Abstract: An electroplating method that is a conventional method has had a problem that it is difficult to manufacture fine pillars without being affected by an undercut. Furthermore, an electroless plating method has had a problem that it is difficult to manufacture pillars having the same shape without any void. The inventors have performed intensive investigations to solve the above problems and, as a result, have found that fine conductive pillars with a high aspect ratio can be readily manufactured on a substrate having an electrode section in such a manner that after a conductive paste containing metal micro-particles is applied in a reduced pressure state, the conductive paste is exposed to standard pressure. The present invention has a particular effect on the manufacture of a metal pillar that is a terminal for flip-chip mounting.
