Definition

Adeia's patented Direct Bond Interconnect (DBI®) hybrid-bonding technology, in which prepared dielectric surfaces bond directly and embedded metal pads form fine-pitch electrical interconnects without conventional solder bumps or adhesive underfill.

Application

Used for wafer-to-wafer, die-to-wafer and die-to-die 3D integration to create very fine-pitch copper interconnects with low-profile stacks and reduced interconnect parasitics; CMP, surface activation, alignment and thermal treatment are key process elements.
