Comparison of medium-vacuum and plasma-activated low-temperature wafer bonding

Two low-temperature wafer bonding methods, namely the medium-vacuum level wafer bonding (MVWB) and plasma-activated wafer bonding (PAWB), are performed. After low-temperature annealing(500°C) for a short time (<5h) , the bond strength of these two low-temperature methods is improved as compared...
