Abstract
An electrical connecting method connects a first contact of a first object to a second contact of a second object. The electrical connecting method includes the steps of coating a Ga system liquid metal on at least one of the first and second contacts, where the Ga system liquid metal includes a predetermined weight percent of Bi, and contacting the first contact to the second contact via the Ga system liquid metal. The predetermined weight percent of Bi is selected such that the liquid state of the Ga system liquid metal is maintained when the first and second contacts make contact via the Ga system liquid metal.
