Wafer Bonding,3D Integration

Wafer bonding is a key technology for 3D integration in advanced AI chips. However, edge voids localized near the wafer periphery degrade yield and reliability and can act as origins of chipping and cracking during wafer thinning. In this presentation, we measure bond-front propagation and examine how variations in bonding dynamics affect the location and morphology of edge voids. We then compare the experimental observations with bonding simulations to discuss the underlying formation mechanism.
