This paper describes on anodic bonding characteristics of MLCA(Multi Layer Ceramic Actuator) to Si-wafer using evaporated Pyrex #7740 glass thin-films for MEMS applications. Pyrex #7740 glass thin-films with same properties were deposited on MLCA under optimum RF magneto conditions(Ar 100 %, input power $1\;/cm^2$). After annealing in $450^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr, the anodic bonding of MLCA to Si-wafer was successfully performed at 600 V, $400^{\circ}C$ in - 760 mmHg. Then, the MLCA/Si bonded interface and fabricated Si diaphragm deflection characteristics were analyzed through the actuation test. It is possible to control with accurate deflection of Si diaphragm according to its geometries and its maximum non-linearity is 0.05-008 %FS. Moreover, any damages or separation of MICA/Si bonded interfaces do not occur during actuation test. Therefore, it is expected that anodic bonding technology of MICA/Si wafers could be usefully applied for the fabrication process of high-performance piezoelectric MEMS devices.

We prepared silicon on insulator(SOI) wafer pairs of Si/1800${\AA}$ -SiO$_2$ ∥ 1800${\AA}$ -SiO$_2$/Si using water direct bonding method. Wafer pairs bonded at room-temperature were annealed by a normal furnace system or a fast linear annealing(FLA) equipment, and the micro-structure of bonding interfaces for each annealing method was investigated. Upper wafer of bonded pairs was polished to be 50 $\mu\textrm{m}$ by chemical mechanical polishing(CMP) process to confirm the real application. Defects and bonding area of bonded water pairs were observed by optical images. Electrical and mechanical properties were characterized by measuring leakage current for sweeping to 120 V, and by observing the change of wafer curvature with annealing process, respectively. FLA process was superior to normal furnace process in aspects of bonding area, I-V property, and stress generation.

This paper shows the principles and characteristics of the transient liquid phase (TLP) bonding technology for power modules packaging. The power module is semiconductor parts that change and manage power entering electronic devices, and demand is increasing due to the advent of the fourth industrial revolution. Higher operation temperatures and increasing current density are important for the performance of power modules. Conventional power modules using Si chip have reached the limit of theoretical performance development. In addition, their efficiency is reduced at high temperature because of the low properties of Si. Therefore, Si is changed to silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN). Various methods of bonding have been studied, like Ag sintering and Sn-Au solder, to keep up with the development of chips, one of which is TLP bonding. TLP bonding has the advantages in price and junction temperature over other technologies. In this paper, TLP bonding using various materials and methods is introduced. In addition, new TLP technologies that are combined with other technologies such as metal powder mixing and ultrasonic technology are also reviewed.

SOI(silicon oninsulator) was fabricated through the direct bonding of a hydrophilized single crystal Si wafer and a thermally oxidized SiO2 thin film to investigate the stacking faults in silicon at the Si/SiO2 in-terface. At first the oxidation kinetics of SiO2 thin film and the stacking fault distribution at the oxidation interface were investigated. The stacking faults could be divided into two groups by their size and the small-er ones were incorporated into the larger ones as the oxidation time and temperature increased. The den-sity of the smaller ones based critically lower eventually. The SOI wafers directly bonded at the room temperature were annealed at 120$0^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. The stacking faults at the bonding and oxidation interface were examined and there were anomalies in the distributions of the stacking faults of the bonded region to arrange in ordered ring-like fashion.

This paper is concerned with the drawing process of $Al-1\%Si$ bonding wire. In this study, the finite-element model established in previous work was used to analyze the effect of various forming parameters, which included the reduction in area, the semi-die angle, the aspect ratio, the inter-particle spacing and orientation angle of the fine Si particle in drawing processes. The finite-element results gave the consolidation condition. From the results of analysis, the effects of each forming parameter were determined. It is possible to obtain the Important basic data which can be guaranteed in the fracture prevention of $Al-1\%Si$ wire by using FE-Simulation.

디바이스 소형화의 한계에 다다르면서, 이를 극복할 수 있는 방안으로 차세대 패키징 기술의 중요성이 부각되고 있다. 병목 현상을 해결하기 위해 2.5D 및 3D 인터커넥트 피치의 필요성이 커지고 있는데, 이는 신호 지연을 최소화 할 수 있도록 크기가 작고, 전력 소모가 적으며, 많은 I/O를 가져야 하는 등의 요구 사항을 충족해야 한다. 기존 솔더 범프의 경우 미세화 한계와 고온 공정에서 녹는 등의 신뢰성 문제가 있어, 하이브리드 본딩 기술이 대안책으로 주목받고 있으며 최근 Cu/SiO₂ 구조의 문제점을 개선하고자 SiCN에 대한 연구 또한 활발히 진행되고 있다. 해당 논문에서는 Cu/SiO₂ 구조 대비 Cu/SiCN이 가지는 이점을 전구체, 증착 온도 및 기판 온도, 증착 방식, 그리고 사용 가스 등 다양한 증착 조건에 따른 SiCN 필름의 특성 변화 관점에서 소개한다. 또한, SiCN-SiCN 본딩의 핵심 메커니즘인 Dangling bond와 OH 그룹의 작용, 그리고 플라즈마 표면 처리 효과에 대해 설명함으로써 SiO₂와의 차이점에 대해 기술한다. 이를 통해, 궁극적으로 Cu/SiCN 하이브리드 본딩 구조 적용 시 얻을 수 있는 이점에 대해 제시하고자 한다.

