Review of Direct Metal Bonding for Microelectronic Interconnections
نویسندگان
چکیده
-Microelectronic interconnections require advanced joining techniques. Direct metal bonding methods, which include thercomsonic and thermocompression bonding, offer remarkable advantages over soldering and adhesives joining. These processes are reviewed in this paper. The progress made in this area is outlined. Some work concerned with the bonding modeling is also presented. This model is based on the joint interface mechanics resulting from compression. Both bump and substrate deformation are taken into account. The improved understanding of the relationship between the deformation and bonding formation may provide more accurate joint evaluation criterion.

Chip-to-chip interconnection, based on wireless communication by capacitive coupling was investigated. This innovative approach will considerably reduce the pitch of the pin and strongly help in the implementation of a dense network of interconnects, while improving inter-chip bandwidth and power dissipation. The 3D integration technology based on aligned wafer-to-wafer direct bonding technique...
متن کاملRole of impact ultrasound on bond strength and Al pad splash in Cu wire bonding
Cu wire is replacing Au wire in the microelectronic industry due to its lower cost. However, during Cu ball bonding one of the main challenges is the increased stress that can damage the pad and underpad layers. Past work showed that using ultrasound superimposed together with impact force (pre-ultrasound) results not only in a softer bonded ball, but also in a flatter ball/pad interface. In th...

Bullying and victimization have revealed to be a common problem in schools all over the world. Although the protective role of students' school bonding has been discussed regarding the behaviors contrary to school norms as bullying in the approaches referred to as the social control theory and social development model, little information is available regarding the problem of bullying. In this s...
متن کاملAir cooling of a microelectronic chip
A single-mask process is used to fabricate metal microchannels of 5–10 μm in width, 10–40 μm in height and millimeters in length, monolithically (i.e., no bonding) on the chip front side. Taking advantage of the small size and the diverging cross-section allowed for these microchannels, we explore the air cooling of a microelectronic chip, addressing the limitations of the liquid cooling with t...
