摘要: A previously developed laser spallation experiment to measure the tensile strength of thin film interfaces is extended quantify intrinsic bonded wafers. In this experiment, a generated compressive stress wave on back surface one wafer reflects into after reflecting from free second separate inter-wafer bond. Optical interferometery used in conjunction with mechanics simulation bond strength. The technique was study dependence annealing temperature which varied between 200 °C and 1100 °C. peak value 3.91 GPa reported at We show that measured values compares well bonding energies by alternate methods.
