A LED chip having first and second electrodes on opposite principal
surfaces, is bonded to a substrate through a composite bonding layer. The
composite bonding layer is formed when a support substrate including the
substrate and a first bonding layer is bonded to a lamination structure
including the LED, the first electrode and a second bonding layer. The
first or second bonding layer contains at least part of eutectic
composition. At least one of the support substrate and the lamination
structure includes a diffusion material layer. The composite bonding
layer is formed in such a manner that eutectic material contents are
mixed with the other to form a first mixture, and that the first mixture
is mixed with diffusion material to form a second mixture having a
melting point higher than a melting point of the first mixture.
