Uniquely, CHI enables the integration of hydride and metalorganic sources into the bonding ambient with the ability to independently control wafer contact, force, and temperature in the bonding process, providing the capability to overcome challenging materials integration issues for a wide range of compound semiconductors. We demonstrate the advantages of CHI for direct bonding GaN with both native GaN substrates and GaN films on heterogeneous substrates (Al2O3 and Si).}, journal={Applied Physics Letters}, author={Markham, Keith and Melkun, Justin F. and Rabbani, Mohammad and Winkler, Chris R. and Little, Brian and DeFevere, Dennis C. and Vanderwater, Dave A. and Kish, Fred}, year={2025}, month={Dec} }
