Abstract: The embodiments of the present invention relate to semiconductor device manufacturing, and more particularly, a method of temporarily bonding a semiconductor wafer to a wafer carrier with a multi-layered contact layer as well as a structure. A method is disclosed that includes: forming a first layer on a surface of a semiconductor wafer; forming a second layer on the first layer; bonding a perforated carrier to the second layer; and removing the semiconductor wafer from the perforated carrier. The first layer may be composed of an adhesive. The second layer may be composed of a material having a higher outgassing temperature than the first layer.
