Abstract:
A method of making a semiconductor including soldering a conductor to an aluminum metallization is disclosed. In one example, the method includes substituting an aluminum oxide layer on the aluminum metallization by a substitute metal oxide layer or a substitute metal alloy oxide layer. Then, substitute metal oxides in the substitute metal oxide layer or the substitute metal alloy oxide layer are at least partly reduced. The conductor is soldered to the aluminum metallization using a solder material.

Claim (Index 19):
An arrangement of a conductor and an aluminum metallization soldered together, the arrangement comprising:\n a substitute metal layer or a substitute metal alloy layer disposed over the aluminum metallization, wherein a substitute metal of the substitute metal layer or of the substitute metal alloy layer is one of Zn, Cr, Cu, Pb, or Sn; and a solder layer arranged between the substitute metal layer or the substitute metal alloy layer and the conductor.
