Abstract

Anodic bonding is a powerful technique used in MEMS manufacturing. This process is applied mainly for building three-dimensional structures for microfluidic applications or for wafer level packaging. Process conditions will be evaluated in present paper. An experimental solution for bonding three wafers in one single process step (“triple-stack bonding”) will be introduced.
