ABSTRACT:
A material for bonding a lid wafer to a device wafer, which includes an adhesive substance with rigid particles embedded in the adhesive substance. The rigid particles may be particles or spheres of alumina, silica, or diamond, for example. The adhesive substance may be glass frit, epoxy, glue, cement or solder, for example. When the adhesive is applied and melted, and pressure is applied between the lid wafer and the device wafer, the lid wafer approaches the device wafer until a minimum separation is reached, which is defined by the rigid particles.
