Abstract
Methods and systems for joining photonic components. A method includes suspending nano-particles in a medium, wherein the nano-particles include metal nano-particles. The method further includes applying a layer of the nano-particle medium to a first substrate, and exposing the layer of nano-particle medium to a thermal process to remove at least a portion of the medium and expose the nano-particles. A second substrate is placed on the nano-particles in alignment with the first substrate, and a heat is applied to the nano-particles to cause connection of contact points between adjacent nano-particles to cause a secure alignment of the first and second substrates. The heat applied to the layer of nano-particles is less than 300° C.
