I-II (Autumn 2018), I-II (Autumn 2019)
Learning Outcomes (valid 01.08.2018-31.07.2020):
After the course the student is familiar with the 3D-integration processes and typical materials used in microsystem integration and is able to compare the advantages and disadvantages of different methods.The student will also gain knowledge about the properties of materials used and their compatibility issues in manufacturing of electronic systems. Advanced production processes and their effect on the quality and reliability must be understood. Special
emphasis is placed on experimental design as well as acquisition and critical analysis of information.
Content (valid 01.08.2018-31.07.2020):
The focus is in 3D-integration and interconnection technologies for MEMS/ASIC, sensor systems and power components. The knowledge gained in the lectures will be deepend through home work exercises. After the lecture series, advanced wafer-level interconnection technology will be developed in groups. Design of experiment (DoE) for bonding will be used and the full process from lithography to wafer bonding will be conducted. After mechanical and strcutural characterization of the bonded samples, improvement areas are identified and a new experiment will be setup to verify the planned improvement action.
