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.

The present invention includes: a position detection unit (55) detecting positions of semiconductor chips and storing each detected position in a position database (56); a position correction unit (57) outputting a corrected bonding position; and a bonding control unit (58) performing bonding of the semiconductor chips based on the corrected bonding position input from the position correction unit (57). The position correction unit (57) calculates position shift amounts between the semiconductor chips of respective stages and an accumulated position shift amount, and when the accumulated position shift amount is greater than or equal to a predetermined threshold value, corrects the position of the semiconductor chip by the accumulated position shift amount and outputs it as the corrected bonding position, and the bonding control unit (58) performs bonding of the semiconductor chip of the next stage at the corrected bonding position input from the position correction unit.

A method of preparation of a first surface of an electronic component, the first surface being intended to be bonded to another electronic component by a direct bonding and the first surface having previously been submitted to a surface treatment in an atmosphere including nitrogen, for example, a treatment in a nitrogen plasma or an ozone UV treatment, the preparation method including: placing into contact the first surface with an aqueous solution including at least 90% water, for a contacting duration longer than or equal to 30 minutes; and then drying the first surface.

A die bonding apparatus includes: a mounting base including a mounting area on which a first member is mounted; a heater arranged below the mounting base; a side wall configured to surround the mounting area; a collet configured to hold a second member by vacuum-chucking at an end portion; a lid including a hole, the lid being mounted on the side wall; a moving structure configured to move the collet to transport the second member held by the collet through the hole for bonding the second member to the first member; and a gas-supplying tube arranged on the side wall and configured to supply a heating gas to a heating space formed by the side wall and the lid. The lid contains a material capable of: reflecting an infrared radiation caused by the heater and the heating gas; or absorbing and re-radiating the infrared radiation.

At least one semiconductor chip or die is held within at a chip retaining formation provided in a chip holding device. The chip holding device is then positioned with the at least one semiconductor chip or die arranged facing a chip attachment location in a chip mounting substrate. This positioning produces a cavity between the at least one semiconductor chip or die arranged at the chip retaining formation and the chip attachment location in the chip mounting substrate. A chip attachment material is dispensed into the cavity. Once cured, the chip attachment material attaches the at least one semiconductor chip or die onto the substrate at the chip attachment location in the chip mounting substrate.

A method for bonding a first wafer onto a second wafer by molecular adhesion where the wafers have an initial radial misalignment between them. The method includes bringing the two wafers into contact so as to initiate the propagation of a bonding wave between the two wafers while a predefined bonding curvature is imposed on at least one of the two wafers during the contacting step as a function of the initial radial misalignment.

A bonding tool for bonding a semiconductor element to a substrate on a bonding machine is provided. The bonding tool includes a body portion including a contact region for contacting the semiconductor element during a bonding process on the bonding machine. The bonding tool also includes a standoff extending from the body portion, and configured to contact the substrate during at least a portion of the bonding process.
