Optimization of bonding parameters to develop a low temperature adhesive wafer bonding process for silicon was studied. SU-8 was used as the adhesive. The Key Process Input Variables were soft bake temperature, UV exposure and bonding temperature. The soft bake temperatures were 70 o C, 90 o C and 95 o C. UV exposure energies were 50 mJ/cm 2 , 100 mJ/cm 2 and 150 mJ/cm 2 and bonding temperatures of 90 o C, 115 o C and 140 o C were studied to optimize the curing process. The quality of the bonds was determined by two Key Process Output Variables: the fraction of interfacial area in intimate contact, measured by void area, and the strength of the bond interaction, measured by tensile strength. A general linear statistical model was used to determine the impact of the KPIVs on the KPOVs. The optimum conditions are soft bake temperature: 90 o C, UV exposure: 100 mJ/cm 2 and bonding temperature: 115 o C.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
