ABSTRACT:
A method of bonding components comprising the following steps. At least a first ceramic component and a second ceramic component are provided. A first conductive layer is formed over the upper surface of the first ceramic component. An intermediate film is formed over the first conductive layer. A second conductive layer is formed over the lower surface of the second ceramic component. The second ceramic component is stacked over the first ceramic component wherein the second conductive layer on the second ceramic component opposes the intermediate film on the first component. The first and second ceramic components are anodically bonded together.
