Wafer-to-wafer bonding is an essential process step to enable 3D devices such as stacked DRAM, memory-on-logic and future CMOS image sensors. At the same time, minimizing the dimensions of TSVs, which ...
One of the contributors to layer-to-layer overlay in today’s chip manufacturing process is wafer distortion due to thin film deposition. Mismatch in the film specific material parameters (e.g., ...
