METHODS FOR BONDING SUBSTRATES

摘要

Methods for bonding substrates, forming assemblies using the same, along with improved methods for refurbishing said assemblies are disclosed that take advantage of at least one channel formed in an adhesive utilized to join two substrates to improve fabrication, performance and refurbishment of the assemblies. In one embodiment an assembly includes a first substrate secured to a second substrate by an adhesive layer. The assembly includes a channel having at least one side bounded by the adhesive layer and having an outlet exposed to an exterior of the assembly.
