  • Publication number: 20150069539
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method of gettering that provides for a high efficiency gettering process by increasing an area in which a getter layer is deposited, and an associated apparatus. In some embodiments, the method is performed by providing a substrate into a processing chamber having one or more residual gases. A cavity is formed within a top surface of the substrate. The cavity has a bottom surface and sidewalls extending from the bottom surface to the top surface. A getter layer, which absorbs the one or more residual gases, is deposited over the substrate at a position extending from the bottom surface of the cavity to a location on the sidewalls. By depositing the getter layer to extend to a location on the sidewalls of the cavity, the area of the substrate that is able to absorb the one or more residual gases is increased.

    Abstract: A bonding layer of the first wafer article is thermally treated and a bonding layer of a second wafer article is thermally treated in accordance with first and second process parameters, respectively prior to bonding the first wafer article with the second wafer article. First and second grid distortion in the first and second wafer articles is measured and a difference is determined between the first and second grid distortions. A prediction is made for maintaining the difference within a prescribed tolerance. At least one of the first process parameters and the second process parameters can be conditionally varied in accordance with the prediction. The thermally treating of the first wafer article and the thermally treating of the second wafer article can then be performed with respect to another pair of the first and second wafer articles prior to bonding the another pair of wafer articles to one another through their respective bonding layers.
