There is provided a bonding material and a bonding method which enable lead-free bonding that can replace high-temperature soldering. The bonding material of the present invention comprises a dispersion in an organic solvent of composite metallic nano-particles having such a structure that a metal core of a metal particle having an average particle diameter of not more than 100 nm. The bonding material can be advantageously used in a stepwise bonding process containing at least two bonding steps. |
