AI Technical Summary
Existing wafer bonding equipment has difficulty effectively reducing the contact between the bonding surface and the wafer carrier during the loading process, which leads to contamination. Furthermore, it cannot stably support the second wafer, affecting alignment accuracy and bonding quality.
A wafer carrier is designed, including a support base and a switching component arranged around it. By switching the position of the moving base, differentiated loading and alignment of a first wafer with the bonding surface facing down and a second wafer with the bonding surface facing up can be achieved. The limiting component abuts against the sidewall of the wafer to reduce contact contamination of the bonding surface, and a stable support is achieved through negative pressure adsorption.
It improves the alignment accuracy and quality stability of wafer bonding, reduces contamination on the bonding surface, enhances bonding efficiency and product yield, and meets the versatility and applicability requirements of wafer carriers.
