Low temperature wafer direct bonding

Qin-Yi Tong, Cha, G., Gafiteanu, R., Gosele, U.·1994·Journal of Microelectromechanical Systems

Abstract

A pronounced increase of interface energy of room temperature bonded hydrophilic Si/Si, Si/SiO/sub 2/, and SiO/sub 2//SiO/sub 2/ wafers after storage in air at room temperature, 150/spl deg/C for 10-400 h has been observed. The increased number of OH groups due to a reaction between water and the strained oxide and/or silicon at the interface at temperatures below 110/spl deg/C and the formation of stronger siloxane bonds above 110/spl deg/C appear to be the main mechanisms responsible for the increase in the interface energy. After prolonged storage, interface bubbles are detectable by an infrared camera at the Si/Si bonding seam. Desorbed hydrocarbons as well as hydrogen generated by a reaction of water with silicon appear to be the major contents in the bubbles. Design guidelines for low temperature wafer direct bonding technology are proposed.>

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
