Abstract
Methods and apparatus of hybrid bonding with inspection are provided herein. In some embodiments, a method of hybrid bonding with inspection includes: cleaning a substrate via a first cleaning chamber and a tape frame having a plurality of chiplets via a second cleaning chamber; inspecting, via a first metrology system, the substrate for pre-bond defects in a first metrology chamber and the tape frame for pre-bond defects in a second metrology chamber; bonding one or more of the plurality of chiplets to the substrate via a hybrid bonding process in a bonder chamber to form a bonded substrate; and performing, via a second metrology system different than the first metrology system, a post-bond inspection of the bonded substrate via a third metrology chamber for post-bond defects.
