Abstract

A three dimensional (3D) chip stack includes a first chip bonded to a second chip. The first chip includes a first bump structure overlying the first substrate, and the second chip includes a second bump structure overlying the second substrate. The first bump structure is attached to the second bump structure, and a joining region is formed between the first bump structure and the second bump structure. The joining region is a solderless region which includes a noble metal.
