Embodiments of the present disclosure include a method of forming an electronic assembly with a mesh bond layer. The method may include forming a mesh bond material comprising a first surface spaced apart from a second surface by a thickness of the mesh bond material and one or more openings extending from the first surface through the thickness of the mesh bond material to the second surface. The method may further include adjusting at least one of: the thickness of the mesh bond material, a geometry of the one or more openings, or a size of the one or more openings of the mesh bond material, where the adjusting modifies a Young's modulus of the mesh bond material, and bonding the first surface of the mesh bond material to a surface of a semiconductor device.
