Eutectic bonding refers to a type of bonding that occurs in materials, particularly in the context of eutectic alloys where a specific composition of two or more components melts and solidifies at a lower temperature than that of any of the individual components. The term "eutectic" itself comes from Greek, meaning "easily melted." In eutectic systems, when cooled from a liquid state, these materials solidify in a particular microstructure, forming a mixture of distinct phases.
