Abstract:
A first contact surface of a semiconductor laser chip can be formed to a first target surface roughness and a second contact surface of a carrier mounting can be formed to a second target surface roughness. A first bond preparation layer comprising a first metal can optionally be applied to the formed first contact surface, and a second bond preparation layer comprising a second metal can optionally be applied to the formed second contact surface. The first contact surface can be contacted with the second contact surface, and a solderless securing process can secure the semiconductor laser chip to the carrier mounting. Related systems, methods, articles of manufacture, and the like are also described.
Abstract:
A method of integrating a first substrate having a first surface with a first insulating material and a first contact structure with a second substrate having a second surface with a second insulating material and a second contact structure. The first insulating material is directly bonded to the second insulating material. A portion of the first substrate is removed to leave a remaining portion. A third substrate having a coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) substantially the same as a CTE of the first substrate is bonded to the remaining portion. The bonded substrates are heated to facilitate electrical contact between the first and second contact structures. The third substrate is removed after heating to provided a bonded structure with reliable electrical contacts.

Abstract:
Method for producing a composite structure comprising the direct bonding of at least one first wafer with a second wafer, and comprising a step of initiating the propagation of a bonding wave, where the bonding interface between the first and second wafers after the propagation of the bonding wave has a bonding energy of less than or equal to 0.7 J/m2. The step of initiating the propagation of the bonding wave is performed under one or more of the following conditions: placement of the wafers in an environment at a pressure of less than 20 mbar and/or application to one of the two wafers of a mechanical pressure of between 0.1 MPa and 33.3 MPa. The method further comprises, after the step of initiating the propagation of a bonding wave, a step of determining the level of stress induced during bonding of the two wafers, the level of stress being determined on the basis of a stress parameter Ct calculated using the formula Ct=Rc/Ep, where: Rc corresponds to the radius of curvature (in km) of the two-wafer assembly and Ep corresponds to the thickness (in μm) of the two-wafer assembly. The method further comprises a step of validating the bonding when the level of stress Ct determined is greater than or equal to 0.07.
