Bonding formation and gas absorption using Au/Pt/Ti layers for vacuum packaging
Abstract In this study, we developed a metal multilayer that can provide hermetic sealing after degassing the assemblies and absorbing the residual gases in the package. A package without a leak path was obtained by the direct bonding of the Au/Pt/Ti layers. After packaging, annealing at 450 °C caus...

Summary: | Abstract In this study, we developed a metal multilayer that can provide hermetic sealing after degassing the assemblies and absorbing the residual gases in the package. A package without a leak path was obtained by the direct bonding of the Au/Pt/Ti layers. After packaging, annealing at 450 °C caused thermal diffusion of the Ti underlayer atoms to the inner surface, which led to absorption of the residual gas molecules. These results indicated that a wafer coated with a Au/Pt/Ti layer can provide hermetic sealing and absorb residual gases, which can simplify vacuum packaging processes in the electronics industry. |
