Abstract

A selective laser micro bonding process using liquid glass (methylsilsesquioxane) was developed and the results are analysed. The liquid glass can be solidified with Nd:YAG laser irradiation and it can be applied for joining two glass substrates. A bonding thickness of a few micrometers can be achieved. The appropriate laser power density (or this process is around 40-60 $kW/cm^2$ and its bonding force is 1000-1200 $gf/mm^2$. This process can be applied for bonding micro devices such as micro bio-sensors or display products. Its advantages and limitations are presented and discussed.
