Bonding structures and methods for forming the same

Abstract

A bonding structure is provided, including a first substrate; a second substrate disposed opposite the first substrate; a first bonding layer disposed on the first substrate; a second bonding layer disposed on the second substrate and opposite the first bonding layer; and a silver feature disposed between the first bonding layer and the second bonding layer. The silver feature includes a silver nano-twinned structure including parallel twin boundaries. The silver nano-twinned structure includes 90% or more [111] crystal orientation. A method for forming a bonding structure is also provided. Each of steps of forming a first silver feature and second silver feature includes sputtering or evaporation coating. Negative bias ion bombardment is applied to the first silver feature and second silver feature during sputtering or evaporation.
