Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to methods of fabricating IC devices with IC structures with improved bonding between a semiconductor layer and a non-semiconductor support structure, as well as resulting IC devices, assemblies, and systems. An example method includes providing a semiconductor material over a semiconductor support structure and, subsequently, depositing a first bonding material on the semiconductor material. The method further includes depositing a second bonding material on a non-semiconductor support structure such as glass or mica wafers, followed by bonding the face of the semiconductor material with the first bonding material to the face of the non-semiconductor support structure with the second bonding material. Using first and second bonding materials that include silicon, nitrogen, and oxygen (e.g., silicon oxynitride or carbon-doped silicon oxynitride) may significantly improve bonding between semiconductor layers and non-semiconductor support structures compared to layer transfer techniques.

Embodiments of the present disclosure include method for sequentially mounting multiple semiconductor devices onto a substrate having a composite metal structure on both the semiconductor devices and the substrate for improved process tolerance and reduced device distances without thermal interference. The mounting process causes “selective” intermixing between the metal layers on the devices and the substrate and increases the melting point of the resulting alloy materials.
