Abstract
A metal-dielectric bonding method includes providing a first semiconductor structure including a first semiconductor layer, a first dielectric layer on the first semiconductor layer, and a first metal layer on the first dielectric layer, where the first metal layer has a metal bonding surface facing away from the first semiconductor layer; planarizing the metal bonding surface; applying a plasma treatment on the metal bonding surface; providing a second semiconductor structure including a second semiconductor layer, and a second dielectric layer on the second semiconductor layer, where the second dielectric layer has a dielectric bonding surface facing away from the second semiconductor layer; planarizing the dielectric bonding surface; applying a plasma treatment on the dielectric bonding surface; and bonding the first semiconductor structure with the second semiconductor structure by bonding the metal bonding surface with the dielectric bonding surface.
