A composite assembly of three stacked joining partners, and a corresponding method. The three stacked joining partners are materially bonded to one another by an upper solder layer and a lower solder layer. An upper joining partner and a lower joining partner are fixed in their height and have a specified distance from one another. The upper solder layer is fashioned from a first solder agent, having a first melt temperature, between the upper joining partner and a middle joining partner. The second solder layer is fashioned from a second solder agent, having a higher, second melt temperature, between the middle joining partner and the lower joining partner. The upper joining partner has an upwardly open solder compensating opening filled with the first solder agent, from which, to fill the gap between the upper joining partner and the middle joining partner, the first solder agent subsequently flows into the gap.

A method of fabricating a display device may include disposing a display panel on a stage to be parallel to an XZ-plane defined by a horizontal X-axis and a vertical Z-axis, measuring a height of a first side surface of the display panel in a direction of the Z-axis, rotating the stage such that the first side surface is parallel to a reference horizontal line in case that a result of the measured height indicates that the first side surface includes an inclined surface, moving the display panel in a direction of the Z-axis such that a first pad disposed on the first side surface overlaps the reference horizontal line, and bonding a second pad of a printed circuit board with the first pad.

Techniques and mechanisms for bonding a first wafer to a second wafer in the presence of a fluid, the viscosity of which is greater than a viscosity of air at standard ambient temperature and pressure. In an embodiment, a first surface of the first wafer is brought into close proximity to a second surface of the second wafer. The fluid is provided between the first surface and the second surface when a first region of the first surface is made to contact a second region of the second surface to form a bond. The viscosity of the fluid mitigates a rate of propagation of the bond along a wafer surface, which in turn mitigates wafer deformation and/or stress between wafers. In another embodiment, the viscosity of the fluid is changed dynamically while the bond propagates between the first surface and the second surface.
