Abstract

Improving wafer-to-wafer bonding alignment. Determining planar distortions of the bonding surface of a host wafer. Mounting a donor wafer on a bonding chuck by a plurality of fixation points, the bonding chuck including multiple zones capable of movement relative to each other. Distorting the bonding surface of the donor wafer by moving the zones of the bonding chuck relative to each other to cause distortions of the bonding surface of the donor wafer such that the distortions of the donor wafer bonding surface correspond to the determined planar distortions of the host wafer bonding surface.
