ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a device and method for automatically determining the surface quality of a bonding interface between two wafers. The device includes a detector for automatically detecting a bonding wave at a predetermined measuring site to determine when bonding occurs at the measuring site, and a processing unit for automatically calculating the bonding speed based on a location of the measuring site and at least one other predetermined site.
