Popis: We bonded quantum well InP dies on a photonic layer transferred on silicon CMOS processed wafer using direct molecular bonding. This approach is suitable for new applications, viz., photonics on silicon, 3D packaging and integrated sensors. The chips are diced from a bulk substrate and bonded directly onto a silicon substrate without any organic nor metallic adhesive layer. A thin silicon dioxide layer can be added on both assembled surfaces to enhance bonding quality. After bonding, the dies can mechanically be thinned down to 20 μm and chemically etched. The InAsP quantum well stack of the InP dies keeps its optoelectronics features and performances after being transferred onto a silicon substrate.
