摘要
The plasma-assisted surface-activated bonding technique enables one to directly bond heterogeneous materials. The surface roughness of wafers is an important factor for achieving bonding The effects of precleaning and plasma surface activation processes on the surface roughness are investigated for silicon-on-insulator (SOI). Ce-substituted yttrium iron garnet (Ce YIG), InP and LiNbO3 We found that an appropriate precleaning process reduces the surface roughness Also, the oxygen plasma irradiation to the wafer surface for 10 or 30s smoothens the surfaces We achieved the bonding of SOI-Ce YIG with a strength greater than 1 8 MPa, which is sufficient for application to silicon waveguide optical isolators and circulators (C) 2010 The Japan Society of Applied Physics
