Abstract
Direct bonding has been accomplished between silicon nitride coated wafers and both nitride coated and uncoated silicon wafers. Successful bonding occurred when the initial nitride was hydrophilic as deposited or the nitride surface is rendered hydrophilic by a wet oxidation process prior to bonding.
