Abstract
Ion implantation was examined as a pre-treatment procedure for AlN substrates used for direct bonding with Cu. It replaces the conventional process of thermal oxidation. Ti, Fe and O ions were used at acceleration voltages of 15 and 70Â kV in the dose range between 1016 and 1018Â ions/cm2. Shear strength measurements of the prepared joints have shown that the optimum results are obtained for Ti implanted at 15Â kV to a dose of 5Ã1016Â ions/cm2. The bond strength attained for such conditions exceeds that of conventionally prepared joints by a factor of 5. The morphology of fractured joints was studied by SEM and discussed in terms of changes induced by the implanted ions.
