such as an interposer so as to tear an oxide film or a contaminated layer produced on the surface of each of wiring layers. A new interface of the material is enabled to be continuously produced between the bumps and the wiring layers, thus making it possible to obtain an excellent electrical connection among them.
