Abstract

A method for bonding of a first contact surface of a first substrate to a second contact surface of a second substrate according to the following steps: forming a reservoir in a surface layer on the first contact surface, at least partially filling the reservoir with a first educt or a first group of educts, contacting the first contact surface with the second contact surface for formation of a prebond connection, and forming a permanent bond between the first and second contact surface, at least partially strengthened by the reaction of the first educt with a second educt contained in a reaction layer of the second substrate.
