| 20100035052 | Polyimide substrate bonded to other substrate - Polyimide substrates are bonded to germanium wafers having an epitaxially grown III-V layer and a metal layer. The polyimide substrate and the Ge wafer are subsequently thinned by grinding and etching to reach a final thickness of 25 μms Ge on 25 μms adhesive layer on 50 μms polyimide substrate. The choice of adhesive is of paramount importance. There are several requirements for the adhesive layer to act as a permanent carrier of the thin fragile multijunction solar cell. The adhesive must remain flexible after curing and have a low CTE. It is desired to use an adhesive that cures without the addition of heat, preferably at room temperature. Furthermore, the adhesive layer should have a uniform thickness preferably less than 25 μms (1 mil) and be void-free. It is desired to use a clear adhesive which does not contain any particles in order to obtain a smooth uniform void-free bondline. However, clear adhesives have CTE's that are larger than 80 ppm/° C. and which can be as high as 200 ppm/° C. or more above the glass transition temperature. This is especially problematic for hard adhesives. The ideal adhesive is applied at room temperature but must withstand up to 250° C. during post-bond metallization of the front side of the solar cell. Another important parameter, which affects the ability to spread a liquid adhesive over a 4″ area is the viscosity. Some adhesives, like paste, may have favorable properties but are too thick to spread evenly over a 4″ wafer. Ideally the adhesive is applied either by spinning or spraying. These represent a set of conflicting requirements. There is not one adhesive that has all the desired properties. A thin bonded wafer is demonstrated which has an epi-layer and a metal layer. | 2010-02-11 |
