Abstract: A bonding tool includes a bonding monitoring system. The bonding monitoring system may include one or more sensors that are configured to generate bonding wave propagation data associated with a bonding operation. As a bond between a top semiconductor substrate and a bottom semiconductor substrate propagates from respective centers to respective perimeters of the top semiconductor substrate and the bottom semiconductor substrate, the one or more sensors of the bonding monitoring system generates the bonding wave propagation data. A controller that communicates with the one or more sensors receives the bonding wave propagation data from the one or more sensors. The controller may monitor the bonding wave propagation based on the bonding wave propagation data and/or may determine various performance parameters of the bonding operation, such as a bonding wave propagation rate and/or a bonding wave propagation uniformity, among other examples.

Abstract: An electronic device is provided, and the electronic device includes a base, a cover plate, and a bezel. The base has a sidewall where an opening portion is formed. An airflow selectively passes through the opening portion. The cover plate is pivotally connected to the base. The bezel is movably connected to the cover plate, wherein the bezel is rotated facing the opening portion selectively. The arrangement of the bezel may reduce the gap between the bezel and the down edge of the opening portion of the base, reducing the airflow flowing downward back to the heat-dissipation mechanism in the base. Therefore, the heat-dissipation efficiency of the electronic device is enhanced.
