A method for bonding an IC chip to a substrate where the method comprises the steps of providing an IC chip with a plurality of bumps each having a buffer layer and a conductive layer, providing a substrate having a plurality of conductive elements arranged corresponding to the plurality of bumps, placing a non-conductive film between the plurality of conductive devices and their corresponding bumps, and pressing and heating the IC chip and the substrate so that the plurality of bumps are in contact with the plurality of conductive elements respectively. The bonding structure is formed between a first and second substrate where the structure has a buffer layer having an opening and formed on the first substrate, a conductive layer formed on the buffer layer, and a non-conductive film formed between the conductive layer and the second substrate as a bonding medium for the bonding structure. |
