Abstract
The present disclosure provides methods to integrate pMUT arrays with an ASIC using solid liquid interdiffusion (SLID). In an aspect, the present disclosure provides a device comprising a first substrate and a second substrate, the first substrate comprising a pMUT device and the second substrate comprising an electrical circuit, wherein the first substrate and the second substrate are bonded together using a conductive bonding pillar, which conductive bonding pillar comprises one or more intermetallic compounds. In another aspect, the present disclosure provides a device comprising a first substrate and a second substrate, the first substrate comprising a pMUT device and the second substrate comprising an electrical circuit, wherein the first substrate and the second substrate are bonded together using a conductive bonding pillar, wherein the bonding is performed at a temperature less than the melting point of the conductive bonding pillar after the bonding.
