Abstract :
A multiple internal transmission (MIT) technique was used for infrared (IR) spectroscopic investigations during annealing of the interfaces in room temperature Si-Si bonded wafers with different chemical pre-treatments. The evolution with annealing temperature of the chemical species at the interface are used to explain the bonding mechanism of Si wafers in the temperature range of 30-400°C.
