Abstract

A method for bonding a first substrate with a second substrate at respective contact faces of the substrates with the following steps: holding the first substrate to a first sample holder surface of a first sample holder with a holding force FH1 and holding the second substrate to a second sample holder surface of a second sample holder with a holding force FH2; contacting the contact faces at a bond initiation point and heating at least the second sample holder surface to a heating temperature TH; bonding of the first substrate with the second substrate along a bonding wave running from the bond initiation point to the side edges of the substrates, wherein the heating temperature TH is reduced at the second sample holder surface during the bonding.
