Abstract

A Pb-free Sn-based material part of a wiring conductor is provided at least at a part of its surface, and the Sn-based material part includes a base metal doped with an oxidation control element. The oxidation control element is at least one element selected from a group consisted of P, Ge, K, Zn, Cr, Mn, Na, V, Si, Ti, Al, Li, Mg and Ca. The wiring conductor is reflow processed, such that at least one of the Sn and the oxidation control element is diffused to form an alloy.