We investigated the possibility of direct bonding of the Si ∥SiO$_2$/Si$_3$N$_4$∥Si wafers for Oxide-Nitride-Oxide(ONO) gate oxide applications. 10cm-diameter 2000$\AA$-thick thermal oxide/Si(100) and 500$\AA$-Si$_3$N$_4$LPCVD/Si (100) wafers were prepared, and wet cleaned to activate the surface as hydrophilic and hydrophobic states, respectively. Cleaned wafers were premated wish facing the mirror planes by a specially designed aligner in class-100 clean room immediately. Premated wafer pairs were annealed by an electric furnace at the temperatures of 400, 600, 800, 1000, and 120$0^{\circ}C$ for 2hours, respectively. Direct bonded wafer pairs were characterized the bond area with a infrared(IR) analyzer, and measured the bonding interface energy by a razor blade crack opening method. We confirmed that the bond interface energy became 2,344mJ/$\m^2$ when annealing temperature reached 100$0^{\circ}C$, which were comparable with the interface energy of homeogenous wafer pairs of Si/Si.

This paper describes the formation of porous 3C-SiC by anodization. 3C-SiC thin films were deposited on p-type Si(100) substrates by APCVD using HMDS (Hexamethyildisilane: $Si_2(CH_3)_6$). UV-LED(380 nm) was used as a light source. The surface morphology was observed by SEM and the pore size was increased with increase of current density. Pore diameter of 70 ~ 90 nm was achieved at 7.1 $mA/cm^2$ current density and 90 sec anodization time. FT-IR was conducted for chemical bonding of thin film and porous 3C-SiC. The Si-H bonding was observed in porous 3C-SiC around wavenumber 2100 $cm^{-1}$. PL shows the band gap enegry of thin film (2.5 eV) and porous 3C-SiC (2.7 eV).

We have investigated the effects of various wafers cleaning on glass/Si bonding using 4 inch Pyrex glass wafers and 4 inch silicon wafers. The various wafer cleaning methods were examined; SPM(sulfuric-peroxide mixture, $H_2SO_4:H_2O_2$ = 4 : 1, $120^{\circ}C$), RCA(company name, $NH_4OH:H_2O_2:H_2O$ = 1 : 1 : 5, $80^{\circ}C$), and combinations of those. The best room temperature bonding result was achieved when wafers were cleaned by SPM followed by RCA cleaning. The minimum increase in surface roughness measured by AFM(atomic force microscope) confirmed such results. During successive heat treatments, the bonding strength was improved with increased annealing temperatures up to $400^{\circ}C$, but debonding was observed at $450^{\circ}C$. The difference in thermal expansion coefficients between glass and Si wafer led debonding. When annealed at fixed temperatures(300 and $400^{\circ}C$), bonding strength was enhanced until 28 hours, but then decreased for further anneal. To find the cause of decrease in bonding strength in excessively long annealing time, the ion distribution at Si surface was investigated using SIMS(secondary ion mass spectrometry). tons such as sodium, which had been existed only in glass before annealing, were found at Si surface for long annealed samples. Decrease in bonding strength can be caused by the diffused sodium ions to pass the glass/si interface. Therefore, maximum bonding strength can be achieved when the cleaning procedure and the ion concentrations at interface are optimized in glass/Si wafer direct bonding.

The degradation mechanism of soft magnetic properties of $Fe-Hf-N/Cr/SiO_2$ thin films reacted with a bonding glass was investigated. When $Fe-Hf-N/Cr/SiO_2$ films were annealed under $600^{\circ}C$ without the bonding glass, the compositions and the soft magnetic properties of Fe-Hf-N layers were not changed. However, after reaction with the bonding glass at $550^{\circ}C$, the soft magnetic properties of the film were degraded. At $600^{\circ}C$, the saturation magnetization of the reacted film decreased to 13.5 kG, and its coercivity increased to 4 Oe, and its effective permeability decreased to 700. It was founded that O diffused from the glass into the Fe-Hf-N layers during the reaction and generated $HfO_2$ phases. It was considered that the soft magnetic properties of the $Fe-Hf-N/Cr/SiO_2$ films reacted with the bonding glass were primarily degraded by the formation of the Fe-Hf-O-N layer of which the Fe content was below 60 $at\%$, and secondarily degraded by the Fe-Hf-O-N layer above 70 $at\%$.
