The present invention discloses flip-chip bonding method using an anisotropic adhesive polymer. The method includes applying an adhesive polymer solution containing metal particles dispersed therein onto a circuit substrate to form an adhesive polymer layer such that the adhesive polymer layer covers the metal particles; drying the adhesive polymer layer; and positioning an electronic element to be electrically connected to the circuit substrate on the dried adhesive polymer layer and causing dewetting of the polymer from the metal particles.

Systems and methods for controlling contamination during thermocompression bonding are provided herein. The tool generally includes a bondhead having a first channel extending in a lateral direction from a first port along a second side toward a perimeter of the bondhead. In several examples, the bondhead includes a second channel fluidly coupled to a second port and extending in a lateral direction along an inset surface of the bondhead, where the second channel at least partially surrounds the first channel. In other examples, the tool includes a vacuum manifold having a vacuum opening positioned laterally outward from the bondhead. A first flow unit is coupled to the first channel and is configured to withdraw air. A second flow unit is coupled to the second port or the manifold to withdraw fluid and prevent outgassing bonding materials from entering the first channel, depositing on the bondhead, and/or contaminating neighboring semiconductor components.

The method comprises the following successive steps: depositing sintering material (26) onto one of an electronic component (28) and a substrate (30); heating the material (26) so as to bring a temperature of the material to a preliminary exothermic peak, which precedes an exothermic sintering peak, without the temperature of the material reaching a maximum of the preliminary exothermic peak; fastening the other of the component (28) and the substrate (30) to the material (26) so that the material is interposed between the component and the substrate; and pressing the material (26) while hot so as to cause it to creep.

A method for binding a micro device to a substrate is provided. The method includes: locally showering a gas on a portion of the substrate, wherein the gas has a water vapor pressure higher than an ambient water vapor pressure; and placing the micro device over the portion of the substrate after a part of water in the gas is condensed to form a liquid layer on the portion of the substrate and contacting the micro device with the liquid layer, so that the micro device is gripped by a capillary force produced by the liquid layer and is substantially held in a position within a controllable region on the substrate.

A method of printing transferable components includes pressing a stamp including at least one transferable semiconductor component thereon on a target substrate such that the at least one transferable component and a surface of the target substrate contact opposite surfaces of a conductive eutectic layer. During pressing of the stamp on the target substrate, the at least one transferable component is exposed to electromagnetic radiation that is directed through the transfer stamp to reflow the eutectic layer. The stamp is then separated from the target substrate to delaminate the at least one transferable component from the stamp and print the at least one transferable component onto the surface of the target substrate. Related systems and methods are also discussed.

An apparatus and a method for chip-to-wafer integration is provided. The apparatus includes a coating module, a bonding module and a cleaning module. The method includes the steps of placing at least one chip on a wafer to form an integrated product, forming a film on the integrated product, such that the integrated product is substantially fluid-tight, and exerting a predetermined positive pressure on the film during permanent bonding of the at least one chip to the wafer. The method further includes the step of removing the film from the integrated product after permanent bonding of the at least one chip to the wafer.

A process for flip chip packaging includes: preparing a chip provided with a plurality of conductive bumps; preparing a wiring substrate, on which a respective welding pad is configured correspondingly to each of the conductive bumps; spraying a welding flux on each of the welding pads by utilizing a 3D array nozzle printing device; flipping and aligning the chip, and performing a metal welding operation to form a flip chip package structure; filling a liquid material to cover a substance to be cleaned on the wiring substrate; placing the flip chip package structure in a closed processing chamber, and heating the processing chamber to a predetermined temperature; and generating intermittent increasing/reducing pressure and/or intermittent vacuumizing for a gas in the processing chamber with a pressure increasing/reducing device and/or a vacuum generator, so that the substance to be cleaned is taken away from the wiring substrate.

A bonding apparatus includes a first holder, a second holder, a first interferometer, a housing, a gas supply and an airflow control cover. The first holder attracts and holds the first substrate. The second holder attracts and holds the second substrate. The first interferometer measures, by radiating light to the second holder or a first object which is moved along with the second holder in the first horizontal direction, a distance to the second holder or the first object in the first horizontal direction. The housing accommodates therein the first holder, the second holder and the first interferometer. The gas supply is provided at a lateral side of the housing, and supplies a gas into the housing. The airflow control cover is provided within the housing, and redirects a part of a flow of the gas supplied from the gas supply toward a first path of the light.

A chip bonding apparatus, includes: a body; a substrate conveyor installed on the body to transfer a substrate; a bonding head conveyor disposed on an upper surface of the body; an alignment unit installed on the body and adjusting a position of the substrate and a position of a chip; and a bonding head installed in the bonding head conveyor and moved and attaching a chip therebelow, wherein the bonding head is provided with a chip bonding unit for attaching the chip in a lower end portion thereof, wherein the chip bonding unit, includes: a chip bonding unit body having an installation groove formed therein; a pushing module having one end portion inserted in the installation groove; and an attachment module having a deformable member deformed by the pushing module; wherein the deformable member is provided with a deformable portion which is deformed by being pressed by the pushing module, and having a bottom surface in contact and exerting a force on the chip to bond the chip to the substrate.
