| 摘要 |
A method is provided for thermo-compression diffusion bonding first and second structured copper strain buffers, respectively, directly to the two opposed surfaces of a substrateless semiconductor device wafer. The expensive tungsten or molybdenum support plate conventionally used to provide structural integrity to the relatively fragile semiconductor device wafer is thus eliminated. The method includes sandwiching the semiconductor device wafer between copper strand type strain buffers each having a lateral extent greater than the lateral extent of the wafer, diffusion bonding the strain buffers to the semiconductor device via first and second metallic coating layers, and removing most of the overhanging portions of the buffer which are not bonded to the wafer. A step of etching and passivating the edges of the wafer is also disclosed.
