The constitution of a material or a wafer can be described on the basis of its shape and its mechanical, chemical and physical surface finish. Subsurface damage is also of importance with respect to direct bonding applications. Different polishing strategies have been evaluated for polishing the surfaces of different materials to a finish suitable for direct bonding. Optical elements can be polished by means of mechanical polishing; refractory metals by means of dedicated mechanical polishing; III–V compounds by means of chemical polishing; semiconductors by means of tribochemical, i.e. chemomechanical polishing; hard materials by means of enhanced tribochemical polishing; noble metals by means of organo-liquid-supported tribochemical polishing; non-noble metals by means of oxidation-stimulated polishing. After such preparative treatments the material or wafer has to be cleaned, using a suitable method. Certain aspects of the bonding phenomenon itself will also be discussed in this paper.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101018,"journal":{"name":"Philips Journal of Research","volume":"49 1","pages":"Pages 23-46"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/0165-5817(95)82002-7","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86412660","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For the first requirement we review some of the work on robustness and discuss one specific technique, spectral normalization, in more detail. The requirement of real-time response has to be considered in the light of the limited hardware resources in voice control applications, which are due to the tight cost constraints.

In the surface-preparation process, tribo-chemical polishing is an essential step. Polymeric materials such as polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), polyarylate, polyimide and polycarbonate were bonded either to themselves, to another polymer or to an inorganic material such as silicon or fused silica. The surfacial bond energy of the room temperature bond is surprisingly high: 0.1–0.2 J/m<sup>2</sup>. Heating strengthens the direct bond; for example, for a bonded PMMA/PMMA wafer pair annealed at the glass-transition temperature of PMMA (105°C), the surfacial bond strength increases to 7.8 J/m<sup>2</sup>. This indicates that the bonded surfaces are fused and are interlinked by chemical bonds. When polymers are bonded to low-thermal-expansion materials such as Si and fused silica, during annealing treatments, thermal stresses can induce fracturing of the inorganic part of the bonded wafer pair. By limiting the maximum annealing temperature or the size of the bonded area, fracturing can be avoided.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101018,"journal":{"name":"Philips Journal of Research","volume":"49 1","pages":"Pages 139-149"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/0165-5817(95)82007-8","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88393680","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
