Abstract:
A method of making an assembly can include juxtaposing a top surface of a first electrically conductive element at a first surface of a first substrate with a top surface of a second electrically conductive element at a major surface of a second substrate. One of: the top surface of the first conductive element can be recessed below the first surface, or the top surface of the second conductive element can be recessed below the major surface. Electrically conductive nanoparticles can be disposed between the top surfaces of the first and second conductive elements. The conductive nanoparticles can have long dimensions smaller than 100 nanometers. The method can also include elevating a temperature at least at interfaces of the juxtaposed first and second conductive elements to a joining temperature at which the conductive nanoparticles can cause metallurgical joints to form between the juxtaposed first and second conductive elements.

Claim (Index 3):
The assembly of  claim 2 , wherein each bond region includes impurities that show structural evidence of first, second, third, fourth, and fifth layers of electrically conductive nanoparticles, the first and fifth layers of conductive nanoparticles penetrating at least partially into the first post and the second conductive element, respectively, the second and fourth layers of conductive nanoparticles each comprising at least one material different than at least one material comprising the first and fifth layers of conductive nanoparticles, respectively, each of the second and fourth layers of conductive nanoparticles including a barrier metal configured to prevent metal of the third layer of conductive nanoparticles from penetrating into the first and fifth layers of conductive nanoparticles.
